Well you simply take chalk or shoe polish and lay a stripe up the side wall of the tire and around onto the tread surface. Then take your car for a spin and do some hard cornering. Get out and check the tires. Idealy the chalk should be worn away from the tread surface and around the edge just to the top of the sidewall.... If the chalk is worn away part way down the sidewall then the tire pressure is too low, and you should fill them up, rechalk and try again.
Did that make any sense? :blink:
