I think I already know the answer to this but wondering what everyone else thinks. Considering how much water accumulates in the compressor receiver, if you were to hook a compressor straight up to the tires all that water will accumulate in the tires instead. Not so much of a disaster in summer but in winter it could freeze, then you have unbalanced tires.
I don't have air lockers so the only need I'll have for a compressor is for airing up the tires and possibly for an air wand to blow things down for cleaning. I'd rather avoid giving up the space for installing a receiver, and for inflating the tires you can hook the compressor up directly but that means the water won't have a receiver to accumulate in before the tire so I guess I'll need to put in an inline air dryer. Or possibly just a little receiver with a stop cock on the bottom to separate out the water.
