2. Cold inflation pressure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_inflation_pressure

   Cold inflation pressure is a gauge pressure and not an absolute pressure. This article focuses on cold inflation pressures for passenger vehicles and trucks. The general principles are, of course, applicable to bicycle tires, tractor tires, and any other kind of tire with an internal structure that gives it a defined size and shape (as opposed ...

3. Central tire inflation system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Tire_Inflation_System

   Reducing tire pressure also reduces the extent to which the tires grind against loose surfaces, significantly reducing dust and silt. Another function of CTIS is to maintain tire pressure if there is a slow leak or puncture. In this case, the system controls inflation automatically based on the selected pressure the driver has set.

4. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

   [6] In the case of bicycle tires, values of 0.0025 to 0.005 are achieved. [17] These coefficients are measured on rollers, with power meters on road surfaces, or with coast-down tests. In the latter two cases, the effect of air resistance must be subtracted or the tests performed at very low speeds.

5. Contact patch - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_patch

   Colorized tire footprint pressure distribution. The contact patch is the portion of a vehicle's tire that is in actual contact with the road surface.It is commonly used in the discussion of pneumatic (i.e. pressurized) tires, where the term is used strictly to describe the portion of the tire's tread that touches the road surface.

6. Tire-pressure gauge - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_gauge

   The problem with this method was that if tires all lost the same pressure then none would show up against the others to indicate a problem. However, research has shown that both direct and indirect tire pressure monitoring systems are equally effective. [1] Tire-pressure gauges measure air pressure using various methods:

7. Tire-pressure monitoring system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire-pressure_monitoring...

   A tire-pressure monitoring system (TPMS) monitors the air pressure inside the pneumatic tires on vehicles. [1] A TPMS reports real-time tire-pressure information to the driver, using either a gauge, a pictogram display, or a simple low-pressure warning light. TPMS can be divided into two different types – direct (dTPMS) and indirect (iTPMS).

9. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

   Tire uniformity refers to the dynamic mechanical properties of pneumatic tires as strictly defined by a set of measurement standards and test conditions accepted by global tire and car makers. These standards include the parameters of radial force variation , lateral force variation , conicity, ply steer, radial run-out , lateral run-out , and ...
