Tires with a width of 235 are better. The 225 tires have poor shock absorption, making the road feel harder, and they require better suspension damping effects; otherwise, the car may shake. The 235 tires provide better grip on the road, offering stronger driving comfort for the owner. Below are the functions of car tires: 1. Support the entire weight of the vehicle: Car tires support the full weight of the vehicle, bear the load of the car, and transmit forces and moments in other directions. 2. Improve vehicle performance: Car tires transmit traction and braking torque to ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road, enhancing the car's power, braking, and off-road capability; they work together with the car's suspension to mitigate shocks during driving and dampen the resulting vibrations. 3. Prevent early damage to car components: Car tires protect car components from severe vibrations and early damage, adapt to the vehicle's high-speed performance, reduce driving noise, and ensure driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel economy.

Will insurance cover water damage to a car caused by rain?

If a car gets flooded during rainy weather, the insurance company will provide reasonable compensation based on the extent of water damage and the insurance coverage purchased by the car owner. If the owner only has collision insurance, they can receive compensation for rescue and cleaning costs (excluding the engine), electrical damage, and interior damage caused by water ingress. Here are some precautions for driving in rainy weather: Reduce speed and drive slowly: In severe weather conditions, strictly control your driving speed to allow yourself enough time to react. Rain reduces tire traction on the road, so try to maintain a low speed, using second or third gear, and keep your speed below 30 or 40 km/h. When driving at high speed on highways with thin layers of standing water, a film of water can prevent tires from directly contacting the road surface, causing the vehicle to hydroplane and potentially lose control. When parking, slow down about 100 meters in advance to give following vehicles enough time to react.

How long does it take for a car to be transported from the port to the 4S store?

Imported vehicles arriving at the port are generally divided into several channels: one is the 4S store's order vehicles, the second is vehicles from import trade dealerships, and the third is vehicles seized by customs under small trade. If the vehicle is ordered by a 4S store, it usually takes about half a month to reach the local 4S store. Below is extended information: Tax calculation: Generally, imported vehicles sold in the automotive market refer to vehicles whose parts and assembly process are completed overseas and then transported to the domestic automotive market for sale via import. The calculation method for the vehicle purchase tax on imported vehicles is: taxable price = customs duty-paid price + customs duty + consumption tax, and the tax payable = taxable price * 10%. According to relevant policy requirements, imported vehicles, like domestically produced models in China, are required to pay the purchase tax, except that the vehicle's certificate of conformity is different.

Does idling with the AC on have any impact?

Keeping the AC on while the car is idling has a slight impact on the engine, as it can lead to carbon buildup, particularly around the exhaust pipe tailpipe, and increases fuel consumption. Although idling with the AC on does not cause significant harm to the car, it is still advisable to minimize this practice. Here is some additional information: Car Air Conditioning: The car air conditioning system is a crucial comfort feature in vehicles, capable of both cooling and heating. When the AC is in cooling mode, the compressor clutch engages, causing the engine to drive the compressor. The compressor then continuously compresses the refrigerant and delivers it to the evaporator.

What is the maximum distance for a car key to unlock the vehicle?

The maximum reception distance is approximately 50 meters, which is achievable only under conditions without any electronic interference or physical obstructions. Typically, within a range of over 10 meters, the signal is at its best and most easily received. Additionally, the reception distance is related to factors such as the quality of the remote key. Below is additional information: Remote Key: A remote key allows for the locking and unlocking of doors from a distance without inserting the key into the keyhole. Its greatest advantage is the convenience of performing these operations remotely, regardless of whether it is day or night, without the need to locate the keyhole.

Experiencing a Speed Bump Sensation While Driving?

Such noises are not emitted by the tires but are likely caused by faults in the vehicle's suspension system leading to abnormal sounds. Possible causes include deformed brackets, loose ball joints, bent tie rods, or aging and cracking of rubber components in the suspension system. Deformed brackets not only cause abnormal noises but also reduce the vehicle's stability. It is recommended to replace faulty parts promptly to ensure driving safety. Below is additional information: Notes: Loose ball joints, besides causing abnormal noises, may also result in unresponsive steering during turns, so faulty parts should be replaced immediately. Bent tie rods, apart from causing abnormal noises, might lead to the vehicle pulling to one side while driving, affecting the four-wheel alignment data and causing uneven tire wear. Therefore, replacement is advised.

Is Water Damage Insurance Included in Auto Insurance?

Generally speaking, comprehensive auto insurance includes compulsory traffic insurance, vehicle damage insurance, third-party liability insurance, no-deductible coverage, and passenger liability insurance. Comprehensive auto insurance does not include water damage insurance. Water damage insurance is not an independent type of insurance and cannot be purchased separately; it is an additional coverage attached to the basic insurance. Here is additional information: Water damage insurance is purchased as an add-on to vehicle damage insurance. The policyholder must first purchase the main vehicle damage insurance before adding water damage insurance. Since water damage insurance provides additional protection for the policyholder, damage to the engine caused by water submersion will also be covered. However, if the policyholder forcibly starts the engine after the vehicle is submerged, causing damage, the insurance company will not compensate for the loss.
