Tire Pressure Gauge

Featured Replies

Where in Pattaya can I buy a cheap one of these. I'm fed up with Motorcycle shops making the tire so hard I bounce all over the road. Or can anyone recommend a shop that uses a gauge.

Bought mine in Big C - South

I got one of the "stick" type in Tesco.

 

It's not always about absolute accuracy if you use the same gauge every time.

"I don't want to know why you can't. I want to know how you can!"

Most filling stations have surely? 

Buy a foot pump with pressure gauge. Try Lazada

They might have them at the DIY shops.

I am  not in Pattaya, but the same level of intelligence probably applies wherever u are in Thailand. I constantly have a problem with my little Suzuki step when I go to my local Honda Greenwing garage , they always seem to put about 60 psi in, I think it is them mistaking Kilograms for pounds, they just look at the outer ring of the gauge and thats it.

 

Took my Honda CB to town yesterday for an oil change, and this kid comes out with the air hose, I just told him to pisss off, just change the oil, that's enough of a challenge.

I was going to Big C tomorrow anyway ,so thanks for that.

If you don't have any luck in Big C, there are 2 auto "accessory" kiosks outside (one by the entrance to the car park under the building, the other is to the left of the left entry doors in that car park).
They may have some cheap type of tire pressure gauges there.

If all else fails - here is a decent one on Lazada.
(I have my own air compressor and gauges as my tires are always losing air for some reason.)

Your tires are always 'losing air' ( pressure ) due to the heat ( i've asked this before ).

 

You ( or anyone else ) should only pump up tires to OEM pressure when they are cold ( or as not hot ) as it gets here ( ie first thing in the morning ).

Mr DIY 29 THB

I bought mine in this big shop or market, behind of Central Marina. https://goo.gl/maps/6U25XRTVMcaB5nHQ9

BTW, has Mr DIY opened again? In Tesco Lotus, Pattaya Nua, it still was closed recently.

Big-C, Homepro, Tesco, any, look in the car parts section of course. Last time I had to buy one was exactly that reason, just had a new tyre fitted and went to check the pressure and 50psi plus blew the old one apart.
