Question 5680

When tires wear more in the center than on the edges, the inflation pressure is...

  1. correct.
  2. lower than necessary.
  3. higher than necessary.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: higher than necessary.

With too much air, the tire rests mainly on the center of the tread, which wears out before the edges. When the edges wear more, there is too little air. At the correct pressure, the tread wears evenly.
