A tire blowout is extremely dangerous. Due to it, you might end up in a collision which may prove costly and fatal. Therefore, instead of beating around the bush, we will get straight to the point. WHAT IS A TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)? It is a device that measures the air pressure in the tires. Most modern vehicles come with a built-in TPMS . Whenever the tire pressure is not at the recommended level, the TPMS will spring into action and display a warning light or message. The TPMS is so essential that many countries worldwide have mandated automobile companies to include this feature in all car models. For example, through the TREAD Act, US forced companies to have TPMS in all vehicles manufactured after 2006. HOW DOES A TPMS WORK? There are two types of TPMS, but they provide the same function. A direct TPMS has sensors inside the wheels. When the pressure is not at the recommended level, it gives a warning light. The other type is Indirect TPMS. Instead of h...

Whether we like to admit it or not, our planet is heading for disaster. The primary reason for it is climate change which is caused by pollution and other factors. When it comes to automobiles, they are responsible for much of the pollution. There is no doubt that the introduction of electric vehicles is playing a crucial role in reducing pollution. But like all other automobiles, electric cars require tires. Many people do not realize that tires are not eco-friendly, even if they are labelled eco-friendly. The reason is that despite the technology and innovations within the tire industry, they still produce greenhouse emissions. Unfortunately, even after they have reached their end of life, they add to the environmental woes. How? Well, not all tires are recyclable and such tires end up in a landfill. As they are not biodegradable, they cause other problems. Therefore, we have to do something about this problem, and it is precisely what we plan to discuss in this blog post. Let us s...

Just like tires, the car battery is considered one of the most vital components in an automobile. It is what powers your entire vehicle. If you have a dead battery, you will not be able to turn on the vehicle. Many people complain that their car battery dies earlier than usual, irrespective of the brand quality. While certainly annoying, what they do not realize is that they themselves are responsible for it. How? It is precisely what we intend to discuss in today’s blog post. 1. LEAVING THE HEADLIGHTS ON The number one reason for a quick draining car battery is accidentally leaving the headlights on. New cars have a feature where the headlights turn off automatically after a fixed time. If you don’t have this feature, check the headlights when parking the car. Leaving the headlights on will not just drain the battery but can also reduce its durability. 2. USING THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM It is okay to use the infotainment system if the engine is turned on. However, if the engine is o...

Over the years, we have talked a lot about tires. For instance, we discussed their functions and various parts. We feel that we have neglected one of the parts – rims. So, today’s blog is all about the rims. Without making you wait any further, let us start our discussion. WHAT IS A RIM? Rims are the outermost part of the tyres on which they rotate. In other words, it is simply an alloy upon which the tires are fixed. The rims are typically made up of aluminium or a simple metal. Rims provide traction to your car and also support the weight of the vehicle. Tires are often confused with the rims as both are thought to be the same while in reality, they aren’t. In simple and easy terms, tyres are the rubber part while the rim is the metal part. WHICH RIM IS SUITABLE FOR YOUR CAR? Rims come in different sizes and designs. The size of the rim of your car depends on the size and weight of your vehicle. A small car would usually require a small rim. For instance, a bigger vehicl...

There are different types of cars for various purposes. For instance, a 4×4 vehicle is designed for off-roading. Similarly, a tractor is most suitable for agricultural lands, while Formula One is for racetracks. We mean to say that there are many categories of vehicles, and each has a specific purpose. Since all these vehicles/trucks have different sizes, bodies, and purposes, they also have their own set of unique tires. Without these tires, the cars cannot perform their duties properly. FLOTATION TIRES One type of tire is a flotation tire. Have you ever taken your 4×4 on an off-road adventure and got stuck in a soft area of land? If yes, it’s most probably because you have the wrong set of tires installed in your off-roader. A standard tire installed in an SUV/truck and 4×4 emphasizes tire tread for better traction. USE Contrary to this, a floating tire is made specifically for floating over soft areas such as sandy soil and agricultural lands. Hence the name floating is give...
