Question

I am looking at buying a decent tyre pressure guage, after regularly finding that every time I use a forecourt airline, the readings seem to vary so much.

Even the guage on my footpump seem to have a mind of its own.
Anybody any ideas as to which would be a good buy, and where I could get one?

There seem to be a fair few on the market with big differences in price.
Any help would be most welcome.

Cheers
Steve

Got a 'alfords digital one. About a tenner. Digital readout, quite small but plastic... Not bad though.

I think the Accutire gauge is also sold by Halfords under their own brand name in some branches. I have the Halfords gauge and it looks like the same as the one in the DT catalogue. And it's great!

Thanks for responding,chaps.

I'll be sorting myself out with one over the weekend, now the choice seems somewhat easier.

Cheers
