Is Nitrogen In Tires Necessary ?
Professional mechanics and those in the automotive service trades often state that perhaps no other part or components of vehicles on the roads and highways of the United States and Canada suffer as much non-appreciation as the wheels and tires on our vehicles. Its not unlike taking an old flame on a trip to Cancun Mexico and that person is totally unappreciative and non-caring.
Yet most of us take our simple tires for granted. After all tires were made to roll. What maintenance do they require other than simple checks of tire pressures from time to time - if ever? Yet what do safety and car insurance collision experts recommend and suggest when it comes to automotive tires . their maintenance and care ? While it can be said that is true that in 2013 , there is less availability of local garages and shops as well as more highly trained auto & truck dealershipservice center staff. It's easy to ask for a tire pressure gauge at a local tire shop. At the worst tip the kid a buck or two. You can alternatively purchase an inexpensive tire pressure gauge at your local big box store. Heck there are even now electronic tire pressure gauges that almost do the whole reading procedure for you in a snap, most conveniently as well as accurately.
It can be said in a simplified form and format that a tire and its rim form a compartment containing air under high pressure. Overall experts note that the atmosphere in a tire carry generally between 90 and 95 % of any said vehicle's weight. This could be any of the following automotive products - cars, trucks, SUV's, truck buses etc. Interestingly the rest of the remaining weight is carried by the internal workings and structure of the tire itself - be it the rubber or steel belts of steel belted radial tires or older fiberglass belted tires.
One tip to automobile owners in this day and age of product recalls is to register your new tires. It used to be that the law required all tire sellers to submit the name of purchasers and owners to the manufacturer for contact from the tire maker or distributor if needed or necessary. However in 2010 this is seldom the case and is no longer required for independent tire dealers.
Lastly as a rule of thumb it is best to check your tire pressures when they are "cold". Those are check and verify your tire pressures before the car has been driven any distance. The recommend tire pressures are usually listed on a sticker on the door jamb of the driver's door. By checking your tire pressures only in this condition you will have a consistent measure of reference for maintaining proper and consistent tire pressures for better handling , safety , tire lifetimes and ultimately better driving and reduced vehicle ownership costs.

For example, its all about road hazard safety will go a long way to avoiding such failures. Tire pressure is the life-blood of any tire; An under-inflated tire generates more heat due to excessive sidewall flexing, adversely effecting handling and fuel economy. Also, the tyres will wear out faster.
