How to Check Car Tire Pressure

Video Transcript

Hi I'm Jake from Burt Brother Tire and on behalf of expertvillage.com, we're here to show you how to correctly check your air pressure. First of all what we're going to do here is remove the valve cap from your valve stem. Use your tire pressure gauge, push it over the valve stem to where you can get a reading and you can see here that the tire is at 40 psi. Okay. If that's the recommended pressure for your vehicle, then you would be done at this point after you would replace the valve cap. But this tire requires a little bit more air pressure, so we're going to add a little bit with our air chuck and air hose. We'll put a little bit more air in and then we'll just double check it until we arrive at the desire air pressure that is to be attained for this proper vehicle and tire. When we get done we reinstall the cap and go onto check the next tire. It's important that you do that, just because it helps you to get better fuel economy, helps your tires wear longer, and just safer all around. So thank you.
