I asked about regulated PSI of their air thru out their air plumbing. So that they know exactly what psi they are filling to using a tire gauge that they know is accurate. Their answer was "nobody said there was a problem yet".
I resort to using my own compressor. All three of my air gauges are within 2 pounds of each other. After tire work I have resorted to completing the job the next day when tires haven't been used for at least 12 hours.
