[ "The basic information on car tyresThe tyre pressure can be defined as the amount of air contained within Car Tyres Colindale at any given time. The weight of that air is referred to as the tyre's load, which needs to be supported by the casing and the rim flanges. This pressure has to support its weight and acceleration (including deceleration) forces, cornering loads, and braking loadsWhy is it important?Exceeding or falling below specific values will lead to suboptimal performance of your tyres on the road. Incorrectly inflated tyres are considered one of the main factors leading to accidents; they affect safety by negatively affecting traction, handling (vehicle balance), and durability (risk of puncture or blow-out)Drivers must regularly check their vehicle's tyre pressure to ensure it is correct, especially after the car has suffered an impact. Under-inflated tyres are less efficient than correctly inflated ones because they can generate higher abrasion and deform more efficiently, which reduces the tyre lifeOver-inflation also negatively affects performance by increasing rolling resistance, reducing fuel consumption, and increasing wear of braking components (discs, pads) and noise generation of the contact patch with the road. The wear on your tyres will be reduced if you keep its inflation pressure at the recommended level. Find your car's optimum tyre pressure using one of the various online tools available. It would be best if you weighed the pros and cons of different tyres for your vehicleIn many cases buying cheap tyres is not worth it for several reasons:;It can be dangerous if your tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) alerts you that your tyre pressure has fallen below the legally required minimum pressure. Yet, you don't take action because your spare tyre is flat and unusableIf punctures frequently occur due to under-inflated tyres, their inner tubes will wear down rapidly and need replacing more often  which is why you will pay more in the long runIf the sidewall is too soft, it will wear down more quickly, and you'll have to replace your tyres more frequently  which means you'll spend more money on tyre rotation and balancingUnder-inflated tyres increase braking distances and reduce grip in corners. So if you buy cheap tyres, even though they might save you money during a limited period, they could prove very expensive at other timesHow can I tell whether my tyre pressure is correct?If the STR (Traction rating) number for your tyre is not printed on its sidewall or has worn off, that's also no problem: You can find the STR value in the table of specifications for each of our brands. It is also possible to look it up in our Tyre finder and by entering the tyre size. The result will show the number of load and speed ratings for your tyres, along with their dimensions and maximum permitted loadsWhat tools do I need?You don't need anything special to measure tyre pressure: a digital or analogue pressure gauge can be used successfully. It's best if such devices display readings in increments of 0.05 bar (0.75 psi). However, we recommend that you use a digital tyre pressure gauge because they're easier to read than analogue ones and much more convenient in general: press a button, and the required readings appear instantly. Online calculators can also help. All should have one to be able to measure tyre pressure more preciselyWhat is the correct tyre pressure?The legal minimum tyre pressure in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland is 1.6 bar (21 psi). But don't be tempted to check your tyres too often if you live in a region where the weather conditions generally create stiffer demands on tyres: For example, when temperatures drop below 7C or exceed 38CIt would be best if you never inflate your tyres above the recommended value because doing so could damage the rubber in them over time. Also, never let your car idle with its parking brake on for longer than an hour, as this will cause a gradual loss of air in your tyres due to leaks caused by the expansion of the fluid contained within themIf there are no legal recommendations on the sidewall, you will find the correct Bridgestone Tyres Edgware pressure on the vehicle's registration document or in its owner's manual. If this information is missing, your car dealer can usually supply it for you." ]
