I use a proper bike track pump - modern ones from Topeak or Leznye etc can move an incredible amount of air - even on these gigantic SUV tyres if you're only adding a few PSI it takes a mere minute or so to get the required air in.

I always overinflate, then use my Topeak digital gauge with bleed function to get the exact pressure needed - pure habit from the cycle world.

OR.

You could forget the advice of these guys with their namby pamby kids sized air compressors and buy a Man Sized one that will blow more air than members here expel in a month.

Just in case you want a neat installation you can buy an Air Compressor already fitted in a Container.
