That would probably be OK for running an impact gun off of for changing
tires and such. Personally, I like one with wheels so that it is easier to
take to the job. I bought mine initially for trimming out a living room
with a finish nailer, but have since also put up a fence with a framing
nailer which required dragging it all over my yard. It is a 5 HP / 22
Gallon oil less Campbell Hausfield. It is a vertical tank model with 8"
wheels. I got the vertical tank so it wouldn't eat up as much floor space
in my workshop. It is light enough that I can throw it in the van and take
it to races with me too. I bought it for ~$260 at Home Depot., It included
a bunch of cheap air tools for that price. 3/8 Air ratchet, air hammer, a
spray gun, and a bunch of fittings and hose. You can kinda-sorta see it in
this picture, though it is mostly hidden behind the trash can:
