Is a tire pressure of 250 normal?
1 Answers
A tire pressure of 250 KPA means inflating to 2.5 bars. The normal range for tire pressure is between 230 KPA and 250 KPA. Driving with low tire pressure can cause severe tire wear, and in extreme cases, may lead to tire blowouts. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced friction and adhesion of the tire, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and misalignment, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases body vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overstretches the tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, the tire is more prone to punctures, leading to internal cracks, bursts, and blowouts. Solutions for underinflated tires: If no visible damage is found, simply inflate to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system; If a puncture is detected, drive to a tire shop for repair and then reinflate; If the tire pressure warning reappears after inflation without any punctures, it may be due to a leaking rim caused by deformation. It is recommended to inspect and replace the rim if necessary.
