olley Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 Hi Truck air is supposed to be good http://www.discoparts.com/asp/d-no.asp?ProductID=63&Process=1&CatID=18&SubCatID=0 Olley
malc d Posted May 19, 2008 Posted May 19, 2008 A couple of years ago I got a 300 PSI compressor " for Trucks and SUVs" from International Tool Co ( based I believe, in Northampton), and I've been quite happy with it. See: www.international-tool.co.uk It was recommended at that time in one of the motorhome mags.
Wildge Posted May 19, 2008 Author Posted May 19, 2008 Thanks for your help............ will give those a onceover :-D
Herri Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 Hi, I have also been looking, as my tyres need 65psi. The one Olly suggested is (according to the web site) only good for 35psi. I have heard of a Michelin one, which a guy in MMM recommened. He says that although Michelin wont confrim it, its ok for 65psi. If anyone has any ideas/experience I would also be interested.

The way I read the web site that Olly suggested was: Specification:- Max. pressure 17bar (275psi) Seemed ideal to me; I must start saving up, I could do with one!

Vernon B Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Wildge - 2008-05-19 4:45 PM Hi all.......Can anyone recommend a good lightweight tyre inflator suitable for the high pressures required in motorhomes? Thanks...... Wildge :'( Might also be worth looking at Argos! They have a range of air compressors on offer from £9.99! I've just bought the RAC badged one for £24.99 that is rated at 100PSI and had no difficulty in inflating my 215/75 16R tyres from 60 psi to the required 75. Don't know how you can get so much bang for your buck out of these little light weight compressors - some forecourt compressors won't pump my tyres up to 75 psi. V.
Guest JudgeMental Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Halfords do a "michlin" model was £40 when i got it originally - then went down to £20. It works well enough , I even used it with my large 4x4 tyres and it worked fine.
Wildge Posted May 23, 2008 Author Posted May 23, 2008 Thanks for that Judge and the info yesterday re Aires! Just letting you know we have just had our tracvision fitted from Phly.............. worked a treat in their car park ??.........will inform you all of events on our return from France .....................Wildge (via Jude)
