In 2009, the GMC Sierra 1500 has a tire size of 265-65-18. Tires that are properly inflated last longer and enhance vehicle safety. Insufficient tire pressure can impact braking distances and result in less responsive steering and handling, posing a greater risk during sudden stops or evasive maneuvers to avoid accidents. Proper inflation pressure is crucial for various tire aspects, such as load capacity, tread contact patch shape, and handling characteristics. Underinflated tires generate excess heat, leading to potential structural damage and necessitating more frequent tire replacements.
