Are these for only adding air or can you actually check the tire pressure with them on?

use to check tire pressure on my outside duals on motorhome. original valves point in on inside of rim.90 degree works but they also have a 135 degree which might work better for me

I can do both with them.....need to check pressure before I decide to add air or not. They make it much easier to check and fill on my motorcycles.

Yep.....you can check the air pressure.....I use one for my air shocks on my motorcycle. It stays on all the time.

You can check the air in addition to adding air to tires. I use them on my motorcycle they work great.

Does not inflate the tire with air, but it is easy to use and easy to read, if you need to check the air pressure in the tire.

Yes, it's a little difficult to put air in the tires, especially if you have an air compressor unit. If you do it with one of these be very careful not to over fill tires, short burst is how I did it. It is also on the "fingers/rim in the way" when trying to attach to stem. If you have an electric plug in pump would be better because you can turn on/off when correct pressure is attained. Hope this helps. Unit fits in front space of 5th wheel for travel purposes.

I have the same issue. I can put air into my bicycle's tire. However, much air escapes when I unscrew the connector. My manual also says the adapters included are not for tires. It is really bad that the picture here shows that it is for auto tires, but they do not include adapters for auto or bicycles.

When you hook the air supply line to the valve stem it will show the pressure in the tire. It increases in pressure as the tire inflates. I turn off when I reach the desired pressure. If I were just checking my tire pressure I would probably use a hand tire gauge. But it will give you a reading.

That is exactly my application. I installed all 5 of them during my last new tire purchase. They seem to work OK, although not as precise as the OEM units. The OEM units always agreed and were closer to my actual gauge measurement.

Neither. They are thick rubber and hold their shape. When stepped on they squeeze down. Underneath is an air intake hole. As they regain their shape they fill with air from the intake.

When adding air pressure to the air springs, remember that they have a much smaller volume of air that a tire so they will inflatemuch quicker. Add air pressure in short bursts until the vehicle is level. (NEVER EXCEED 100psi IN EACH AIR SPRING.).that is from the manufacturer, I believe my gauge goes to 110psi, I'd never get to that pressure anyway, hope that helpsNote the manufacturer recommends to keep a minimum of 10 psi in the air bag at all time.

That is a pressure release... when you have the gauge on the tire reading the pressure and want to release some air to lower the pressure..

no, these tires do not have any air in them. i believe they are solid rubber but i would check the website for exact specs. they roll great.

nothing you have to carry a pressure tester for the air pressure in the tire no big deal

yes with gauge, should not be used to inflate completely flat tire. will overheat

No, it does not, so it's important to keep an eye on it until whatever you are airing up has reached the pressure you want. Since it's pretty fast for the average vehicle tire, you shouldn't have to wait long.

They are made for a smaller radius tire and as such if installed on a larger radius tire with a substantially greater circumference you will have only minimal spray and tire coverage. I don't see the point unless you only are concerned with asthetics!

There is a sticker, perhaps on the driver door, perhaps on the passenger side B-pillar (just behind the front passenger door), that gives the correct pressure. It is also in the owner's manual. If you buy new tires and they are about the same size the pressure will be the same.

The TireMinder displays continuous realtime tire pressures. You'll have to contact the manufacturer to determine the precise accuracy of the readings...I would assume that they're not calibrated to the kind of exacting standards you'd likely need.

I typically filled mine to 90-100 psi, and one of them developed a bulge and I'm having to buy a replacement. Two other reviewers have noted similar findings (search on "bulge" in reviews). So I'd keep the pressure on the lower end of recommended for these, or even a bit under. I'll probably be filling them to 70-80 psi from here on. That will lead to a bit more pinch-flat risk, but hopefully will reduce the risk of tire failure.
