How often should I check my tire pressure?

Tire pressure should be checked at least once a month and before long trips. Fluctuations in temperature can affect tire pressure, leading to under-inflation or over-inflation. Typically, tires lose about one pound per square inch of pressure per month under normal conditions, and even more in colder weather. It is also advisable to check tire pressure when tires are cold, as driving causes them to heat up and results in higher readings. Maintaining proper tire pressure is essential for optimal vehicle performance, fuel efficiency, and tire longevity. Most vehicles will have a recommended tire pressure level, which can usually be found on a sticker inside the driver's side doorframe. Keeping tires properly inflated also contributes to safe handling on the road. For more detailed information on tire care, checking Just Tires’ website may provide you with valuable resources.
