T= Tread
I= Inflation
R= Rotation
E= Expense
Improper tire pressure (too much or too little) is actually the most common cause for tire failure. Find your vehicle’s recommended tire pressure printed on a sticker inside the driver’s door (not on the tires themselves!). It’s important to check inflation much more frequently that your treads (monthly is ideal). For consistency, pressure should be tested at room temperature (around 70 degrees) because it will vary with temperature. Some have switched to filling tires with pure-dry Nitrogen which fluctuates less in varying temperatures. Proper inflation is a easy way to get more from your tires and your vehicle as it improves fuel economy and slows the wearing of your tread.
