How much does it take to inflate a 32" tire

[adarkang]

I am considering buying a 7 gallon air tank from walmart for $20. It does not have a motor it is just a storage tank rated at 125 psi max pressure. I was wondering if anyone knows if this will be able to fill 4 32" tires from 15 psi to 35psi?

You'll need more than 7 gallons to fill a tire up to 30-35 PSI. Your better off getting a CO2 tank setup instead.

I think I am just gonna buy the TruckAir compressor from walmart and see what it can handle. I am going to the sand dunes this weekend and I wanted a quick easy cheap solution, chances are they are gonna have free air on site. Thanks for the input.

those little electric compressors work fine, as long as you have all day.

Dont run it more than 5-8 minutes at a time, it will melt.

From what I am reading, the truckair is a decent electric compressor. People are saying it holds up way better then your general cheapo's.

TruckAir is good, I have one. It has a one hour duty cycle, plenty of time to fill four tires.

An 80 cu ft SCUBA tank at 3000 psig will do the trick. We carry one in my son's Jeep.

Im bored so i decided to figure that one out. its 6,850 Liters of air at 35 psi. should manage to fill a couple tires

I thought you meant one of those el cheapo's, like the one I got free in an emergency road side kit thingy. It works, but it will melt if I try to air up 4 35's! hahaha
