[ "The role of tyre pressure in your driving experience;Tyre pressure is the amount of air inside a tyre at anygiven time. There are two types of tyre pressure: cold and hot. Cold tyrepressure is the amount of air in a tyre when it's been stationary for a while,usually overnight. Hot car tyre Milnathort pressure is how much air there is in a tyreimmediately after being driven or once it has been running for a relativelyshort timeWhat does Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) do?TPMS measures the change in temperature that occurs aseach wheel rotates on its axis through its contact patch with the road -measuring from 100 times per second to 1,000 times per second as necessary -and allows alerts to be sent automatically to your car's on-board computerIn a nutshell, tyre pressure is something you shouldregularly check for your safety, and it's straightforward to do so in thecomfort of your garage using a tyre pressure gauge or TPMS device instead ofwaiting until you get an alert from your car when drivingUsing gauges and TPMS devices saves time andmoney over having your tyres "overinflated", risking an explosion ifthey're accidentally punctured (which isn't unheard of)How often should I change my tyres?The legal minimum tread depth in Europe is 1.6mm acrossthree-quarters of the breadth - around 4.1mm - of the tires cross-section,which is roughly the width of a 2 coin. Worn tyres are illegal and dangerous,as they're less able to grip on wet roads and provide adequate braking. It isimperative to check your tread depth now before slippage becomes an issue withwinter coming up!;One thing that most motorists don't know is thatreplacing just one tyre instead of two doesn't save you money at all unlessspecial measures are taken for mounting, balancing and certification, so usingthe same method as above, calculate how much money you would have saved bybuying single Nexen Tyres Milnathort;with or TPMS fittedWhat is Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)?The TPMS system is designed to warn you in the event of apressure loss so that you can take corrective action. Each wheel has one ormore valves that are fitted with small electronic sensors, called transducers.The valve consists of two parts, an upper and lower half. Each half holds aninflatable rubber chamber filled with nitrogen gas at roughly 150 psi (10bars).A steady flow of air flows through the chambers tokeep them filled, but if there's any sudden drop in tyre pressure, it willtrigger the sensor on top of the valve, which sends a signal to your car informingit that something is wrong. You'll get a warning on your dashboard telling youwhich wheel needs attentionHow do I maintain tyre pressure?The best answer is to check your tyres regularly with agood quality TPMS device or use the free one that came with your car when youbought it. If you drive another make of car, there are various types on themarket so ask your dealer for adviceIf you get a blowout whilst driving, check your pressuresand see if they're low. If the answer is yes, then pump them up and keepyourself safe! If one of your wheels decides to blow off while driving, wewould like to know because we've never heard of such a thing, and it should beadvertised, so people stop using CarTyres Milnathort winter tyres in the summerMaintaining tyre pressure helps drivers save onfuel costs and prolongs the life of their tyres. Maintaining correct tyreinflation pressures also reduces the risk of a potentially dangerous blowoutwhile ensuring vehicle stability and safety. TPMS has been a new compulsoryfeature on all vehicles in Europe since November 2014This system features an electronic sensor within eachwheel that measures the air pressure inside the tyre against atmosphericpressure to warn you of any drop in under-inflation, which could lead todangerous driving conditions.To avoid long term damage, it's a best practicethat your car/van/lorry has TPMS fitted from its first outing becauseunder-inflated car tyres Milnathort are responsible for up to 25% of the total fuel consumed." ]
