Best Tire Gauge

What is the best value on a good tire gauge? Anybody?

Most of the better quality guages can be adjusted. Just because it's accurate at 70 degrees, doesn't mean it will be at 40 degrees. You need to be sure it can be calibrated.

Air Pressure Guages

Very good question. I got a "nice" dial guage at Camperworld but have not calibrated it (who does) properly. On tv they've said the nascar guys have guages that cost hundreds. I've looked at Summit & Jegs but their's don't go high enough.
If I discover a good guage at a fair price I'll post.

One must assume that said guage will be used. :wink:

I picked up one 10 months ago at the parts store, gave $20.00 for it, now it's time to replace it. Anyone have any good places to get one.

Forgive me, but what does the temperature, has to do with the accuracy of the tire gauge?
I know the air pressure does change, but gauge... :roll:
