wats the pressure?

[Kyrive]

hihi. how to check the pressure for my tire? seems to be soft.. thanks~

[biting_point]

normal recommended pressure for car tyres will be abt 240kPA

It depends....the best guide will be the sticker stating ur tyre pressure that can be found when u open the drivers door...its somewhere on the driver's right side...at where the door catch bracket is located. Or u can check by ur tyre's specification.

Usually.. (car)wheels will have some numbers embedded into the side walls..

these numbers tell you the size of the tires as well as recommended pressure.

whatever pressure it states, when you pump air into them, increase by 5-20kPa.. do not exceed too much or you will risk a blow-out.

 

just some background knowledge:

higher pressure will increase responsiveness - but lower grip

lower pressure will give increased grip - but increased rate of wear

 

the reason I say increase by 5-20kPa is because we are talking about road cars. more pressure would decrease wear and since its a road car... you don't need that much grip.. the grip provided by your manufacturer equipped tires are more then enough for road usage.

oh okok thanks guys~
