This gauge may (or may not) work well for higher pressure tires, but it consistently reads 4psi on my passenger tires at 36psi. In addition, the pressure gauge measures in two psi increments, giving less accurate readings. You can get a better, more accurate pencil gauge at Home Depot for about $5 less. I bought a Husky brand pressure gauge for a little over $3 and compared to other gauges I own it is well worth the money. I kicked Milton out.
