Compressor
Best portable air compressor. Tire pressure 95psi. Preferably 120 but can do 12v probably with an extension.

We like this one available from Lowe's:
Fini 1.2-Gallon Portable Electric Hot Dog Air Compressor.
I don't know if it is the "best" but it goes to 135psi and does just fine topping off the 315's i have on the front of my coach. It is also small compared to some others.

'Best' implies that somebody has tried them all, and not only knows the answer, but knows what's best for YOU. I doubt either of those things is true for anyone. 
I bought a Porter Cable 6 gallon from Lowes, fairly inexpensive and has a max 150lbs output which was plenty for my needs. I've also used it to power an impact driver to loosen bolts while doing the CHF.

I know quite a few people that have the Viair compressor. They all seem happy with it's performance and durability.

Back when I had a DP I bought one of these at Wal-Mart hoping it would last for one summer trip out west.

That was 11 years ago and I still use it in the motorhome today. Pumps 120 PSI just fine as long as you're in no hurry.

I also have a Viair and it worked well for topping off tire pressure until the first time I had to fill a completely flat tire.
I now carry a DeWalt pancake compressor that is rated to 165psi. The deWalt was $100 less than the Viair!

I bought a 110v Porter-Cable 150PSI CMB15 compressor and it works quite well. I have topped off 110psi tires in just a few minutes and it builds pressure very fast.

We have the Viair 400P which connects to 12v off one of the chassis batteries.
https://www.amazon.com/40047-400P-RV...rds=viair+400p
Not sure if the Porter Cable or Dewalt units mentioned above run off your 12V supply but I would guess that they fill faster than the Viair.

This is going to sound crazy but I bought the most powerful Slime compressor and it gets my tires to 95. Wouldn’t like to try much more than that though

I take it you have a gasser? If DP, just use your on board air supply.

Many on here including me have this compressor. Not expensive and it works great.
Compressor comes back on at 125psi, so it never gets too low to fill a large truck tire.
