Correct answer
reduces the risk of a tyre blowout.
The manufacturer’s specified pressure for the relevant load helps reduce blowout risk and abnormal wear. Underinflation increases tyre deformation and heat. Check pressure regularly when cold, at least monthly and before long trips, following manufacturer guidance; correct pressure cannot prevent every blowout.
