- Central Tire Inflation (CTI); tire pressure
- Abstract
- Recent technological advances have provided drivers with the ability to control vehicle tire pressure while in motion. This technology enhances mobility and reduced impact on terrain, vehicles, and occupants. Central Tire Inflation (CTI) allows operators to match tire pressures to surface and loading conditions without delaying progress.
