I got an OpLock dial gauge.. works well
Even has a protective casing... was fairly cheap too

I once used a cheap digital gauge off eBay.. DONT! :lol:

You would take a reading, say 34psi... You then do the same tyre again, and it would say like 20psi... then 15psi.. then 38psi.. etc etc :roll:
Was rubbish.
Same thing with one from BigW also.

Tandy/Dick Smith had an 'Accutyre' digital pressure gauge which my dad bought, and it is a ripper! They stopped making and selling them tho :?
