Preventive check

Correct tyre pressure is essential to get on the road in a safe and comfortable manner. The compressed air in the tyre carries the mass and it is therefore vital that it is adjusted exactly to the loading and to the speed the tyre rotates.

Correct tyre pressure results:

• lower fuel use
• reduced tyre wear
• excellent grip
• superior road holding

repair

Penetration by a sharp object can result in air between the tyre’s belt layers, which may cause the belts to separate. This also allows moisture to get in and cause oxidation; a combination that weakens the tyre’s structure and can result in a blowout.

Correct repair can only be performed on a tyre removed from the wheel to allow inspection of the tyre’s inner surface. This inspection will determine whether a tyre can be repaired.
