What is the appropriate tire pressure for the Baojun RM5?
1 Answers
The recommended tire pressure for the Baojun RM5 is between 2.4-2.5 bar. The exact value can be found on the fuel tank cap, the side of the driver's door, or in the user manual. However, tire pressure may vary depending on specific conditions. During summer or winter, due to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, tire pressure increases in high temperatures and decreases in low temperatures. Therefore, summer tire pressure should be lower than winter tire pressure. Generally, it is advised to set summer tire pressure at the lower limit of the standard range, while winter tire pressure should be slightly increased by about 0.2 bar above the standard pressure. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and misalignment, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overstretches tire cords, reducing elasticity and increasing load during driving; Decreases puncture resistance, making tires more susceptible to damage from sharp objects like nails or glass, leading to internal cracks or blowouts. Hazards of underinflated tires: Increases friction with the road surface, leading to higher fuel consumption; Causes heavy steering and misalignment, compromising driving safety; Increases movement of tire components, leading to abnormal heat buildup; Weakens cords and rubber, causing delamination or cord breakage, and excessive friction with the rim, damaging the tire bead and causing abnormal wear; Multiplies friction with the ground, rapidly increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing strength, which can lead to blowouts at high speeds; Increases tire deformation, leading to sidewall cracks, excessive heat, rubber aging, cord fatigue, and accelerated shoulder wear.
