I'm lookin for a tire inflator for when im offroading. So that I can air down my tires for more traction. I want to easily be able to fill them up with air with out spending tons of money on a portable compressor. I have a few questions. Whats better Co2 or Compressed air? Also I have a ton of paintball tanks; like 2 20oz co2's, a 72ci 3500psi compressed air tank and another (i think)64ci 4500psi compressed air tank. Would any of those hold enough "Air" to fill up 4 tires if I was like at 15 psi on all 4? And I saw this Compressed air tank at target called a DURABUILT 300psi Rechargeable Cordless Inflator, I think it was like 45$ or sumthing like that. Does anyone know anything about em? Or can I get something better for 45$
Thx..... Again....

CO2 tank is cheaper, lighter and safer than all those compressed air tanks.
Do some searching before you get a CO2 tank. You'll need to find a place locally that'll refill the tank for you, for cheap...should be around a dollar a pound. Check with breweries, beverage supply shops, welding supply outfits, firefighter supply stores, find out where they get their CO2. CO2 is CO2, so any supplier is fine.
You'll probably want a 15# tank. Should be able to find an aluminum beverage tank for cheap, I got a 20# tank for about 115$. Fixed 150# regulator will cost you about 50$.
You can also just order everything from a place like Ultimate Air, just make sure you've found a place locally that'll fill your tank and return it to you, no swapping. If all you find is swap deals, buy one of their thrashed tanks and call it a day, as long as the swap price is around a dollar a pound and tanks run around 100$ +/- maybe 15-30$ depending on tank size.
Don't bother with compressed air tanks. If you want to use air, save a few hundred bucks and get a good onboard compressor, like the Viair, ARB, or Extremeaire.
For the price this can't be beat. I love mine and it has not given me any problems except for the built in pressure gauge not working since day one. Not a big deal and the price is great. Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices
Sweet. I think ill probly buy end up buying one those. Im gonna look around town and see if I can find something like like that, and if not ill just buy one of those online.
