Brakes and Tires
Vehicles require brakes and tires to be steered and controlled. Tires allow better vehicle performance by providing a flexible cushion to absorb the shock, while brakes control the spin of the tires, thus controlling the speed of the vehicle.

The tire pressue depends on what vehicle you have this tire mounted on. The PSI listed on the tire sidewall is the maximum pressure they tire can handle not the correct pressure for the vehicle it is mounted on. The correct pressure for your vehicle/trailer will be listed in the owners manual and on the drivers door post or on the trailer.
How would bad shocks and bad struts effect your tires over a peiod of time?
Well first, they don't effect....they affect your tires causing premature wear. The faster wear happens because the tire is not rolling smoothly over the surface. This causes the tires to get flat spots (sometimes called cupping) and to wear unevenly. It's kind of like your shoes. If you look at the way your shoes wear you can tell where you are putting the most pressure on them. It causes the heal to wear unevenly and sometimes you can wear a hole in the soles long before the shoes are completely worn out. Same thing happens to tires. You will have areas on the tire worn clear down to the threads (belts) and yet some areas still have a lot of rubber left.
