How Can I Tell If My Suzuki Khyber’s Tire Pressure Is Too Low Without a Gauge?

I don’t always have access to a tire pressure gauge, but I’ve noticed that my car feels a bit sluggish and the steering feels heavy. Could this mean my tire pressure is low? What signs should I look for in my Khyber to determine if the tires need inflation?

While a tire pressure gauge is the most accurate way to check your tire pressure, there are some physical signs that can indicate low tire pressure in your Suzuki Khyber.

Signs of Low Tire Pressure:
Flat Appearance: A tire with low pressure will appear flatter, especially at the bottom where it meets the road. It may seem bulged o r sagging compared to the other tires.

Handling Issues: If the steering feels heavy o r the car seems to sway when you drive, this could be a sign that your tires are underinflated.

Uneven Tread Wear: Low pressure causes uneven wear, often more pronounced on the edges of the tire tread.

Tire Warmth: Underinflated tires will be warmer than properly inflated ones after driving, as they generate more friction.

Fix:
Use a Tire Gauge: Get a tire pressure gauge o r visit a local service center to measure and adjust the tire pressure to the recommended levels typically 30–32 PSI for Khyber.

Inspect Tires Regularly: Check tires at least once a month and especially before long trips.
