A digital tool assists vehicle owners in determining the appropriate inflation level for tires produced by a specific manufacturer. For instance, it might consider vehicle specifications, load requirements, and ambient temperature to recommend optimal pressures. This ensures safe and efficient vehicle operation.
Maintaining correct tire inflation is crucial for vehicle handling, fuel efficiency, and tire longevity. Underinflated tires increase rolling resistance, reducing fuel economy and increasing wear. Overinflation can lead to a harsher ride, reduced traction, and increased risk of tire damage. Historically, drivers relied on generic pressure recommendations or the information printed on the tire sidewall. Dedicated tools offer a more precise and tailored approach, enhancing safety and performance.
