Over-inflation is just as dangerous.

June 3rd, 2009

Greetings Thrifty Friends,

Last issue we discussed how important it is to keep your
tires inflated properly as under-inflated tires can cost
you as much as 7 cents per gallon of gas not to mention
the safety issues that can arise.

But I did not mention that over-inflated tires can be just
as dangerous as under-inflated tires. I wouldn’t want any
readers to over-compensate thinking they are saving gas
and money while putting themselves at greater risk on the
road.

So please scroll down for some important items on over-
inflation.

Keep pinchin’ those pennies,
Penny

TODAY’S THRIFTY TIP:

* Overinflated tires have its own set of risks. Overinflated
tires are riding on just the centre portion of each tire
treads, wearing out the centre portion of the tires faster
than the edges, thus shortening the useful lifespan of the
tires.

BONUS TIP:

* Being stiff, overinflated tires are therefore more prone
to punctures by foreign sharp objects.

* They offer substantially lesser grip with the road due to
smaller footprint on the road and subjected to spinning and
skidding when certain thresholds are crossed under certain
situations such as cornering at high speed or sudden brakes
carried out on wet conditions.
