Why Tire Pressure Matters
Safety First
Proper tire pressure prevents blowouts, improves vehicle handling, and reduces stopping distances in emergencies.
Save Money
Correct pressure improves fuel efficiency by up to 3% and extends tire life by 25% or more.
Environment
Better fuel efficiency means lower CO2 emissions, and longer-lasting tires reduce waste.
💡 Did You Know?
Tire pressure decreases by about 1 PSI for every 10°F drop in temperature. Check your tire pressure monthly and before long trips!

Understanding Tire Specifications
What Do Tire Manufacturers Recommend?
Major tire manufacturers like Michelin, Bridgestone, Goodyear, Continental, and Pirelli all emphasize following your vehicle manufacturer's recommended tire pressure rather than the maximum pressure listed on the tire sidewall.
The pressure recommendation on your vehicle's door jamb sticker or owner's manual is specifically calculated for your vehicle's weight, handling characteristics, and tire size.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I check my tire pressure?
Check your tire pressure at least once a month and before long trips. Tire pressure can decrease by 1-2 PSI per month naturally, and changes significantly with temperature fluctuations.
What's the difference between PSI and BAR?
PSI (Pounds per Square Inch) is used in the United States, while BAR is the metric unit used in most other countries. 1 BAR equals approximately 14.5 PSI. Use our converter tool to convert between units.
Should I use the pressure on the tire sidewall?
No. The number on the tire sidewall is the MAXIMUM pressure the tire can safely hold, not the recommended pressure for your vehicle. Always use the pressure specified by your vehicle manufacturer (found on the door jamb sticker or owner's manual).
Where can I find my vehicle's recommended tire pressure?
Check: 1) Driver's side door jamb sticker, 2) Inside the fuel door, 3) Owner's manual, or 4) Search our database by selecting your vehicle brand above.
