Pencil Type Tire Gauge - 100PSI This instant


I bought several of these gauges since they were so incredibly cheap at $.88/each. The shipping was expensive relative to the cost of just 1 gauge but didn't increase when I ordered more than one. A pencil-type tire pressure gauge should give consistent readings. I have an old Acme pencil-type and it is very consistent. I took 2 consecutive readings with the Acme and it read 37 psi both times. I opened the first new package and the first use of this Michigan Ind. gauge gave a reading of 40 psi on the tire. I then took 10 more consecutive readings on the same tire with the same gauge with 4 seconds between each. The next was 36 psi, then 42 psi, then 32 psi, then 40 psi, then 34 psi...you get the drift. I threw this piece of junk in the garbage.
I then opened another one of these Michigan Ind. gauges and tested it. THIS one gave VERY consistent readings at 36 psi each time on my second tire. While there is a lifetime guarantee on this item, it's not worth the shipping cost to return it. Buy a dozen so you'll get some that work! I bought a few pencil-type gauges (Slime, NAPA) at local auto parts stores, and had to return them for very inconsistent readings, and they cost a lot more money.Get more detail about Pencil Type Tire Gauge - 100PSI.

McGard 65557BK Chrome/Black SplineDrive Wheel Installation Kit (M12 x 1.5 Thread Size) - For 5 Lug Wheels Best Quality


I have a set of chrome McGards on my Subaru that have served me flawlessly for years. When it came time to get lugs for my Honda I did not hesitate to get them again. Neither should you. These should not be confused with cheap, oddly colored, mystery-alloy 'tuner' lugs. These are the real deal. They're not featherweight, but I'm not much for thinking that lug nuts are a very practical place to shave weight. I want lugs that I can trust, and these fill the bill. They're extremely well made, the finish is impermeable, and they secure and protect your wheels just as they should.Get more detail about McGard 65557BK Chrome/Black SplineDrive Wheel Installation Kit (M12 x 1.5 Thread Size) - For 5 Lug Wheels.

Airpower America 7500 Volume Tire Pump Buy Now


I purchased this pump because I wanted an alternative to an air compressor that could/would drain my car battery or be in a situation trying to find an electrical outlet to plug it into.

Well, the day finally came..... The air in my tire was low so I decided to test out my new pump and the only thing I seem to accomplish was to drag the piston out of the tube when I pumped with all my might. I kept checking the pressure within the tire and saw no difference so...


At this time I would not recommend this product but maybe with time and practice I will change my review.....Get more detail about Airpower America 7500 Volume Tire Pump.

Cheap Hopkins 30100VA nVision Tire Pressure Monitoring System


I installed this system on my motorhome, 3 of the 6 sending units would not send a signal. Two of the units continually leaked air. After about 2 days tire presure would go from 110psi to about 20psi. I am taking it back to the store that I purchased it from. I would rather take my chances than have something that causes flats.Get more detail about Hopkins 30100VA nVision Tire Pressure Monitoring System.

Buying Slime Digital Tire Presta Valve Pressure Gauge


Worked pretty good at first. I was sorry to see it go so soon. It was only good for a few trips to the station to check tire pressure. The cheap green plastic around the tip broke and no longer formed a proper seal to measure pressure.Get more detail about Slime Digital Tire Presta Valve Pressure Gauge.

Purchase Powerflow 6417 Pro-Fit Truck Splashguard


I have purchased Power Flow mud flaps before and they were a two-piece system made of a hard plastic that were a pain to put together and did not last to long. The new flaps are great made of a firm rubber and a one piece. They work and look great. Get more detail about Powerflow 6417 Pro-Fit Truck Splashguard.
