What Industry Leaders Say

  • For every 2.96 psi that a car or light truck tire is underinflated, it loses 1% fuel efficiency, and the average car or light truck in North America is riding on a set of tires underinflated by 10-11 psi. That equates to a 3-4% decrease in fuel economy for the average vehicle.
    - National Highway Traffic Safety Association

  • For every 1 psi that a car or light truck tire is underinflated, a tire loses 1.78% of its tread life. The average vehicle, with tires underinflated by 10-11 psi, has 18% - 20% shorter tire life.
    - National Highway Traffic Safety Association

  • Underinflated tires contributed to over 32,000 fatalities in 1999.
    - National Highway Traffic Safety Association

  • Underinflated vehicles (cars, light trucks, heavy duty trucks) in the United States waste 2.8 billion gallons of gasoline annually.
    - Transportation Research Board

  • 85% of Americans do not know how to properly check their tire pressure
    - Rubber Manufacturers Association

  • Michelin supports the use of nitrogen based on its ability to better retain pressure over a period of time.
    -Michelin Technical Bulletin, November 2003

  • Goodyear says 15% under-inflation = 8% less tread mileage and 2.5% decrease in fuel economy
    -Goodyear Radial Truck Tire and Retread Service Manual, Pg. 40

  • 20% under inflation = 15% shorter tire life.
    - Pirelli & C. S.p.A.

  • United States loses over 2 million gallons of fuel each day due to under inflation.
    - United States Dept. of Energy 

  • TMC (Technology & Maintenance Council of the American Trucking Association) says that about 90% of tire failures causing tire road debris is caused by under inflation
    -TMC Tire Air Pressure Study, May 2002

  • Bridgestone says air inflated tires lost an average of 2.7 psi per month and nitrogen inflated tires lost an average of 0.7 psi per month.
