Which part of the tire will experience increased wear if the tire pressure is too high?
1 Answers
If the tire pressure is too high, the rigidity of the tire increases, while deformation and the contact area with the ground decrease. This leads to higher unit pressure on the central part of the tread, resulting in accelerated wear. It causes central wear on the tire crown, affecting comfort and reducing the tire's lifespan. Below is an introduction to tire pressure: 1. Tire pressure will rise or fall with changes in temperature and tire temperature. Generally, for passenger cars and SUVs, the recommended tire pressure when cold is around 2.3-2.5 bar. 2. Both excessively low and excessively high tire pressure will affect the tire's service life. 3. If the tire pressure is too low, the radial deformation increases, causing excessive deformation on both sides of the tire wall and leading to shoulder wear on the tire crown. This also raises the tire temperature, significantly reducing the tire's lifespan.
