Will a Tire Pressure of 2.8 Cause a Blowout?
1 Answers
When the tire pressure is too high, the elasticity of the tire body will significantly decrease, making it prone to blowouts upon strong impacts. Here are the relevant details: 1. Service Life: Both overinflation and underinflation will shorten the tire's lifespan. Underinflation increases tire body deformation and the contact area with the ground. This can lead to sidewall cracks, excessive heat buildup, and accelerate rubber aging and shoulder wear. 2. Increased Load: Overinflation causes excessive stretching of the tire cords, reducing the tire body's elasticity and increasing the load on the vehicle during driving. 3. Follow Recommended Values: The correct tire pressure should always adhere to the manufacturer's recommended values. These recommended pressures can typically be found in the vehicle's user manual, on the label near the driver's side door (B-pillar), in the drawer next to the driver's seat, or on the fuel tank cap door.
