Question 4050
The correct tire inflation pressure is...
- the pressure recommended by the manufacturer in each case.
- 10% higher than the pressure recommended by the manufacturer.
- the pressure appropriate to each person's driving style.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: the pressure recommended by the manufacturer in each case.
The correct pressure is the one specified by the vehicle manufacturer, which usually gives one value for a normal load and another for a maximum load. It is not 10% higher and does not depend on your driving style. You can find it in the manual and often on a label, like the one shown on the edge of the open door in the image.
