Accutire Racing Air Gauge



When tenths of a pound matter, depend on Accutire!

The Accutire Racing Gauge measures tire pressure in 0.1 lb increments! Fractions of a pound can make a difference in a race, so this tire gauge reads every small fluctuation in tire pressure. The Accutire Racing Gauge is accurate, dependable, and easy to use.

Racing has a history dating back over a hundred years. It seems that, for as long as automobiles have existed, people have wanted to see how fast they can go! Speed depends on a lot of factors, but most important of all is the condition of the tires. Proper tire pressure allows the engine to work at its optimum level and propel the car at its maximum speed. A fraction of a pound can make the difference between finishing first and just finishing. That’s why the Accutire Racing Gauge measures from 0-60 PSI in 0.1 lb increments.

This is the most accurate tire gauge you can buy! The dial reads like a speedometer in addition to posting the numerical reading in the center of the large, backlit LCD. Because the gauge reads in such small units, you’ll know if you’ve lost any pressure at all. The bleed valve allows you to release a little air at a time until you reach your desired pressure. The quick disconnect valve allows you to measure and go – a key feature on a race track. With a 10” rubber hose, you can easily reach deep-set tires and still get an accurate reading. The shiny, chrome finish makes this a stylish and functional tool.

Pound for pound, the Accutire Racing Gauge is one of the best tire gauges you can buy, particularly if your passion is racing. With a 5 year warranty, this gauge really goes the distance!

Specifications:
0-60 PSI ( in 0.1 lb units)
Most accurate gauge available
Reads extremely low racing pressures
Extra large, easy to read, blue backlit LCD
Bleed valve
Quick disconnect
Ideal for road, track, and ATVs

Wondering the same. Would make it that much easier to wrap. I'm sure it does.

NOPE

The face plate is part of the radio. The radio is actually two parts. The face plate with the display and buttons (which is why, when the AUX plug goes out, you have to replace the whole front), then the primary radio unit attaches to it.

It's kinda like how some radios have detachable face plates... only this one makes no sense.

That being said... I should look into wrapping my metra dash... the radio would blend much better. Hum.............
