What is the normal tire pressure in kPa for winter?
1 Answers
The normal tire pressure in winter is around 260 kPa or 250 kPa, which is approximately 2.6 bar or 2.5 bar. Low tire pressure can reduce the lifespan of the tires. Tires are the only components of a car that come into contact with the ground, and they are crucial for the vehicle's driving stability and safety. Methods for monitoring tire pressure: 1. Digital sensor tire pressure monitoring: This uses a wireless transmitter to send pressure information from inside the tire to the main unit, displaying the real-time pressure of each tire. 2. Basic sensor tire pressure monitoring: This is a simplified version of digital sensor monitoring, using the same four tire pressure sensors, but the central panel can only display whether the tire pressure is normal or insufficient. 3. Indirect tire pressure monitoring: This actually monitors the number of rotations of the left and right wheels. If the left tire is punctured, the left wheel will rotate fewer times than the right wheel, triggering an alarm. However, the alarm depends on the speed of the tire deflation and typically requires driving over 5 kilometers before it alerts.
