Coleman Hawkins · Answer 1

option B

Explanation:

It is given that in the tire the recommended pressure is 35 PSI however the current pressure is only 26 PSI which means that pressure in the tire is less than the recommended so the chances of blowout of the tire gets eliminated hence option A is not correct.

Having pressure less in the tire can lead to the Unstable handling of the vehicle.

so correct answer is option B
