4 Tips to Avoid Tyre Pressure Issues

by Gilgal Tyres Automotive Business

Pressure is something that can create a diamond as well as turn out to be dangerous. Uncontrolled pressure can lead to unwanted situations in life. Be it mental pressure or pressure of some other sort. The secret to having a calm mind is to know how to handle this pressure and also how one should not lose their temper at all times. Work pressure, family pressure, and then you have other things that you need to take care of, which is an extra load of pressure. When it goes out of control, you lose it and let it all out at once. This can be troublesome, for you, as it depends on where and with whom you are.


Something similar can be said about the pressure in tyres. When maintained properly, the air pressure in your tyres keeps your car stable, smooth and in control, whereas, high or low pressure can be an agent of danger. Avoid the possibility of this trouble by keeping a regular check on your tyres and keeping a lookout for a few things. After reading this article, you’ll be well aware of what to keep in check and how to avoid any unwanted situation.


Know the Adequate Air Pressure


Air pressure of your tyres is something that should be maintained to keep the car going smoothly, as well as to prevent them from wearing off quickly. Keep a regular check on the air pressure of your tyres and refill whenever you feel there is a need to. Refer to the owner’s manual or the sticker on the driver-side door of your car to know the recommended air pressure for your car. Manufacturers often place this sticker on the fuel cap too, so check it out if you don’t find it on the inside of the door.


Adjusting the Air Pressure


Although it is not recommended, many people like to fiddle and adjust their car’s tyre’s air pressure. According to them, this helps in gaining more control of the car and save them from impact. This, however, is not true and has other drastic results. Rapid tyre wear and reduced control are two of the drawbacks of adjusting air pressure. There is a recommended air pressure for your car’s tyres which has been tested and adjusted to work the best and also for the longest.


If you still want to fiddle with the air pressure, only make small adjustments and not by a huge margin.


Temperature affects Air Pressure


Temperature is a big influencer when talking about air pressure of your tyres. It is not that your car tyres lose more air, but rather the air inside condenses and expands when the temperature outside changes. Check your tyres when they’re hot for air pressure. Leave a pound or two lesser than usual and recheck when the tyres are cold. The change in temperature might result in unexplainable leaks.


Low-Pressure Damage


Driving your car with under-inflated tyres can result in excess heat generation, which in turn then increases the speed of tyre wear. Area of contact, between the road and the tyres, increases when driving with under-inflated tyres resulting in extra friction, thus, generation of extra heat. This extra heat breaks the bonds between the polymers and causes a faster wear-off. Nowadays, the presence of a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) is really helpful and alerts the driver when there is a decree in the air pressure of the tyres Middleton. This piece of equipment is something that one shouldn’t ignore and keep an eye on, always.



Tyre pressure is an important yet neglected requirement of cars. Something as simple as this can be both, a boon and a bane, depending upon how you perceive it. Pay attention to it and you’ll have stress free rides, whereas, ignore it and you’re sure to end up in trouble sooner or later.
