J.T. Brooks Tire Deflators Pro Review

Mastering the Art of Airing Down


As an avid off-roader, tire deflators were one of the first and most crucial accessories I invested in. My journey with  J.T. Brooks Automatic Tire Deflators has been nothing short of transformative for my off-road adventures.

When I started off-roading, I opted for the original set of J.T. Brooks deflators. While effective, they required pre-setting at home to calibrate. This procedure doesn't make it easy to switch your air pressure on the trail. However, the game changed when J.T. Brooks introduced their Pro series.

Pro Series: A Game-Changer

The Pro series deflators are a significant upgrade, offering:
  • Adjustable PSI range from 3-32
  • Laser-engraved PSI scale for precision
  • Nickel-plated brass construction for durability

My Personal Experience

These deflators have become an indispensable part of my off-road gear. I use them religiously on every trip and often lend them to fellow off-roaders on the trail.

Ease of Use

Setting the Pro series is remarkably straightforward:
  • Loosen the lock ring to reveal the PSI scale
  • Adjust the body to align your desired PSI
  • Tighten the lock ring carefully

Pro Tip: When using the J.T. Brooks Tire Deflators always test your settings before hitting the trails. Practice to make sure you are dialing them to the right PSI line. I learned this the hard way when I initially set mine incorrectly to zero PSI!

Why Invest in Quality Deflators?

While the Pro series comes at a premium (about $30 more than the original), the investment is well worth it. The precision and ease of use save valuable time and ensure consistent tire pressure for optimal off-road performance.

Key Benefits:
  • Quick and effortless airing down of all four tires simultaneously
  • Automatic shut-off at preset PSI
  • Corrosion and rust-resistant materials

The J.T. Brooks Pro Series Automatic Tire Deflators are a must-have accessory for any off-roader. They've significantly streamlined my pre-trail routine and enhanced my overall off-road experience. At around $99 for a set of four, they provide excellent value considering the performance and convenience they deliver.

Remember, proper tire pressure is crucial for off-road traction and vehicle handling. With these deflators, you'll be ready to tackle any terrain with confidence and ease.
