Mechanics (different vehicle systems)
Explanation
When the **tires wear more in the center than on the edges**, this indicates that the **inflation pressure is higher than necessary**.
- **Inflation pressure higher than recommended**: When tires are inflated with more air than the manufacturer recommends, the center of the tire has more contact with the ground than the edges. This causes faster wear in the center of the tire. Additionally, the vehicle may vibrate more and the shock absorbers may be damaged because the tires do not absorb road irregularities well, such as small stones or potholes.
- It is important to **check tire pressure** at least once a month to avoid these problems and ensure good vehicle grip on the road.
