A cut on the sidewall of a tire cannot be repaired. Of course, this also depends on the depth of the cut. If the cut is not deep, it can be repaired, but if it is deep, it is recommended to replace the tire promptly. Damage to the tread of the tire can generally be repaired as long as it is not too severe. A tire can be repaired for a hole up to 6 millimeters deep. If the cut on the tread exceeds 6 millimeters, there is no need to repair it, and the tire should be replaced immediately with a new one. Because the gap is too large, even if the tire is repaired immediately, during driving, especially during sharp turns or aggressive maneuvers, the cut may worsen, posing a more serious safety risk. Tires are the components of a car that come into direct contact with the ground and play a crucial role in the vehicle's operation. They support the weight of the vehicle, work with the suspension to absorb shocks during driving, ensure a comfortable ride and smooth handling, maintain good traction between the wheels and the road, and improve the car's traction, braking, and off-road capabilities.

Does it have any impact if the steering wheel is not straightened when the car is parked properly?

It does have an impact if the steering wheel is not straightened when the car is parked properly. The impacts include: 1. The wheels will pull the tie rods and prevent them from returning to their original position. At the same time, the gears of the steering wheel and the racks of the tie rods will remain under stress, which can accelerate the aging or deformation of these parts; 2. It puts significant pressure on the sidewalls of the tires. Since the sidewalls of tires are relatively thin, this can cause uneven force distribution on the tires, accelerating the aging and deformation of the tire sidewalls. Methods to avoid parking the car with the steering wheel not straightened include: 1. Consciously straighten the steering wheel when parking; 2. Judge whether the steering wheel is straightened based on the number of turns of the steering wheel.
