Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for JK Tyre Light Commercial Vehicle Tyres.
Troubleshooting tips
Check tyre pressure weekly when tyres are cold; for JK Tyre LCV tyres, maintain 40-45 PSI for front and 45-50 PSI for rear (refer to vehicle placard). Underinflation by 10% can reduce tyre life by 15%.
Inspect tread depth using a tread depth gauge; replace tyres when tread reaches 1.6mm (legal limit). For JK Tyre LCV tyres, uneven wear often indicates misalignment—get wheel alignment checked every 10,000 km.
Rotate tyres every 5,000-7,000 km following the vehicle manufacturer's pattern (typically front-to-rear). JK Tyre recommends rotation for even wear and longer life.
If you experience vibration or pulling, check for wheel balancing and alignment issues. JK Tyre LCV tyres should be balanced dynamically for smooth operation.
For punctures, use JK Tyre authorized service centers for repair; improper repair can damage the casing. Avoid using sealants as permanent fixes.
