Where to Inflate Underinflated Tires?
1 Answers
Here are the solutions for underinflated tires: You can go to an auto repair shop or a 4S dealership to have your tires inflated. Alternatively, you can use a bicycle pump to inflate them. The best option is to purchase a portable electric car air pump (make sure it comes with a tire pressure monitoring device) and keep it in your car for convenient tire inflation anytime. Additional information: 1. The most severe consequence of underinflation is a tire blowout. Similarly, overinflation can also lead to blowouts. However, underinflation is often hard to detect unless deliberately checked. Driving for extended periods with low tire pressure can cause significant damage to the tires and, in severe cases, endanger the safety of the driver and passengers. 2. Underinflation causes considerable harm. Firstly, it increases the tire's self-friction coefficient during movement. The flattened contact patch of the tire creates an abnormal motion compared to the unaffected side, causing the tire to operate out of its normal circular shape. This leads to increased tire temperature.
