According to research by UK charity TyreSafe, as much as three per cent more fuel is used when tyre pressures are only six per cent under-inflated, which could cost drivers an additional \u00a312 on the average cost of a full tank of petrol \u2013 which currently stands at just over \u00a3100.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Henry Bisson, marketing director at Ring, said: \u201cThe range of tyre inflators equips drivers with time and money-saving equipment to ensure their cars are running as efficiently as possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ring has a large range of at-home digital tyre inflators so tyre pressures can be checked quickly and easily without the need to travel to the nearest garage or forecourt \u2013 saving consumers time and money.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAt-home tyre inflation removes the need to travel and further spend money on fuel consumption to the nearest forecourt to use the air machines. It\u2019s recommended that tyres are repressurised when cold, as this gives more accurate inflation &#8211; therefore the best practice is inflating at home with a portable tyre inflator before setting off.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The range of Ring inflators is, therefore, a clever investment to save cash on fuel by both keeping tyres in optimum condition and making fewer trips,\u201d Bisson\u00a0adds.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ring\u2019s award-winning RTC tyre inflator range includes great value, affordable units like the RTC450 (RRP \u00a329.99), packed with features,\u00a0such as auto-stop, a digital display, light, and wind-up cable or the versatile, battery-operated cordless RTC2000 (RRP \u00a339.99), that can be used for cars and bikes. It features a built-in LED light and digital display with four programmable settings. The rechargeable lithium battery can be used as a portable power bank for charging mobile devices.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For more information on Ring\u2019s tyre care product range, visit:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/shop.ringautomotive.com\/tyre-care.html\">https:\/\/shop.ringautomotive.com\/tyre-care.html<\/a> <strong>ENDS.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>As petrol and diesel costs rise to record levels, Ring Automotive has prompted drivers to consider the importance of properly inflated tyres, which can affect <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/2022\/07\/07\/keep-an-eye-on-inflation\/\" title=\"KEEP AN EYE ON INFLATION\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-24015","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24015","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=24015"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/24015\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=24015"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=24015"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tkc.grainwork.co.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=24015"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
