Can 84h and 84t car tires be used interchangeably?
1 Answers
Car tires with specifications 84h and 84t cannot be used interchangeably as they have different load parameters, which may shorten the tire's service life. The 84h and 84t designations refer to the tire's load index and speed rating. Here, 84 indicates a load index allowing the tire to bear up to 500 kg; h represents a speed rating of 210 km/h; while t denotes a speed rating of 190 km/h. The functions of tires include: 1. Transmitting driving force, braking force, and steering force to enable vehicle operation; 2. Supporting vehicle loads; 3. Absorbing vibrations and impacts during driving to prevent damage to automotive components from severe shocks.
