What is the smallest compressor ( tank storage and PSI) that can be used with air tools in my gaurage. Usually I see pretty good size tanks on wheels; I would like to keep the size down to the tight space I have to work with.

REALLY depends on the tools. Something like an impact wrench isn't as needy since it's just short bursts, whereas a DA Sander is an air hungry wh*re. For tires, maybe an air ratchet, blow gun? No need to go to 220, stick with a little upright 110vt jobby with, hm, 20-30'ish gallons? Just based on the space issue.

Otherwise, 220, dual stage, 100+ gallon upright with at least 5hp.... 9jillion cfm at 23jillion psi... that's what I'D buy...
