Is a car tire temperature of 55 degrees normal?
1 Answers
A tire temperature of 55 degrees is relatively dangerous and requires attention. When the ambient temperature exceeds 30 degrees, the air pressure inside the tire can increase by 10% to 12%, making the tire more prone to bulging. Hazards of high tire temperature: When tire temperature is high, internal pressure increases, which can affect the vehicle's braking efficiency, the adhesion coefficient between the tire and the road surface, and the tire's rolling resistance. In severe cases, it may even lead to a tire blowout. Daily maintenance methods for car tires: Check the air pressure of all tires, including the spare tire, at least once a month when they are cold; do not exceed the reasonable speed limits required by driving conditions and legal regulations; regular wheel alignment and balancing are essential for ensuring driving safety and achieving optimal mileage; protect tires from sunlight, oil, acid, and hydrocarbon erosion. Daily tire usage precautions: Regularly check tire pressure. The standard tire pressure is approximately 2.2~2.6 bar. Excessive pressure can increase tire wear and may cause a blowout, while insufficient pressure can increase fuel consumption and make the ride bumpier. Generally, it is advisable to keep the pressure slightly lower, and slightly higher in winter.
