How to Determine if Car Tires Are Underinflated?
1 Answers
There are several methods to determine if a tire is underinflated: 1. Observe whether the tire is deformed or appears flat: If the tire looks flat and the shoulder of the tire contacts the ground without any curvature, it indicates the tire is underinflated. 2. While driving, notice if the steering tends to pull to one side: If it pulls severely to one side, it suggests a significant difference in tire pressure, and the tire should be inflated promptly. 3. During driving, pay attention to the feedback from the tires: Increased noise and reduced comfort indicate slightly higher tire pressure, while the opposite suggests slightly lower pressure, meaning it’s time to inflate the tire. 4. Use a professional tire pressure gauge to check, which is the most professional and direct method.
