Abstract

Tire is the most important component for a vehicle and tire failure during dri ving may cause fatality. By naked eyes it is very hard to identify the reduction of tire pressure or increase of ifs temperature, therefore the usage of TPMS is very useful to indicate any inconsistency behavior of both items. A Tire PressureB Monitoring System (TPMS) is an electronic system designed to monitor the air pressure or tire temperature inside the pneumatic tires on various types of vehicles. The TPMS system also report real-time tire-pressure and tire temperature which manage to trigger the driver when the level of pressure or temperature reaching the alarming level. This paper is about gathering data on tire pressure and tire temperature information whi le driving on Malaysian highway base on two rims sizes ( 15 inch and 17 inch rims). This research also will provide information on the effect of changing the tire size towards the behavior of tire pressure and temperature in Malaysia highway. The data collection will base on morning. afternoon and night highway driving. Nitrogen gas commonly recommended from a tire shops by mentioning a lots of advantages such as reducing tire temperature, slower pressure Joss and higher pressure stability but additional cost require. In this research, compressed air and Nitrogen gas also will be assessed to understand the effects towards tire behavior in Malaysia highway condition.
