Best tire gauge?

I use this Campbell Hausfeld MP6000 hooked to our compressor.

I forgot to say- it was purchased for I believe just under $20 at either Northern Tool or Wal-Mart, I don't recall off the top of my head.

For car tires is it best to get 60 or 100 psi range gauge?

My tires hold about 35-39.

A gauge is most accurate in it's middle range. So you're kind of in between, but if it was me, I'd go with the 60 psi. I've got an Accu-tire for my truck, but on my kart, where .5 psi makes a difference, I have a Longacre Deluxe.

Thanks.. I almost purchase a 100 psi this morning. I'll go back and get the 60.
 
Solotime performance has some really great tire gauges that have pressure relief valves, which are quite handy when you're at an autocross or track.

or just Google Solotime.
 
I love my Snap On (Blue Point) digital gauge. Takes 6 or 7 readings and then indicates the highest reading taken out of all of them. Also has a tenth indication so I can get it as exact as possible such as 30.0. Works for me. I bought it after I heard several Lexus techs saying how sensitive the Lexus tire pressure monitors are and this tool is the only way they can get it exact so the warning lights don't keep freaking out customers thinking a tire is having problems.
