What is the normal range for tire pressure in summer?
1 Answers
The normal range for tire pressure in summer is between 2.2-2.4 bar. As temperatures and road surface temperatures rise, tire pressure can easily increase during high-speed or long-distance driving. Excessive tire pressure may lead to brake failure and can cause tire blowouts when encountering road protrusions or depressions. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and deviation, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates uneven wear of the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overextends tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing vehicle load during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, causing internal cracks and blowouts.
