pressure.
NOTE
. Correct tire pressure (tread worn
evenly)
. Abnormally low tire pressure (tread
worn at shoulders)
Roadholding is good, and steering is
responsive. Rolling resistance is low, so
fuel consumption is also lower.
Rolling resistance is high, so fuel consumption is also higher.
. The air pressure in a tire increases
by approximately 4.3 psi (30 kPa, 0.3
kgf/cm2) when the tire becomes warm.
. The tires are considered cold when
the vehicle has been parked for at least
3 hours or has been driven less than
one mile (1.6 km).
WARNING
Do not let air out of warm tires to
adjust pressure. Doing so will result
in low tire pressure.
Incorrect tire pressures detract from controllability and ride comfort, and they
cause the tires to wear abnormally.
