Fuel Saving Tip: Tire Pressure Saves Fuel in Louisville

Posted August 21, 2022 10:53 AM



Underinflated tires waste gas for lots of folks in the Louisville area. Think how hard it is to walk in sand – you just have to work harder because of the resistance. When your tires don't have enough air in them, their rolling resistance is dramatically increased and it simply takes more gas to get from here to there.

Always check your tire pressure when you gas up at one of our local Louisville service stations. If they're low – even just a little bit – bring them up to proper pressure. There's a sticker on the inside of your driver's door that gives the manufacturer's recommended tire pressure.

And don't rely on your tire pressure monitoring system to alert you to when you need more air. The TPMS system is set to warn you when pressure drops 20 percent below recommendations. That's severely underinflated and you needed more air a long time ago. And if you have a slow leak – get it fixed right away at American Brake Centers Inc..

Get some air and save some gas.

What Our Customers Are Saying

I appreciate that Scott gave me the perfect time to drop it off. He also called me with the price and the time he could have it ready, which was very accurate for pickup time. He was asked to fix a backyard mechanics mistake and did a great job. I wish I had gone with the American Brake Center before thinking cheaper was better. Do yourself a favor and use a professional.??????????

This place is wonderful! I called them for help to check my brakes that had just been changed but still weren't working correctly and they were nice enough to squeeze me in right at opening when they had a full day scheduled and only took about 30 mins to get my issue fixed and had me on my way. I can't thank them enough for what they did! If I ever need anything else done, I'm glad I know a place I can trust. Thank you guys!
