A survey by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that 27 percent of cars and 32 percent of vans,
pickups and SUV's had at least one tire that was under inflated.
Eight percent of light trucks and 3 percent of cars had all four tires under inflated!
This survey estimates low tire pressure kills as many as 79 people a year with as many as 10,635 people at year injured.
Under inflated tires also wear out more quickly and reduce fuel efficiency.
There are many tire pressure gauges around from standard ones to digital ones. Below you will see just a few.

AccuTire Digital Mechanics Gauge |
It offers a measurement range of 5 to 99 PSI which will cover everything except the biggest truck and motorhome tires.
Accutire calls this their Mechanics Gauge but that's a rather mundane name for such a sleekly styled tool.
The rugged, aluminum housing is finished at both ends with shockproof, rubber guards.
The extra large, backlit LCD display is worth a special mention. You can read this gauge easily in direct sunlight or the
dead of night.

- Great for hard to reach tires on trucks and RVs.
- 5-160 psi.
- Dual foot chuck.
- Push button valve bleeds air to desired pressure.
