Changing from 17-inch to 18-inch wheels cannot pass the registration. Because modifying wheels to non-original sizes is considered illegal modification, even if you proactively apply for registration, it will not be approved. Below is a list of parts that can be modified and those that constitute illegal modifications: Parts that can be modified: Adding a roof rack, installing side steps for a Jeep, or installing front and rear anti-collision devices for small vehicles, as long as they are not too prominent, do not exceed the original length and width of the vehicle, and do not affect the vehicle's safety performance, are not considered modifications. Illegal modifications: Changing the vehicle logo, adding lighting devices, installing xenon lights, etc., any changes to the original basic characteristics of the vehicle are considered illegal. For example, changing a domestic car logo to a "Mercedes-Benz" for fun or adding original Toyota logos, etc., which alter the characteristic identifiers, are considered illegal modifications.

What is the difference between rolling bearings and sliding bearings?

Rolling bearings and sliding bearings differ in the following dimensions: 1. Load capacity: Sliding bearings generally have higher load capacity than rolling bearings. 2. Movement method: Rolling bearings operate through rolling motion, while sliding bearings function through sliding motion. 3. Structural aspect: Rolling bearings contain rolling elements that support the rotating shaft through their rotation. Sliding bearings lack rolling elements and instead use smooth surfaces to support the rotating shaft. 4. Friction coefficient: Rolling bearings have lower and more stable friction coefficients compared to sliding bearings. The lubrication of sliding bearings is more susceptible to external factors such as rotational speed and vibration, resulting in a wider range of friction coefficient variation.
