Who makes a good ACURATE tire gauges? I've gone through 5 different types/manufactures and none of them read the same.

Given the price of tires I'd say a good gauge is a cheap investment.

As someone who used to do calibration work, I say don't sweat it. If you are within 3-5 PSI that is plenty close enough. You can reasonably expect the pressures in your tires to vary more than that over the course of a day or even a drive.
