What to Do When Tire Pressure Is Too High?
1 Answers
Tire pressure that is too high can affect vehicle performance, tire lifespan, and even driving safety. When tire pressure is excessive, it is necessary to release some air. If you have a dial-type tire pressure gauge, you can unscrew the tire valve cap, locate the center of the valve stem, and press lightly. Then, while referring to the pressure gauge, press the air release valve to observe the reading until the tire pressure returns to normal. Relevant information about tire pressure is as follows: 1. Introduction: Tire pressure, strictly speaking, refers to the air pressure inside the tire. In vehicle maintenance, the engine is the heart of the car—its failure can lead to the end of the car's life—while tire pressure is like the car's blood pressure. The level of tire pressure plays a crucial role in the vehicle's performance and power. 2. Hazards of excessive tire pressure: It reduces tire friction and adhesion, affecting braking performance; it can cause steering wheel vibration and deviation, lowering driving comfort.
