Tire pressure gauge
Looking to upgrade to a high quality tire pressure gauge. I currently have an economical digital unit from Jegs but I want something a little bit more accurate for track use. Prefer digital, Made in USA units. Any suggestions?

I have this one and love it. Don't ever use the glow in the dark feature but the numbers are clear and the button to let out air, let's out a lot of air fast. Although it's not digital, I would still recommend it

Try a Snap On/Blue Point 0-60 PSI unit it’s 130 bucks I think.

After a lot of research I picked up this Intercomp 4", easy to read 0-60 psi gauge. Also bought a check valve that retains the pressure. Both for just under $100 from Pegasus Auto Racing Supplies. Great service so I picked up a few other items while I had the coin purse open.

Nice. Great choice I think as well. I purchased the Intercomp Tire gauge for the tow vehicle (Sierra 3500). Went with that one that had up to 100psi on it because the rears need to be at 80. Works great. Completely forgot to recommend them and also forgot they made the smaller one too until I saw your post

Just curious how your new and old gauges read compared to each other throughout pressure ranges? Same, few lbs higher/lower throughout range. Thanks |

I did a random sample on three of my vehicles and the new gauge reads about a 1/2 psi higher than the Jegs gauge in the 30 - 35 psi range. FWIW it reads 1 - 2 psi higher than the TPMS readings on both Camaros.
