What is the optimal tire pressure for the Tayron?

The normal tire pressure range for the Tayron is around 2.3-2.5 bar. According to the international standard GBT2978-2008, the recommended tire pressures for different types of tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5 bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9 bar; Maximum pressure: should not exceed 3.5 bar. Hazards of overinflated tires: Reduced tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; Causes steering wheel vibration and misalignment, reducing driving comfort; Accelerates wear on the central tread pattern, shortening tire lifespan; Increases vehicle vibration, indirectly affecting the lifespan of other components; Overstretches tire cords, reducing tire elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving; Decreases puncture resistance. Sharp objects like nails or glass can easily penetrate the tire, leading to internal cracks or blowouts. Hazards of underinflated tires: Increases friction with the road surface, raising fuel consumption; Causes heavy steering and misalignment, compromising driving safety; Increases movement of tire components, leading to abnormal heat generation due to excessive rolling; Weakens cord and rubber functionality, causing delamination, cord breakage, or excessive friction with the rim, damaging the bead area and causing abnormal wear; Multiplies friction with the ground, rapidly increasing tire temperature, softening the tire, and drastically reducing strength. High-speed driving may lead to blowouts; Increases tire deformation, causing sidewall cracks and flexing movements, leading to overheating, rubber aging, cord fatigue, and breakage. It also increases the tire's contact area, accelerating shoulder wear.
When I was driving the Tayron, I read in the manual that the recommended standard tire pressure is between 2.3 and 2.5 bar, usually around 2.4 bar for the front tires and 2.2 bar for the rear tires, but it also depends on the vehicle's load. When the car is empty, adjusting it to 2.4 bar is fine, and it's best to add 0.2 bar when fully loaded. I often check with a tire pressure monitor connected to my phone, and I feel this value provides the smoothest ride, with less tire wear and not too much fuel waste. In winter, higher tire pressure is better for cold starts, while in summer, slightly lower pressure helps avoid blowouts due to high temperatures. Remember to check it monthly with a pump to ensure safety and save money.
I think setting the correct tire pressure for the Tayron is very important. I personally prefer to set it at 2.4 bar for the front tires and 2.3 bar for the rear tires, which is within the range indicated on the door frame label. If the tire pressure is too low, it can easily lead to unstable steering and longer braking distances, especially in rainy conditions, which is very dangerous. If it's too high, the tire contact area decreases, reducing comfort. I've used several tire pressure gauges, and the results were consistent. I always check the tire pressure before taking my family out. Simply put, maintaining this value ensures the car is durable and safe, reducing the need for frequent tire replacements.
