    Tire Pressure Too High
    - If your vehicle’s tires are over inflated, they have less contact with the road, resulting in less grip and traction. This can decrease the braking power and increase the effective stopping distance. Over inflation can also increase tire wear in the center portion of the tread, and expose the tires to damage from potholes and road debris.


    Tire Pressure Too Low
    - Under inflated tires have too much of the tire in contact with the road, making the tire too hot and possibly causing overheating and/or failure. Under inflation also increases tire wear at the edges of the tread and decreases fuel economy.


    Uneven Tire Pressure
    - If all the tires don’t have the same tire pressure, your vehicle will pull to the left or right. You can feel this pull through your steering wheel.
