Tire pressure is very important!
Low pressure can cause:
High pressure can cause:
Believe it or not, tire pressure changes about 1 PSI per 10°F due to expansion and contraction of the air to the tires. For sustained high speed driving, increasing the tire pressure is recommended. Heavily loaded vehicles also benefit from increased tire pressure.
Higher pressures can help in snow and slush. Lower pressures work better in soft dirt or sand.
For proper inflation pressures refer to owner's manual or call our staff.
