Is a tire pressure of 1.5 caused by a puncture?
1 Answers
A tire pressure reading of 1.5 may be caused by a puncture. Here are the details about tire pressure: 1. Pay attention to using appropriate tire pressure: Both underinflation and overinflation can affect the tire's lifespan and fuel consumption. Overinflation concentrates the vehicle's weight on the center of the tread, leading to rapid wear in that area. Underinflation can cause uneven tire contact with the road, increasing wear, rolling resistance, and fuel consumption. 2. Ensure consistent tire pressure on both sides: When one tire has low pressure, the vehicle may pull to that side during driving or braking. Also, note that both tires on the same axle should have identical tread patterns and specifications. Tires from different manufacturers or with different tread patterns should not be used on the front wheels simultaneously, as this can also cause the vehicle to pull to one side.
