It is crucial to maintain your vehicle's tyres in summer, or else you could fall into a big trouble
Take any vehicle in the world—if it is equipped with tyres, the manufacturer suggests a particular tyre pressure. Most of the time, one should maintain the recommended tyre pressure because tyre makers take into account seasonal changes. However, at times, less is better.
Do you know that air inside the tyre expands in summer due to high pressure?
This could lead to the bursting of tyres, which could put you at great risk.

Therefore, it is better to keep slightly less air. For example, let's say your car's recommended tyre pressure is 35. In extreme summer, it is best to keep the pressure at 33.
There are a few other tips you could follow to keep your tyres safe. First, keep your vehicle parked under shade so that direct sunlight and heat don't damage your tyre.
You should also drive a little slow, especially on highways, because the faster you go, the more heat is generated inside your tyre. In short, the air expands more, putting you at greater risk.
