Do I need to check tyre air pressure more frequently in tubeless tyres?
Monday, December 4, 2017 1:09:46 PM Asia/Calcutta
No, you do not have to check tyre air pressure more frequently than a tube type tyre provided tubeless tyre is fitted properly on a correct rim with proper valve fitment. However, if condition of rim is not good due to conditions such as bent, cracked, rusted etc or tyre/valve is not properly fitted, this can cause frequent air loss problem. Since air pressure is the most critical parameter in a tyre for its optimum performance, it is advisable to check your tyre on a regular basis irrespective of its tube-type/tubeless construction.

Always check tyre air pressure when tyres are cold after vehicle has stopped. Use accurate tyre pressure gauge. If check is made when tyres are hot then inflation pressure above 4 psi than the recommended cold operation air pressure by the vehicle manufacturer is permissible. Check the pressures of your tyres, including spare, once in a fortnight and before any long journey or if traveling with a heavy load. Ensure a dirt-free valve cap is always fitted.
