Why Car Tyre Pressure Checks Matter
When your tyres aren’t at the correct pressure, it can affect a lot of things. Your car won’t handle properly, your braking distance may increase, and your tyres will wear out faster, to name but three. A quick car tyre pressure check can save you money, improve fuel efficiency, and reduce the risk of blowouts — especially in hot weather or at motorway speeds.
Many modern vehicles have a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), but it doesn’t always detect slow leaks or sidewall damage. That’s why our free tyre pressure service includes a full visual inspection from one of our trained technicians.

Get a grip on tyre pressures!
Maintaining the optimum level of grip on the road is essential for ensuring road safety, but it can only be achieved when your tyres have the correct pressure. The diagram below will show you how to tell if your tyres are under-, properly-, or over-inflated, and how under- or over-inflated tyres affect driving performance.
Three Benefits of Properly-inflated Tyres
1 – Safety First
Under-inflated tyres pose significant risks, including overheating and increased chances of bursting, as well as compromising vehicle handling. Low pressure on the front axle can result in understeer, while low pressure on the rear axle may lead to oversteer.
2 – Better Fuel Economy
Both over-inflated and under-inflated tyres incur greater damage compared to those with the correct pressure, necessitating more frequent replacements. Even a 60% inflation, though not uncommon, can accelerate tyre wear, significantly reducing tyre lifespan. Additionally, vehicles with under-inflated tyres experience heightened rolling resistance, something which will also hurt your car’s fuel economy.
3 – Environmental Benefits
Ensuring your tyres are properly inflated optimises fuel efficiency as we’ve seen, so it can also play a vital role in reducing your vehicle’s carbon footprint. By maintaining the correct tyre pressure, you not only lower CO2 emissions but also contribute to protecting the environment for future generations.
