At What Tire Pressure Will a Tire Burst?

[AlainaAnn]

The tire pressure for passenger car tires generally ranges between 2.3~2.8 BAR, and as long as it stays within this range, it is considered safe. However, during summer when temperatures are high, the tire pressure, which was initially within the normal range, may actually rise above 3.0 BAR after driving. Therefore, in summer, it is advisable to maintain a slightly lower tire pressure within the normal range, with 2.3~2.5 BAR being more appropriate. The hazards of excessively high or low tire pressure are as follows: 1. Excessive tire pressure: Reduces the contact area between the tire and the ground, significantly increasing the pressure and wear per unit area. This can easily lead to loss of braking control, tire bursts when encountering road protrusions or depressions, damage to the vehicle's suspension system, and an uncomfortable ride. 2. Insufficient tire pressure: Increases the contact area between the tire and the ground, causing abnormal rises in tire temperature during driving. Additionally, severe deformation of the tire sidewall accelerates the aging of internal steel wires and fabric layers, thereby creating a hidden risk for tire bursts. It also increases fuel consumption and reduces tire lifespan.
