1. Can Low Tires Cause Problems

2. A piece of any monthly vehicle maintenance
schedule is checking the air pressure of your
car’s tires.

3. When airing up wheels your vehicle will get
better gas mileage plus your tire's life will be
extended.

4. Tire air pressure is crucial to a vehicle's
overall performance.

5. Using a basic tire air pressure gauge you can
check your car’s tire air pressure.

6. Gauges can be bought for as low as three
dollars for a basic one or more for a higher
quality one.

7. Once you have a tire air pressure gauge you
may need to check your car’s owner manual
to find the optimal air pressure for your
tires.

8. If you cannot find your owner's manual there
will be a sticker or label on the inside of one
of the doors.

9. How to Fix Low Tires

10. First off you will need to find your ideal tire
air pressure for your vehicle, which can be
found in your owner's manual, data stickers,
or even on-line.

11. Once you know the appropriate air pressure
you must make the trip to a nearby service
station and use their air compressor.

12. The majority of service stations will have
one, but if the one you visited did not have
one try the next one.

13. After that, you must take off rubber covers
which are on the wheel stems and now you
are free to connect the air compressor to
your tire.

14. Fill your wheel with air for a couple of
minutes and then remove the hose and
place your gauge on the stem to check your
air pressure.

15. Perform repeatedly as needed to reach
perfect air pressure.

16. As soon as you have performed all 4 wheels
you can place the plastic tops back on and
you are all set to go.

17. Having Low Tires Can Cause Trouble

18. Count on having lowered gas mileage by
having the incorrect tire air pressure.

19. Gas prices in today’s economic system can
be difficult to deal with.

20. A moment spent at a fuel station is a free
and easy method to improve your gasoline
efficiency.

21. Having the incorrect tire air pressure can
cause your wheels to be worn much more
quickly.

22. Not everybody really wants to buy new
wheels more than they need to due to them
being so expensive.

23. The inaccurate tire air pressure is only a
accident waiting to appear.

24. Sliding due to loss of grip or even a blowout
from destroyed wheels is something that can
happen.
