What are the effects of insufficient tire pressure?
1 Answers
The effects of insufficient tire pressure: 1. The friction coefficient with the road surface increases, leading to higher fuel consumption; 2. It causes the steering wheel to become heavy and prone to deviation, among other factors detrimental to driving safety; 3. It increases the movement of various parts of the tire, resulting in abnormal heating due to excessive rolling; 4. It reduces the functionality of the cords and rubber, leading to delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim causing damage to the bead area and abnormal wear; 5. The friction between the tire and the ground multiplies, causing a sharp rise in tire temperature; 6. The tire becomes soft, and its strength drastically decreases; 7. High-speed driving may lead to a tire blowout.
