Monsoon Car Care: What Should Your Tyre Pressure Be During the Rainy Season?

Driving during the monsoon requires extra caution, as wet roads reduce tyre grip and increase the chances of skidding. While most drivers remember to check their wipers, brakes, and lights before heading out, tyre pressure is often overlooked. Maintaining the correct tyre pressure is one of the simplest ways to improve safety and vehicle performance during rainy weather.

What Is the Correct Tyre Pressure in the Rainy Season?

The ideal tyre pressure during the monsoon is the same pressure recommended by your car's manufacturer. There is no need to increase or decrease tyre pressure just because it's raining.

You can find the recommended tyre pressure:

• On the sticker inside the driver's side door.
• In your vehicle's owner's manual.

Always check tyre pressure when the tyres are cold for the most accurate reading.
