The majority of drivers in California do not know the correct air pressure that their tires should be inflated at. Having lower than recommended pressure can lower your Gas Mileage and compromise the safety and lifespan (tread wear) of your tires. Over inflated tires are also a safety risk, as they can result in a lower than optimal ground contact, in other words; less grip. At American Tire Centers we value the safety of everyone, whether you are our customer or not. Offering free safety inspections and air pressure checks is yet another contribution to the community we live and do business in.

Did you know that by having the correct pressure in your tires, you can save over 5c per gallon at the fuel pump? That’s over 3% of MPG improvement and it doesn’t require your attention more than once a month. Under inflated tires cause more rolling resistance, lowering both your gas mileage, and the safety and life of your tires. Using fuel efficient tires with low ressistance will further boost this figure. Now you can get your tire pressure checked at American Tire Centers for free. We will also do a safety inspection at no cost and warn you of potential problems and safety risks. |

The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that Gas Mileage (MPG) can be lowered by as much as 0.3% for every 1 PSI (pound per square inch) drop in the pressure of all four tires. |
