What is the appropriate tire pressure for highway driving?

[LaSilas]

When driving on highways, the tire pressure should be inflated to around 250 or 260 Kpa. Generally, a car's tire pressure should be maintained between 220 to 260 Kpa. If the tire pressure is too low, it can easily cause excessive compression and deformation of the tire cord layer during high-speed driving. As the speed increases, it may even lead to the phenomenon of standing waves in the tire, and in severe cases, it can cause a tire blowout. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that the tire pressure is adequately sufficient when driving on highways. Strictly speaking, tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In car maintenance, the engine plays the role of the car's heart, and engine damage can lead to the end of the car's life; tire pressure symbolizes the car's blood pressure, and the level of tire pressure has a significant impact on the car's performance and power. Air pressure is the lifeblood of the tire, and both excessive and insufficient pressure will reduce the tire's lifespan.
