What is the normal tire pressure for BMW?
1 Answers
The normal tire pressure for BMW tires is generally between 2.2-2.5 bar. Tire pressure refers to the air pressure inside the tire. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the performance and power of the vehicle. Based on the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, in summer, the pressure can be adjusted 0.1-0.2 bar lower than the normal value, while in winter, it can be adjusted 0.1-0.2 bar higher than the normal value. More information about tire pressure is as follows: 1. Common faults: These can be divided into four types of alarms: high/low pressure alarm, air leakage alarm, high-temperature alarm, and tire pressure sensor low battery alarm. If any of these four alarms appear, please stop and check the tire pressure. 2. Low tire pressure: The braking distance will be shorter, and the grip during turns will be better. However, low pressure will make the vehicle consume more fuel. During driving, low tire pressure causes the fragile sidewalls of the tire to continuously compress and rebound, which can lead to tire fatigue, accelerated temperature rise, and potentially cause a blowout at a certain temperature. 3. High tire pressure: It is more fuel-efficient, and steering will feel lighter. However, the braking distance will be longer. This is because high tire pressure reduces the tire's contact area with the ground, leading to poorer adhesion. Additionally, the fragile sidewalls are more prone to bulging.
