Hello! Jfyi, I was not allowed to use the word “tire” in the title so I had to improvise.
For example, a specific car must have(acording manual) 2.3 bars in all wheels. Is driving with 2.0-2.1 bars that bad? And when it’s the best way to measure it, with cold tires or after a drive?
I argue with one of my family member all the time regarding tire pressure. He is maniacal about it(like checking every 2-3 days) and I am curious how bad it is(if it is).
Thx
Well it’s bad for fuel consumption Bad for handling in general You also risk failure at high speeds
If you’re just driving close by its probably fine but if you’re hitting the highway I don’t recommend it.
I agree it’s silly to check it daily unless you got a bad leak. Does the car have sensors in the tires? My first car had a bad leak but the sensor always told me when to fill it.
Thx for the answer. Yes, it has pressure sensor, but it triggers the alarm at around 1.7bars or so, which is already low.
The TPMS warning light will come on when the tire drops 25% below the specified pressure.
