Real Tire Pressure

Every wheel in the game now features realistic tire pressure, tire wear, and the risk of a flat tire. Simply look at any wheel on a vehicle, and the game's built-in info panel will display the pressure in bar, the condition, and the key to press. Hold a key to inflate or deflate the tire instantly – no workshop required.

Features:

• Real tire pressure on every wheeled vehicle (0.6 to 2.4 bar)
• Inflate and deflate tires on foot at the press of a button
• Pressure affects appearance and traction: low pressure = more grip off-road, high pressure = higher speed and less wear on the road
• Tires wear down while driving – faster when pressure is wrong for the surface
• Tire damage depends on driving style, speed, tire condition, and terrain
• Flat tires visibly collapse, the body leans in corners, and speed is limited to 12 km/h
• Change tires directly in-game: hold R for 12 seconds (cost: $350)
• Pressure, wear, and flat tires are saved with your game
• Full multiplayer support
• Works with every wheeled vehicle, including mods – no per-vehicle setup required

Ideal pressures:

• Fieldwork: approx. 1.0 bar – tire spreads and grips
• Road transport: approx. 2.0 bar – smooth running, low wear

The risk of a blowout increases with speed (noticeable from 25 km/h, peaking at around 55 km/h), incorrect pressure, worn tires, and driving off-field. With sensible pressure and good tires, you'll work the whole day without issues – but if you race down the road at 50 km/h on soft, worn tires, you'll regret it.
