The Benefits of Maintaining Proper Air Pressure

benefits of proper tire air pressure

Keeping the correct air pressure in the tires of your car, truck, SUV or crossover will help your tires last longer, save fuel, help your vehicle handle better, prevent accidents and even help the environment!

The Benefits of Correct Air Pressure

Experts agree that maintaining the correct air pressure in your tires is nearly as important as getting a tune-up for your engine.  Negative effects of underinflated tires results in poor gas mileage, shorter tire life and poor vehicle handling.

Make Air Pressure Checks Part of Your Maintenance Routine

Tires often get taken for granted since they don’t seem to need much attention. But, did you know that tires lose pressure each day?  In cool weather, a tire typically loses one or two pounds of air per month and in warmer weather, tires will lose air pressure at an even higher rate. Other factors cause a loss of tire pressure as well.

Check the Air Pressure On A Regular Basis

You should have the air pressure checked every other time you get gas or the tires are rotated. Also remember it’s important to have the pressure in your spare tire checked every few months.

Where To Find Air Pressure Information

The correct air pressure can be found in the vehicle owner’s manual or on the tire information label that is attached to the vehicle door edge, doorpost, glove box door or fuel door.

Environmental Impact

Routine air pressure maintenance can have a significant impact on our environment. Experts estimate that most drivers lose from 10% to as much as 50% of tire tread life due to underinflation. This means more tires ending up in our landfills. Underinflated tires burn extra fuel since they require extra energy to roll down the road.

The automobile industry has been persistent in trying to achieve one of the most cherished milestones of all-time. Automakers have been trying to achieve a 100 mile per gallon fuel figure for decades now. The concept of having fuel efficient vehicles had very economical and financial beginnings, however, it has also taken an interesting stance on becoming more environmentally sound. The automobile industry has also been actively trying to make more environmentally sound vehicles that do not harm the environment at the cost of human existence.

The price of gas has been rising for a long time now, particularly due to the dearth of the commodity. This has challenged automakers for the longest time. Japanese, American and German automobile manufacturers have been at the forefront of trying to come up with the 100 mile per gallon vehicle but have been able to land just shy of the target. In light of the recent developments, Google, has begun to experiment on creating a hybrid car fuel to be able to reach the goal of 100 miles per gallon.

Google has been actively tying up with various automobile companies as part of their philanthropic organization to establish the cherished goal. To know more, visit the New Jersey State Auto Auction today.
