how did the pressure go up


Recommended Posts

i was driving the other day and stopped at a petrol station to get the petrol refilled so after that i thought of checking the tire pressure to my surprise it was 41 psi which gave the shock of my life i always keep 32 psi so how did this happen i reduced quickly.

How this happened?

Always check tire pressure when cold, as after the drive when tire is hot then the air inside expands too and become more. Usually it expands 3-5 psi if u are driving in summer heat, but that's normal and not to worry.

Im not sure how in ur case it reached from 32-41, thats weird. Now keep it at 30 (cold) and drive around and check its pressure and see how much it expands, may be my estimates are wrong for expansion of 5 psi.
