Increase in temperature of an underinflated tyre
   
The diagram shows the evolution of the temperature of a tyre at a speed of 180 km/h.
A - Normal range: the temperature remains stable while the specified tyre pressure is maintained.
B - Limit range: A decrease in the nominal inflation pressure of 0.3 bars results in an increase in the temperature when driving at high speeds to over 120 °C.
C - Critical temperature limit: tyre failure is now programmable.
T - Temperature in ° C
t - Travelling time in minutes.
