OK guy's I need to buy myself a new tire gauge,
and need something in the 0 to 30 lbs range,
can't decide which way to go or what brand to
buy, so need some real world experience on who's
is the best now /
I have a moroso I have had for a long time, but
it only goes to 15 lbs, need one that goes a little
more in poundage, most of the one's I have looked at
are crappy looking, but do they work like the old
stuff does.
Thanks
Dave

We use Intercomp and Moroso gauges for the rear and front respectively.

IMO you need 2 gauges, one for in front and one in the rear.
Does anyone use this one?
This is what I have, It's the most consistent one I've found

I like to keep things simple,but you just can not beat a good quality Digital gauge.You can set your rear slicks a 6.1 lbs & you front runners at 40.2 lbs if you so desire.It does not get any better than being able to change your air pressure by .1 at a time.
PS the only Bad if there is one about a Digital gauge is the price,but it is $$$ well spent.

I use a Moroso Digital 0-60#, it reads to .1# and is backlit. Since a lot of my racing is at night, thats handy to have.

Joes for under $30 is a great gauge available Jegs etc long enough hose, good end, glow n dark face --very decent for the $$ Tire gauges are simple units--they all work good ---if hose end is nice ( NOT like an airchuck)--they all work better in the middle of their range--grab a Joes for cheap --you will be happy High $$ units May be needed on the space shuttle but you are wasting bucks for an old bracket car--keep that $$ in your jeans
