How to check tyre pressure

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Wheel

Video tutorial

Let’s see how to easily adjust tyre pressure. Neglecting this check means consuming more fuel, worsening comfort, uneven tyre wear, and consequently changing them more often.

Of course, safety during braking is also compromised. The first recommendation is to consult a professional, who will also perform balancing and alignment.

Otherwise, a quick stop at the petrol station is sufficient to check tyre pressure. If you want to do it yourself, first, you need to know the correct pressure for your tyres.

This information can be found in the owner's manual, but it is also on the inside of the driver's door or on the fuel flap. An excellent solution is to purchase a portable compressor: you can find them on Amazon starting from £29.99, including delivery.

If you have a tyre inflation kit instead of a spare wheel, you don’t even need to buy one; you already have it. The correct pressure is important because it ensures the tyre makes optimal contact with the ground. Keep an eye out for any bulges as well.
