What is the suitable tire pressure for Changan CS75 in summer?
2 Answers
Changan CS75's summer tire pressure should be about 0.1bar lower than the standard tire pressure. According to the international GBT2978-2008 standard, the tire pressures for different tires are as follows: Standard tires: 2.4-2.5bar; Reinforced tires: 2.8-2.9bar; Maximum pressure: should not exceed 3.5bar. In winter, the tire pressure should be based on the standard tire pressure of the car tire, with an appropriate increase of about 0.2bar. In summer, the lower limit of the standard tire pressure is generally sufficient. For example, the lower limit for standard tires is 2.4bar. If the car is often parked outdoors, the tire pressure can generally be about 0.1bar lower than the standard to prevent tire blowouts due to high temperatures.
Regarding the tire pressure of the Changan CS75 in summer, as someone with over a decade of driving experience, I believe we should start with safety. In the summer heat, tire pressure tends to rise. If set too high, say above 35 psi, the tires become harder, reducing grip and increasing the risk of skidding during turns. If set too low, below 30 psi, the increased friction can cause overheating and potential blowouts, especially during long highway drives. The manufacturer generally recommends a cold tire pressure of 30-32 psi for the CS75, best measured and adjusted in the cool morning using a tire pressure gauge. Regular checks, such as every two weeks, not only prevent safety hazards but also save fuel and extend tire life—killing multiple birds with one stone. Don’t be lazy; safety is the ultimate money-saver.
