• To ensure optimal tire performance, improve fuel efficiency, enhance vehicle safety, and extend tire lifespan.

• To save money on gas

What tool is used to measure tire pressure?

• tire pressure gauge

• tire pressure meter

• tire pressure scale

• tire pressure sensor

Where can you find the tire valve on a car?

• On the roof.

• Inside the glove compartment.

• Under the driver's seat.

• Clean the valve stem.

• Inspect the tire for any damage.

• Check the tread depth.

What is the recommended tire pressure for most cars?

• 50 psi

• 40 psi

• 30 psi

• It varies depending on the car model and manufacturer.

How long should you inflate the tire for?

• Until it reaches the maximum pressure level

• Until it feels firm to the touch

• Until it is completely full

• Until it reaches the recommended pressure level

What should you do after inflating the tire to the correct pressure?

• Ignore the tire pressure and continue driving.

• Drive the vehicle to test the tire pressure.

• Deflate the tire to a lower pressure.

• Check the tire pressure with a gauge.

Why is it important to properly inflate tires?

• To maintain proper traction on the road.
