My new auto has these wide low aspect ratio tires needing refills often.I need an easy quick at home solution, Will this do it for me?

It would work but I wouldn't recommend it. This is more like a one tire emergency filler. It takes a long time to fill tires with this. I would recommend a real air compressor with a tank for your needs.

I was able to use it on 4 tiers for my Honda and Toyota. Also I have GMS Envoy XL, one tires was flat because of a big screw inside it. I was not able to take the car for repair. I used my Black & Decker ASI500 and within 2-3 minutes the tire was back to normal and I took the care to the nearby tire shop to fix the tire. I am so happy with it.

For multiple tire refills, I would recommend a plug in air compressor with a larger motor and tank. This will fill a tire or two, but may run out of charge. Then you have to plug it in, charge it, and continue. This unit does not run while it is charging--it will damage it.

I don't think you will like the result - the key to this thing is a narrow rim and a tire that you can barely squeeze over the tube. I suspect you will have lots of "play" in the tire and it will be unusable.

IF it all goes it & the tire isn't over 2" x 26" then it should do better than 45 psi.This is a really bad product you should get the "Air Chuck" from the same company or the similar product from Crank Bros. The brass fitting that secures the cartridge tends to break out of the plastic housing within just a few uses. It leaks terribly.

no.....this is more of a slow steady air source which works great for tires. For what you want I'd look at something like this... The Source S-KIT10 High Performace Portable Air System

This should not be used for automotive tires. It's designed for motorcycle, bicycle tires and is designed small because motorcycles dont have much room. Your car should not be so crowded that you need a pump this small. For another 20$ at sams club you can get a self contained battery jump box, pump, light system that is simply impractical for motorcycles.

Yes! I use vector and you can get refill cans at home improvement stores like lowes.

It should work IF you are not using a great volume of air. I use this with a nail gun (brad and finish nailer and staples) as well as adding air to auto tires (which does use quite a volume of air).

No, unfortunately that won't help your tires; it's only good for paper projects really. I am sorry.

Michael.This compressor was not designed for this job. The volume it produces is far too small to do a tire in a reasonable amount of time. ARB offers a tire inflation kit (part #171302) that can be fitted to any of the larger compressors such as the CKMA12. However, even that model is slow. Expect a 30 minute fill time for a tire. if you have any questions please let us know

I would say no,I believe you need one bottle for each automobile tire to do it correctly.

Personally I did not think much of this item and I eventually returned it. I was only using for maintaining the air pressure for my car and bikes. The compressor would run out of air much faster than blow up a single tire, so this did not work for me. Possibly if you have a different use in mind it will work for you.

Only if you want to do all 4 tires at once, then yes if so. Try Rugged Ridge tire deflators, search on Amazon.com, makes life a lot simpler.

This is for small jobs only, and for emergencies on the road. You can inflate auto tires, but best for simply adding a few pounds to an auto tire. But, in an emergency you can add say 20 lbs to an auto tire, if needed. I use it mainly for my lawn tractor, but sometimes add a few pounds to one of our cars. It does not have enough power to fill a tubeless tire from zero pressure if the rim seal is broken. You need a more powerful compressor to reseal the rim and fill the tire. This is true for most any tubeless tire that has no pressure, not just vehicles. Hope this helps.

Most defintely. I have already filled my car tires twice to 35 lb. It' a nice gadget to have at home.

Yes. There are videos on outline on how to make it full auto though. It'll wear down the parts much faster though.

Ellen, yes it is a standard "doughnut" style mini tire like use to be included with cars until a couple of years ago. When arrives the tire will be already mounted to the rim. You should ensure the tire is inflated to 50 psi before stowing it into the trunk per the instructions that come with the kit. That is easily done with the compressor that the car is equipped with now. Once you install the spare kit, you will find there is room to store the compressor there too. The only other thing you might wish to add is one of those cross shaped tire lug removers. The one that comes with the jack is fine, but the other style makes it easier to remove stubborn lugs. Hope this answers your question. Patrick Ellen, yes it is a standard "doughnut" style mini tire like use to be included with cars until a couple of years ago.

Great unit worth the money. I have 20 inch tires for beach. Re inflates in no time. Others have made comments regarding how fast the refill is. Try calling the manufacturer for a clearer technical answer.
