Why Tire Pressure
is important?
1. Safety: Tires with Improper pressure can
cause handling and traction problems, which are dangerous especially during
winters. In addition, overinflated or underinflated tires are vulnerable to
unpredicted flats, which can cause you to lose control of your car or leave
stranded on the side of the road.
2. Saves Money: An underinflated or overinflated tire can
accelerate the tread wear of your tires. With an overinflated tire, less the
tread is touching the road wearing parts of your tire tread more quickly. An underinflated tire does the opposite: more
of the tire is wearing down faster.
3.
Smooth ride: Tires with too much pressure guarantee a bumpy ride.
Underinflated tires give you a much more comfortable ride but can cause
handling problems.

Pressure Gauge:
Tire gauges are pretty cheap, depending on the type you buy.
2. Remove the cap
from the tire stem:
The tire stem is a small rubber piece
sticking up from your tire).
3. Insert the tire
pressure gauge into the stem: You will feel the gauge fits there correctly.

using it in the right direction or not)

tire pressure) is in your car’s owner manual or on the decal on the bottom of
your door frame on the driver’s side.
