Basic Digital 2 Inch Tire Gauge

Can you go faster with the right amount of air? Yes you can! Tire pressure, while simple on the surface, creates any variables and tire managers would be well served to be aware of the changes that can occur when filling up your tires. Tire pressure has an affect on spring rate, cross weight, and the tire footprint. Air pressure is a significant adjustment and top teams knows that the importance of air pressure is equal to springs, shocks, geometry, as well as available chassis adjustments.

Selecting the proper tire pressure gauge is paramount to proper air pressure. You must have an accurate and repeatable gauge. Gauges are typically supplied in 15 lb, 30 lb, and 60 lb ranges. Be sure ti select the lowest tire pressure range that fits the actual range of your tires.

Tire pressure gauges are precision instruments that need to be handled with care. Dropping gauges can damage the internal components and have a detrimental effect on accuracy. If you know you have dropped your gauge, check it against a known accurate gauge and verify if you are still getting correct readings. Use your racing gauge only on race tires. Trailer tires run higher pressure and you should have a separate gauge for those applications.

You must also decide on gauge size. Bigger analog gauges are easier to read and you want to choose gauges that show the most resolution. Which ever you decide, make sure to purchase a high quality and accurate gauge from a proven source.

Digital tire pressure gauges can increase accuracy and resolution, but be careful and realize that digital accuracy comes at a price. Digital models can increase resolution allowing you to make subtle changes right down to 1/10th of a pound.
