Anyone out there have any compressors that they really like??? I have a CH that says Max press is 125psi. I'm lucky to get 90 out of it..Got any recommendations I'd appreciate them.

I purchased a rebuilt porter/cable pancake compressor on Ebay last year as the 17.5 inch tires require 125 psi. Mine goes up to 150 psi and does a good job. It came right from porter cable factory as a rebuilt unit.

I got one from Sears about a year ago. I don't know if they still have them. It was a compact 150# unit that works pretty well. It's 120V though. If you're looking for 12V, I tried several and never had any luck.
I also use a Sears pancake with 4 gal storage and it will do the 125 PSI you need.

Campbell Hausfeld model # cc2300 rechargeable 12v will top off the 17.5" 125 psi tires. Wouldn't try taking them from 0-125, but for topping them off if you need 5 or 6 pounds or so it will do it.
Home Depot approx. $43, Tractor Supply about $47.

I also have a Porter Cable and it works great. Max pressure 150, so works well on MS tires. Easly stored Pancake tank.

Agree on the Porter Cable 150 PSI. Already had a compressor that could not do the job, for the 17.5/125psi tires. I know they are available at Lowe's, for that is where I got mine. It will fit in our storage bay front right, or fits fit nicely in the sliding tray.

I use the Sears 1.5 HP 3 gallon model also that is rated at 125 psi. I adjusted the pressure switch to shut off just when my tires reach 125 psi. I really like it and priced around $100. Most pressure switches are adjustable.
