Excessive tire pressure may result in a puncture. Insufficient tire pressure will increase fuel consumption. Tire pressure is an important indicator of a car. Whether it is high or low, it will affect the service life of tires and even cause traffic accidents.
If the tire is over-pressed, sharp objects such as nails and glass on the road will easily penetrate into the tire and cause a puncture. Adequate tire pressure will also reduce the contact area between the tire and the ground, and reduce the grip, thereby affecting the speed and braking of the car. In addition, over-pressure tires will affect the suspension, causing bumps in the driving, and of course it is uncomfortable to sit.
If the tire pressure is insufficient, the tire wear will increase, the service life will be shortened, and the friction coefficient between the tire and the road will increase, and fuel consumption will increase. Experiments show that if the tire pressure is lower than the standard pressure value of 30, fuel consumption will increase by 10.
