Recommended Tire Pressure

…the tire size on the front axle, rear axle and spare tire (if so equipped) fitted as Original Equipment and provides the vehicle manufacturer's standard cold tire pressure recommendations. Because it is possible for vehicle manufacturers to provide alternate cold inflation pressure recommendations…

…inflation pressure that specific tire is rated to hold. However, the tire's maximum pressure is not necessarily the correct pressure for every vehicle upon which the tire can be used (almost all vehicle manufacturers' recommended tire inflation pressures are less than the tires' maximum pressure).…

…low, remember, it usually represents about 20% of the tire's recommended pressure. Disadvantages of Overinflation An overinflated tire is stiff and unyielding and the size of its footprint in contact with the road is reduced. If a vehicle's tires are overinflated by 6 psi, they could be damaged more…

…the vehicle manufacturer's recommended tire pressure listed on their vehicle's tire placard or in its owner's manual, as well as provides the Street Survival participants the opportunity to use a tire pressure gauge and air hose to check and reset pressures. Note: Because the Street Survival…

…allow tires to be more efficient at radiating heat and the tires will run cooler, building up less hot tire pressure. In this case, the 3-5 psi higher recommended inflation pressure increase helps offset the reduced hot tire pressures resulting from less heat buildup. And finally, all tire pressures…

…recommended inflation pressures of 29 psi front and 33 psi rear, while the other car had its tires inflated 30% lower (20 psi in the front and 23 psi in the rear). We chose 30% under-inflation because it was the percentage of loss initially established by the US DOT at which passive pressure…

…in temperature. This is one of the reasons it's recommended that tire pressures be checked early in the morning before ambient temperatures, the sun's radiant heat, or the heat generated by driving causes the tire pressure to rise. And while tires appear solid, if you could see their microscopic…

…pressures to accommodate higher than North American highway speeds and heavier than typical two-passenger loads. In order to accommodate higher speeds, the tire size and inflation pressure recommendations are tuned beyond what is branded on the tire's sidewalls. These increases in recommended tire…

…Friend Air Pressure vs. Wet Performance Most drivers realize that tire load capacity is determined by tire size and inflation pressure. Larger tires and higher inflation pressures provide more load capacity, while smaller tires and lower tire pressures provide less. An under-inflated tire will tend…

…tire inflation pressure for this tire is 300 kPa (44 psi). It is important to note that the maximum load is rated at an industry specified tire inflation pressure that is often lower then the tire's absolute maximum tire pressure. The tire pressures used to determine the maximum load the tire is…
