Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for CEAT Commercial Tyres.
Troubleshooting tips
If you notice uneven wear on your CEAT commercial tyres, check and adjust the air pressure to the recommended PSI for your vehicle's load. Uneven wear often results from underinflation or overinflation, which can be corrected by regular pressure checks.
For vibrations or wobbling at high speeds, have your CEAT tyres balanced and the wheel alignment checked. Misalignment can cause rapid tread wear and reduce fuel efficiency, so it's best to address this promptly.
If you experience frequent punctures or cuts, inspect the tyres for embedded objects and ensure they are not driven over debris. Consider using CEAT's puncture-resistant technology or reinforced sidewalls for added protection in harsh conditions.
To extend the life of your CEAT commercial tyres, rotate them every 10,000-12,000 kilometers, and avoid overloading the vehicle beyond the tyre's load index. Overloading generates excessive heat and can lead to blowouts.
If you notice bulges or blisters on the sidewall, replace the tyre immediately. These indicate internal damage and can cause sudden failure, especially at high speeds or under heavy loads.
