    Hey guys, I'm a little in the dark with this so thought there may be some people in the know here!

    I'm thinking of getting a small ish compressor for use at home, mainly will be used for mounting / inflating tyres. What sort of spec compressor should I regard as up to the job?

    Wouldn't want to buy one only to discover it didn't have the grunt to help seat tyre beads etc, but similarly I'm very tight on storage space.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!

    Having looked at the various options, I'd go for the biggest your budget will allow. You don't need anything big for tyres, but you don't want to be in a position further down the line where you want to say, do some spraying and realize its too small. Personally, I would go at least a 3hp 50liter unit.
