Can 94v and 98w be used interchangeably?

[McZachary]

94v and 98w cannot be used interchangeably. They are tires with different load indexes. Using tires with different load indexes on the same vehicle can cause inconsistent deformation during high-speed rotation, leading to issues such as vehicle vibration. Additionally, tires with different load indexes have different material compositions, which can accelerate tire wear and pose significant safety risks. Below is some relevant information about tires: 1. Tire lifespan: The wear lifespan of a tire is typically 30,000 to 50,000 kilometers. If a tire has not reached the wear limit or mileage but has been in use for 5 years or has developed numerous cracks on the sidewall, it should be replaced. 2. Tire material: The main component of a tire is rubber. The maximum storage and anti-aging period for rubber, from natural latex to ethylene-propylene and nitrile, does not exceed 10 years. The average service life of various rubber products in use is 3-5 years.
