Expert Answers about Tire Pressure Gauges


  • Does Firestone Automatic Single Gauge Compressor Kit Come with Single or Dual Inflation Valve
  • The picture that the Firestone Automatic, Single-Gauge Pneumatic Height-Control Valve w/ Compressor # F2186-2047 has on it's product page is a typical photo that is basically a generic representation of a compressor kit and not what you'd actually get if you ordered this. The kit comes with a single Tee valve that allows you to control the pressure of both bags equally with one inflation valve.

  • Battery Size for Slime Digital Tire Gauge # SLM20202
  • The Slime digital gauge, part # SLM20202, uses a CR2032 battery. We don't carry them and none are included with the gauge but you can find them pretty much anywhere batteries are sold. They're often used in garage door openers and key fobs. For another option look at the Tru-Flate gauge, part # 17-582. I personally use this tire gauge and it works great for me. It includes 2 replaceable AAA batteries as well.

  • Proper Tire Pressure for Trailer Tires
  • You should not run your tires at 50 psi if their max rating is 65 psi. Trailer tires such as the Karrier # AM31991 always need to be filled to the max psi for the best performance, while reducing the air pressure is going to lessen the load you are able to carry, making the tire's performance uneven and heightening the risk of a blowout.

  • Does The Loadstar ST205/75D14 Bias Trailer Tire w/ 14" White Wheel # AM3S440 Come Ready to Install?
  • The Loadstar ST205/75D14 Bias Trailer Tire with 14" White Wheel # AM3S440 will deliver mounted to your door. You will want to check the air pressure and set it before mounting on your trailer as the tire pressure can change over time due to temperatures and elevation changes. This wheel and tire comes mounted from the manufacturer as we do not mount any tires on wheels in our facility.

  • Does the Kenda 205/65-10 Tire and 10 Inch White Wheel Combo Come with High Pressure Valve Stems
  • The Kenda 205/65-10 Bias Trailer Tire with 10" White Wheel part # AM3H460 comes with valve stems that are suitable to handle the 90 psi rating of the tires though I am not sure if they are coined high pressure or not. If you want to swap them out for the Americana Metal Bolt-In Valve Stem part # AM20906 which are rated for over 200 psi then you can do so although this is not really needed.

  • What Type of Valve Stem Does The Kenda Tire and Wheel # AM31208 Have

The representative informed me that there is a regular valve stem on the Kenda Tire and Wheel # AM31208. She informed me that they have not had any customers have issues with the valve stems. The valve stem installed is sufficient to hold the air pressure of 65 PSI, which is the maximum PSI for the tire. With ST trailer tires, you want to make sure to have the tires inflated...

  • Does the Slime Rechargeable All-Purpose Inflator Include Battery
  • The Slime Rechargeable All-Purpose Inflator # SLM40028 referenced in your question does include a built-in rechargeable lead acid battery. You will not need to use your own battery to power the inflator. The inflator has a built-in gauge with Inflate Right Technology that allows you to set the desired pressure level so that the unit shuts off as soon as the desired level is reached. If you ever forget to charge the battery, the inflator can also be plugged into a 12V DC power outlet for...

  • Does The Tire And Wheel Come Mounted Or Separate On The # AM30780?
  • The Kenda 5.30-12 Bias Trailer Tire with 12" White Wheel - 4 on 4 - Load Range C, # AM30780, comes mounted on the rim and with air, balanced, and ready to install. I suggest double checking the air pressure to make sure it is at maximum psi as the weather can effect that even in shipping.

  • Are Sensors of TireMinder A1AS TPMS for RVs Lockable
  • There are no locks for the tire pressure sensors of the TireMinder A1AS TPMS for RVs and Trailers w/ Signal Booster # TM79FR that you referenced. Someone could steal them pretty easily but without the monitor they'd be basically useless so I wouldn't anticipate it being a high theft item.

  • Do the Tire and Wheel Combos Come Mounted and Balanced
  • The Tire and Wheel Combo, part # AM30000, is received from the supplier already with the tire mounted on the wheel. The supplier does not balance the combination, but when the tire is installed to the wheel they will line the high (heavy) spot on the tire with the low (light) spot on the wheel. This does not completely balance the tire and wheel combination but it does eliminate any excessive out of balance condition. It would be a good idea to have them balanced before you install them...

  • Do the Available Tire and Wheel Combos Come Pre-Mounted
  • You are correct. The Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 15 Inch Silver Mod Wheel # LHAW124 will arrive already mounted and inflated. Like you mentioned, you will just want to check the air pressure on the tire once you have it mounted to your trailer to ensure it is inflated to the recommended 80 psi. This tire and wheel combo has a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern, a maximum load of 2,830 pounds at 80 psi and a maximum speed of 75 mph.

  • Is the Trailer Valet Swivel Jack and Trailer Mover the New or Old Version
  • I went out to the warehouse with the writer who wrote the description for the Trailer Valet, # STC-V211, to determine if our stock is the old or new version.

The manufacturer states the following changes: The new Trailer Valets will still be powder coated, but all the parts that are exposed will be now be Zinc-Nickel Plated, a process known for its excellent resistance to corrosion. The quality of the Acme Screws on the device are greatly...
