Can I still drive with a tire pressure of 150?
1 Answers
Tire pressure of 150 should not be driven on. When the tire pressure is low, the contact area with the ground increases, and the rolling heat generated is much higher than at standard pressure. This can cause deformation and accelerated fatigue of the internal cord layers, leading to structural damage in severe cases, ultimately resulting in a tire blowout. Below are factors to consider when adjusting tire pressure: 1. Seasonal factors: In winter, it is advisable to slightly increase the tire pressure by about 0.2 bar based on the standard tire pressure. In summer, follow the lower limit of the standard tire pressure. If the car is parked outdoors in summer, the pressure can generally be about 0.1 bar lower than the standard to avoid blowouts due to high temperatures. 2. Road conditions: On roads with significant bumps, it is appropriate to lower the tire pressure by 0.1-0.2 bar from the standard. For smoother roads, this can be ignored. For long-distance highway driving, the tire pressure should not be too low; it is advisable to slightly increase the pressure by about 0.2 bar from the standard lower limit.
