Where to Check the Standard Tire Pressure for Car Tires?
2 Answers
You can find the standard tire pressure for car tires in the vehicle's user manual, on the label near the B-pillar in the driver's cabin, in the drawer next to the driver's seat, or on the small door of the fuel tank cap. The tire pressure is usually based on the manufacturer's recommended value. Typically, run-flat tires and regular tires have a normal pressure range between 2.2 and 2.5 bar. However, the manufacturer's recommended tire pressure can only serve as a reference, as the actual pressure may vary due to various factors. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on vehicles or machinery, usually installed on metal rims. They support the vehicle body, absorb external shocks, ensure contact with the road surface, and maintain the vehicle's driving performance.
I just researched this a couple days ago, and there are actually quite a few places to check tire pressure. The most accurate method is to refer to your vehicle's owner's manual, usually found in the glove compartment. You can also find the recommended values on the sticker located on the B-pillar or the driver's side door sill—just crouch down to see it. If your car is equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system, you can check real-time pressure in the vehicle settings menu on the center console screen. In summer when temperatures are high, you should reduce pressure by about 0.2 bar, while in winter you might need to add a bit more air. Last month during maintenance, the technician specifically warned that incorrect tire pressure can cause uneven tire wear and increase fuel consumption by up to 5%.
