Are You Inflating Your Tyres Correctly- Houston Auto Web

One of the most important parts of regular car maintenance and care is correctly monitoring and filling your tyres. However, maintaining proper tyre pressure is essential to your safety and to the road performance of your Hyundai car. Correct tyre inflation enhances your car's handling and control, increases fuel efficiency, increases tyre life, and lowers the possibility of blowouts and accidents. Make it a practice to regularly check your tyres for inflation by doing so when you refuel. The amount of driving you do, how much weight your car is towing, the weather, and how drastically the seasons change will all affect how often you need to fill your tires. Checking them no less than once a month is a decent rule of thumb.




 

Examining Tyre Pressure

 

Keep the PSI of your tyres at the prescribed level. This varies from car to automobile, depending on the manufacturer of the vehicle and the size of your tyres. The tyre placard, which may be kept in the glove box or one of the front door holes, or your car's owner manual can both be used to determine the recommended PSI. Avoid the mistake of utilizing the maximum PSI indicated on the sidewall of the tyre, as overinflated tyres deteriorate more quickly.

 

Remember that the pressure in your front and rear tyres may vary when you inflate your tyres. The majority of gas stations have to include air hoses and tyre pressure gauges. However, if you're going on a road trip and utilizing a portable pump, it's a good idea to purchase your own mechanical/pneumatic gauge for readings that are more accurate.

 

How To Properly Inflate Your Tires

 

Here is the proper technique to inflate your tyres, whether you're using a foot pump, a 12-bolt air compressor, or any other method:

 

  1. First, open the air valve cover on your tyre.

 

  1. Look at the pressure reading on the gauge after firmly pressing the tyre pressure gauge onto the tyre valve.

 

  1. If the tyre pressure is below the recommended PSI, connect the air hose to the tyre valve and pump air into the tyre until it is inflated to the proper pressure.

 

  1. After that, check the pressure once more using the tyre pressure gauge. The tyre may momentarily read more pressure than it actually is after being filled. Each tyre will return to normal pressure in about one or two minutes.

 

  1. Reattach the cap to the tyre air valve once the tyres are properly inflated.

 

Use caution when using an air compressor because they frequently heat up during inflation to the point where they are dangerous to handle. Additionally, some air compressors will shut off if they get too hot. Don't forget to check the pressure in your spare tyre when inspecting and adjusting the pressure in your other tyres.
