Can You Drive with 180 kPa Tire Pressure?

[KarterFitz]

Tire pressure of 180 kPa is unsafe for driving, and you should inflate the tires as soon as possible. The recommended tire pressure for car tires is between 2 to 2.5 bar. Hazards of low tire pressure: 1. Increases the contact area between the tire and the ground, raising the temperature inside the tire during driving; 2. Severe deformation of the tire sidewall accelerates the aging of internal steel wires and fabric layers, leading to tire blowouts; 3. Increases fuel consumption and reduces tire lifespan. Factors affecting vehicle tire pressure: 1. Seasonal factors—thermal expansion and contraction in summer and winter result in different tire pressures; 2. Load conditions—tire pressure varies when the vehicle is empty, half-loaded, or fully loaded; 3. Tire condition—worn-out and new tires have different tire pressures.
