The connection point between the tire and the road determines the safety, comfort and fuel economy of the vehicle
The only connection point between the vehicle and the road, the actual contact area of the tire with the road is only the size of a person's palm. Your safety, comfort and fuel economy all depend on this very small tread. The reason is that your tires:
● Take the full weight of the vehicle-up to 50 times the weight of the tire
●Respond to driving actions such as steering, acceleration and braking, and act on the road
● Absorb the impact of road obstacles
Correct inflation is essential for tire performance and life, as is the driving experience and safety of the vehicle. The tires carry the entire weight of the vehicle, and when they are under-inflated or over-inflated, they cannot work properly. The use of tires in the case of underinflation can also cause tire damage.
