Tire Pressure

Check your tire pressure. Your tires must be properly inflated to ensure you’ll have the best possible traction as you drive along – and traction is often severely jeopardized in wet, snowy or icy conditions.
Your tires must be properly inflated to ensure you’ll have the best possible traction as you drive along — and traction is often severely jeopardized in wet, snowy or icy conditions. The air pressure in your tires has likely dropped as the weather has gotten colder, so it’s important to see where things stand now. (You can generally expect that you’ll lose 1 pound per square inch whenever the temperature drops by 10 degrees Fahrenheit.) Again, your trusty owner’s manual will tell you what your target tire pressure should be.
