[ "Whydo we need air-filled tyres?Driversare afraid of blowouts but still, they use air-filled tyres because ofit's undeniablenecessity.Usually, the outer part of atyreis made of natural or synthetic material and the air is filled in atube like a balloon.Therefore,the tube may experience punctures or blowouts whenever the tyre hitsa bump, pothole, nail, piece of glass, or any sharp object.Whydo tyre makers use air in tyres?Tyremakersseem inviting the risk of blowouts but it is not true. They use airin the tyres to make the ride comfortable for drivers. The airpresent in the tyres is able to adjust its volume.Imagineif you drive your car at ahighspeed with tyres made up of solid rubber. The bumps would hit youhard to make the ride extremely uncomfortable.Weare sure you have got the point.Air-filledtyres are able to absorb heavyimpactswith the assistance of shock absorbers.Moreover,inflated tyres offer low rolling resistance. It means it is easier toovercome friction when we are riding with air-filled tyres incomparison with solid rubber tyres.Itis also important to note that solid rubber tyres are going to wearat a faster rate due to high rolling resistance and incapability ofabsorbing shocks.Theuse of nitrogen: a new revolutionNowadays,more drivers are opting for filling up tyres with nitrogen.Mostlynitrogen is usedin high-performance cars but as an increasing trend, the normaldriver also ask for nitrogen in service stations.Nitrogenis preferred by drivers because of its inert nature. Moreover,nitrogen is;more stable when we talk about air pressurefluctuations in the tyres. Asthe cons of nitrogen, itis not accessible easily. On the other hand, the air is free andavailable if you have a pump with you.Therole of tyre inflationAswe see air-filled tyres are essential for the proper performance ofcar tyres. you should note that just filling the air in tyres is notenough but you have to maintain a certain level of air pressure inthe tyres. even ifyoufill the tyres with nitrogen, you need to maintain the level of tyreinflation.Differentcarmakers have different specification about air pressure level.These specifications are usually given in your users manual.Bothlow-inflation and over-inflation are risky for the safety of bothdriver and his vehicle.Low-inflatedtyres will start to rub against the surface with increased contactarea. Asa result, the formation of heat will take place in;TyresExhall todeform the rubber material.Over-inflationinvites blowouts if the driver is riding the car at high-speed.Thus,it is better to check the level of air pressure regularly if you wantto maintain your tyres properly. According to different studies,improperly inflated tyres invite serious accidents because of the poorperformance of the vehicle.Thus,check your users manual today or talk to your mechanic to knowabout proper air pressure in;TyresHolbrooks. Weare sure you will experience better performance, safety and controlwith your perfectly inflated tyres." ]
