What causes wear on both outer edges of a tire?
underinflated tires
Why does your car sway?
most likely bad shock absorbers or underinflated tires
What can affect gas mileage?
Underinflated tires, carrying too much weight in vehicle, excessive speed, engine that needs a tuneup, brakes dragging, or partially clogged catalytic converter.
What are the most effective ways to check and improve car mileage?
Keep tires pumped up. Tires that are underinflated have a higher rolling resistance on the road.
Is it true that Underinflated tires flex too much and build up heat which can lead to tire blowouts?
Yes it is
Where would the tread of a tire be worn out if the tire were under-inflated?
Underinflated tires wear faster on the sides than the middle.
How does tread on tires affect your driving when the tread is worn away and the tires become bald?
the tyres could blow and you may lose controle of your car
Inflate tires after vehicle is weighted down or before?
before. this will prevent the tires from blowing in the case that they might be underinflated to begin with. and be wary of putting the tires to there max pressures as that is not always the pressure that performs the best under heavy weight loads.
How much money can you save by inflating your tires properly?
Fuel economy is decreased by underinflated tires as well as the tire life is decreased. So you could probably see a savings of 5-10% in some cases @ 35 psi on fuel economy and save yourself the price of a set of 4 tires. Fuel economy is also affected by your driving style. Speeding, fast starts/fast stops and general nasty driving habits will kill your fuel economy really fast. Slower & steady with easier take offs from the stops will increase fuel economy.
