What is the tire pressure for 7.00-16 tires?
1 Answers
700r16 steel-belted tires generally require slightly higher pressure than nylon tires. Typically, the front tires should be inflated to 7 bar, while the rear tires should be at 8 bar. Below are key points about vehicle tire pressure: 1. Service life: Both overinflation and underinflation will shorten tire lifespan. Underinflation increases tire deformation and contact area, leading to sidewall cracks, excessive heat generation, rubber degradation, and accelerated shoulder wear. 2. Increased load: Overinflation causes excessive stretching of tire cords, reduces elasticity, and increases the load burden during driving. 3. Follow manufacturer recommendations: Always use the vehicle manufacturer's recommended tire pressure values. These recommendations can typically be found in: the vehicle owner's manual, the label near the driver's door (B-pillar), the drawer beside the driver's seat, or the fuel tank door.
