The tire pressure monitoring system continuously supervises the air pressure in your tires and notifies you when a tire is experiencing inflation issues. Older model vehicles do not have TPMS technology, and instead must rely on manual tire gauges to routinely check tire pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two types of tire pressure monitoring systems, indirect and direct. Indirect tire pressure monitoring systems supervise the number of revolutions a tire takes while driving, and direct tire pressure monitoring systems monitor air pressure levels through detection sensors in each tire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Risks Associated With Over-Inflated Tires<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Overinflated tires pose several risks and potential automotive damages. If a tire has too much air pressure, it has a higher chance of blowing out on the road. This risk increases even more if the temperature of the air inside the tires increases, which is common on long distance drives. Furthermore, overinflated tires cannot make as much contact with the road as properly inflated tires do, rendering less driver control. This is especially dangerous in wet road conditions and inclement weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"has-medium-font-size wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Risks Associated With Under-Inflated Tires<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Underinflated tires pose just as much risk as overinflated tires do. Driving around with under-inflated tires, or tires that do not have enough air pressure inside of them, can take a significant toll on your fuel efficiency. You will burn up your gasoline faster with underinflated tires. Under-inflated tires are also more prone to bulging, which creates vulnerable spots that can burst without warning. Like overinflated tires, underinflated tires can also decrease driver control and mobility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong>Has your car seen its last mile?
