Does tire pressure matter?

Tire pressure is so important not only for your Clermont Toyota but for any ride! There’s so many reasons why over-inflating or even underfilling your Toyota Highlander tire pressure can have some serious consequences. Here’s a few: 

  • Over-inflating your tires could cause tread wear and reduce your brake function (yikes!)
  • Underfilling your tires means you’re more likely to get a flat or even have your tire blow out!
  • If your tire pressure is low, this means your tires can even overheat.

This is why your tire pressure matters so much! You can cause serious harm to yourself, your passengers, and others around you. It’s always better to be safe and take the right steps to keep your tire pressure at the right levels!
