[TR] best 12V price/quality tire inflators or other tire inflators for use off-site

[Rye Livingston]

I just happen to return from a 5 day off road overland trip in my 1983 Toyota Land Cruiser.  I air down my tires to 12 lbs for off road driving.  To make deflating and inflating tires more efficient, and balanced, I use Morrflate.  It’s really nice doing all four tires at one time.  https://morrflate.com/shop/morrflate-multi-tire-air-kits/morrflate-quad-4-tire-air-kit/

To air up, I use a Smittybilt 5.65 CFM Air Compressor - 2781
https://morrflate.com/shop/morrflate-multi-tire-air-kits/morrflate-quad-4-tire-air-kit/

Viair is a top brand used by a lot of members in the 4 wheel drive club.  One of the most knowledgeable members told me the Smittybuilt is a good model, bang for the buck for about $75 less.  So far I’ve been very pleased with it.

Regards,

Rye

I wouldn’t use it on a farm tractor tire unless you have lots of time tho. Otherwise, it does a great job for the applications for which it is intended. And at $20 the price is impossible to beat. And it comes with a ball inflator needle.
