At what tire pressure will a tire burst?
1 Answers
Tires may burst when the pressure exceeds 30% above the recommended value. However, high pressure is not the only cause of tire bursts; factors such as tire aging, puncture by sharp objects, excessive summer temperatures, and high road temperatures, as well as excessive vehicle load, can also lead to tire bursts. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire, and its level plays a crucial role in the performance and power of the vehicle. Tire pressure is an indicator of the vehicle's load capacity, and the load capacity depends on the tire pressure. According to the relationship between the tire's load index, pressure, and load capacity, higher tire pressure increases the load capacity, while lower pressure reduces it.
