As winter throws its frosty gauntlet, remember to check your tires. Colder temperatures shrink air molecules within, leading to deflated tires and potential driving woes. Let’s combat this winter pressure drop for optimal performance and safety.

How to Adjust Tire Pressure in Colder Weather:

Check Your Vehicle’s Recommended Tire Pressure:

First, discover your vehicle’s ideal tire pressure. Seek information from your Kia owner’s manual or the trusty sticker inside your driver’s door jamb. Remember, this air pressure number might not apply if you have aftermarket tires.

Use a Quality Tire Pressure Gauge:

Equip yourself with a reliable tire pressure gauge, digital or analog – whatever whispers the language of accuracy. Every tire, including the spare, deserves a personal pressure check.

Check Tire Pressure Regularly:

Cold weather plays tricks on tire pressure. Monitor it regularly, especially after significant temperature swings. A quick weekly checkup keeps the tire gods appeased. In areas with drastic temperature fluctuations, consider more frequent inspections.

Where To Pump Your Tires:

Many gas stations offer free or low-cost air pumps, perfect for a quick top-up. Keep some change handy, just in case. For home comfort, consider a portable air compressor – your own personal pit crew ready for action in your garage or driveway.

Remember, adjusting tire pressure in winter is essential for safe and efficient driving. By following these steps, you can navigate the winter roads with confidence. And if questions arise, – visit our INFINITI dealership, we’re here to help you drive through freezing conditions with confidence.
