boxkita Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 As long as you use the same tire gauge for all your measurements, the readings will be consistent. That said, the $1.99 gauge I got from harbor freight has worked well for the last year at the track. It reads consistently 4 psi less than the tire vendor's $200 gauge. If I had spare bux, I'd get the longacre gauge. Build my car Boxkita Track days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soloz2 Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 I was about to order a LongAcre gauge, but decided to grab a Joes Racing gauge instead. At $20 less I figured It was worth a shot. Good reviews and I had $10 credit on Amazon so it only set me back $17. I can always return it and get a LongAcre or Morosco if I don't like it. While there I ordered a Jade Bonsai for my wife. I hate buying flowers as they die... Hoping she doesn't kill the tree ;-). And BTW, I love Prime!

soloz2 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Got the gauge yesterday and tried it out this morning. I wasn't thrilled that it was shipped in a bubble mailer :-( it appeared to be unscathed though. The gauge is very easy to read. I wish it held the reading, but that's not really a huge deal. The ability to bleed the tires is nice. I did notice that you have to hold it carefully or it will leak at the steam. It came with a ball version too so I think I'll try it out.
