AMDifficulty 2/5

When tyre pressure is lower than that recommended by the manufacturer...

Correct answer

the tyres deform and overheat.

If we do not maintain the tyre pressure recommended by the manufacturer, the tread will wear unevenly, deforming more at the sides than in the centre, and the tyres will overheat to such an extent that fuel consumption will increase while driving.
