What are the effects of insufficient tire pressure?
1 Answers
The effects of insufficient tire pressure include: 1. Increased friction coefficient with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; 2. Heavier steering wheel and tendency to veer, compromising driving safety; 3. Increased movement of various parts of the tire, causing abnormal heat due to excessive rolling; 4. Reduced functionality of the cord and rubber; 5. Multiplied friction between the tire and the ground, sharply rising tire temperature, softening of the tire, and a drastic drop in strength leading to blowouts; 6. Increased deformation of the tire body, prone to cracking on the sidewalls, accelerating rubber aging and shoulder wear. The functions of car tires are: 1. Preventing severe vibrations and early damage to car components, adapting to the vehicle's high-speed performance and reducing driving noise; 2. Supporting the entire weight of the vehicle, bearing the load of the car, and transmitting forces and moments in other directions.
