What is the normal tire pressure range for SUV tires?

[Ezekiel]

The normal tire pressure for SUVs is between 2.2 and 2.5 bar. According to relevant national regulations: standard tires should be between 2.4 and 2.5 bar, reinforced tires between 2.8 and 2.9 bar, with the maximum pressure not exceeding 3.5 bar. The spare tire should have a higher pressure, generally above 2.5 bar. Tire pressure needs to be adjusted according to the season. Based on the principle of thermal expansion and contraction, in summer and autumn when temperatures are higher, the tire pressure should be slightly lower; while in winter and spring when temperatures are colder, the tire pressure should be higher. When the tire pressure is too high, it may accelerate the wear of the tread center pattern, reducing the tire's lifespan; cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, decreasing driving comfort; and reduce puncture resistance. When encountering sharp objects like nails or glass on the road, they can easily penetrate the tire, leading to internal cracks and blowouts, resulting in a tire burst. Therefore, tire pressure should be maintained within the normal range. Factors affecting tire pressure: Seasonal factors: In winter, adjust the tire pressure slightly higher by about 0.2 bar based on the standard tire pressure; in summer, use the lower limit of the standard tire pressure to avoid blowouts due to high temperatures. Load conditions: For empty or half-load conditions, use the lower limit of the standard tire pressure; for full-load conditions, use the upper limit of the standard tire pressure.

I've always driven SUVs, and I remember the tire pressure usually fluctuates between 32 and 35 PSI, but the most crucial thing is to check your own car's user manual or the label on the driver's side door. I always check the tire pressure during routine maintenance because low pressure increases tire wear and can easily lead to a blowout, while high pressure makes braking unstable and the ride bumpy. I recommend checking it monthly with a reliable tire pressure gauge; in winter when it's cold, the pressure drops a bit, so you need to add some air, but in summer when it's hot, don't overinflate. Safety first, don't take it lightly.

From a cost-saving perspective, I've noticed that maintaining tire pressure between 32-35 PSI can significantly improve fuel efficiency. For SUVs, insufficient tire pressure causes tire deformation which increases rolling resistance, forcing the engine to work harder and burn more fuel. In my experience, saving a few bucks by skipping proper inflation isn't worth it. I recommend using the free pressure gauges at gas stations to check, and always follow the standard values instead of guessing. Additionally, if you frequently drive long distances or carry heavy loads, slightly increasing the pressure is advisable. Regular checks can extend tire lifespan and save on maintenance costs.

Simply put, the normal tire pressure for SUVs is 32-35 PSI, but check the door label for specifics. I make it a habit to check regularly—don't wait for the warning light. Low pressure causes faster wear, while high pressure makes the ride bumpy.
