Want to save gas and be safer on the road as you drive? If so, proper tire pressure helps with both! Save gas and grip the road better! “A perfectly inflated tire ensures optimal grip, safety, and fuel efficiency.” (Source: Discount Tire Tips and Guides)

Sometimes Pressure is Good

Tire Pressure too Low:

When tires are low (underinflated tires), your engine works harder to move the vehicle. As a result, your fuel efficiency drops and your gas costs go up.  Even more importantly, it’s also less safe.

Low tire pressure can also reduce traction, increase stopping distances, and lead to uneven tire wear.

Tire Pressure too High:

High tire pressure (over-inflated tires) means the tire’s air level exceeds the manufacturer’s recommended setting. When on the road, this significantly decreases your tire’s contact patch with the asphalt so it’s less safe. Plus, this leads to a bumpier ride, needs longer braking distances, and gives you less responsive handling.

Maintain Good Tire Pressure for Gas Saving and Safety

Knowing the importance of tire pressures, it’s easy to keep it steady. Good maintenance protects your vehicle, its occupants, and helps avoid preventable car insurance claims. Tires are visible; simply walking around your car to check them could catch a problem before you’re on the road.

PRO TIP: A quick monthly tire pressure check takes only a few minutes but can help save gas money, improve safety, and reduce vehicle expenses.

Save Gas, Improve Safety

To recap, keeping your tires properly inflated helps you save gas and drive more safely. Low tire pressure makes your car work harder and burn more fuel. High tire pressure is also less safe by reducing traction and making stopping take longer. A quick tire check can save money and help keep you safer.
