What is the appropriate tire pressure on highways?
1 Answers
On highways, a tire pressure of 2.3 to 2.5 bar is appropriate. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. The effects of excessively high tire pressure are: 1. It increases the friction between the tire and the ground, reducing tire adhesion; 2. It affects the braking performance and driving comfort of the vehicle, accelerating the wear of the central tread and reducing the tire's service life; 3. It increases body vibration, accelerates tire aging, reduces wear resistance, and increases the risk of tire blowouts. The effects of excessively low tire pressure are: 1. It increases the friction coefficient with the road surface; 2. It causes the steering wheel to feel heavy and prone to drifting; 3. It increases the movement of various parts of the tire, leading to excessive rolling and abnormal heat generation in the tire.
