A blown car tire is a serious problem that often affects drivers. This issue can occur anytime and anywhere, and sometimes it can be fatal. So what causes it? And how can it be prevented? For more details, please pay attention to the following review. 

Causes of a Blown Car Tire 

There are several factors that can cause a car tire to suddenly blow out while driving. Here are the complete causes. 

1. Incorrect tire pressure

The main cause of a blown tire is usually due to tire pressure that is not appropriate. Insufficient air pressure can increase the load on the tire, causing it to wear down over time and potentially blow out. Meanwhile, excessive air pressure makes the suspension hard, causing the tire to be less flexible and at risk of blowing out.

2. Foreign objects embedded in the tire

Foreign objects embedded in the tire, such as stones, glass shards, nails, and other sharp objects, are factors that often cause car tires to blow out. 

3. Poor road conditions

Uneven, pothole-filled roads, or roads covered with gravel can also be factors that cause tire blowouts. When a car drives over damaged roads, the tires are at risk of bursting due to being punctured by gravel shards or excessive friction and pressure between the tire and the road surface. 

4. Extreme temperatures

A blown car tire can also be caused by extreme temperature conditions during the hot season. Excessive heat can cause the tire surface to soften. As a result, when the car is in motion, the tire surface can easily rupture and blow out when in contact with the road surface. 

5. Worn tires

Tires that are already worn or thin can also cause a car tire to blow out suddenly. This happens because the tire surface has become bald, losing its grip strength on the road surface. 

Tips to Prevent Car Tires from Blowing Out 

To prevent car tires from blowing out, you can apply the following tips. 

1. Regularly check air pressure

To prevent tires from easily bursting or blowing out, car owners should routinely check the air pressure in the tires before traveling, ensuring that the air pressure is neither too low nor too high. Make sure the tire pressure meets the following standard inflation levels. 

  • Sedan: 30-33 Psi. 
  • City car: 30-36 Psi. 
  • MPV: 33-36 Psi.
  • SUV: 35-40 Psi. 

2. Regularly check for foreign objects in the tires

In addition to checking air pressure, you should also thoroughly inspect the tires to ensure they are free from embedded foreign objects. 

3. Avoid damaged roads

Next tip, you should avoid driving on damaged roads.

4. Avoid driving in extreme temperatures

As a tropical country, Indonesia experiences extreme temperatures during the hot season, especially during the day. It is advisable to avoid driving during the day to prevent the tires from easily expanding. 

5. Regularly check tire wear condition 

Lastly, you need to regularly check the condition of tire wear. Inspect the tread and surface of the tires to see if they are becoming bald. You should also check the condition of the tire components to see if they are thin or not.
