What Air Pressure Should I Inflate Tires To?

It depends! There are many different resources you can consult to ensure that your tires are correctly inflated. Oftentimes, recommended tire pressure can be found on a sticker inside the driver’s side door, in your owner's manual, or on the sides of some tires. You can quickly check your tire pressure by using a tire pressure gauge, which can be found at many service stations and auto part stores. We recommend always carrying a gauge in your glovebox for easy access.

‍

Keep in mind that different models of tires (all-season, snow, and summer) oftentimes require different tire pressure levels.
