1. A method comprising:

  • receiving, by a computer processor of a computing system from a first plurality of sensors in a vehicle, first tread depth data associated with first tread depths at multiple points on a first tire tread comprised by a first tire on said vehicle;

    first analyzing, by said computer processor, said first tread depth data;

    determining, by said computer processor based on results of said first analyzing, uneven tread wear patterns at said multiple points of said first tire tread;

    receiving, by said computer processor from a second plurality of sensors in said vehicle, sidewall data associated with sidewall portions of sidewalls on said first tire;

    second analyzing, by said computer processor, said sidewall data; and

    determining, by said computer processor based on results of said first analyzing, said second analyzing, and said uneven tread wear patterns, a first tire pressure value for a first internal portion of said first tire, wherein said first tire pressure value comprises a temporary tire pressure value is associated with modifying a first group of tread depths of said first tread depths during operation of said vehicle, and wherein said modifying said first group of tread depths corrects said uneven tread wear patterns.
