Do you 90% of accident on the road are caused by blow-out?
You can find the right psi for your vehicle on the driver door..
Do you even know there's limit to what pressure you put in your car's tire?
The pressure pumped inside tire are measure in pounds per square inch (psi)?
Do you know that the maximum inflation pressure is indicated in a relatively small-sized print branded near the tire's bead (adjacent to the wheel).
Many lives have been lost due to the errors of our road side Vulcanizers in Nigeria, who pumped whatever they just dim fit into our tires.
Do you know the life-span of every tire is just 4 years?
WHAT IS THE RIGHT PSI TO AVOID BLOW-OUT:
Usually, your tire’s maximum tire pressure is somewhere between 30 and 35 PSI but here in Nigeria it seems all the road side vulcanizer's agreed pressure is 50 and sometimes 60 and that is about 70 to 75% increased psi.
Again you must have heard that if your tire is pumped to the maximum it performs best and reduce fuel comsumption! yes that's very correct...so i will still recommend increasing your pressure from the FEH recommended 35psi by not more than 10% meaning 110% pressure.
Here's how 1.10 x 35 = 38.5psi or max 40psi which is 14.2% increase in pressure.
