Why am I asking this quesiton? I want to help you save money. Keeping your tires at the proper inflation is very important. Yes, they're just made of rubber. They help you keep traction with the road., If they're in good shape, you don't skid across the road, in the rain.But, here are the points on keeping your tire pressure, in check. By checking your tire pressure, you won't have to buy tires every six months. It won't wear your front brakes out. You'll help out your front end parts. You'll get a better ride. You'll save on your trips to the gas station.Now, here's the what-not-to-dos: Don't trust the free air pump gauges. Carry your own tire gauge. The free air pump gauge is used by everyone. The air gauge is dropping on the ground. It's not calibrated by the service station owner. They're just providing a free service. When airing up your tires, don't use the eye test. You know the one, where you stand back and look to see if the tire no longer touches the ground. This isn't a good tire gauge. Once again, get one from your local part store. Oh yeah, the kick the tire test doesn't work either. Here's something you can use. Your proper tire pressure is located in the driver's door jam. This sticker will inform you of the correct tire pressure and tire size. Use the information located on this sticker. It's there for you to use. You can't go wrong with this information.Until next time, happy motoring.
