HoLY Crap i just realized something. its a stick type guage, ambiant pressure pushes back on the stick, right?

So if a flat tire reads zero (stick doesn't move), then a reading of 44psi is really 44psi above abmiet pressue??? Would a $3 gauge compensate in any way???

If not, then i've had my tires at 58.7psi! That's hyperinflation baby!
