Do All Four Tires Need to Be Replaced at the Same Time?
1 Answers
Car tires do not need to be replaced all four at once. However, if conditions permit, it is recommended to replace all four tires simultaneously to maintain the original handling balance. More detailed information is as follows: 1. It is recommended to rotate the tires every 5,000 to 8,000 kilometers. If only two tires are being replaced, it is advised to install the new tires on the rear wheels. If only one tire is being replaced, the new tire must have a tread groove depth similar to the other tire on the same axle; otherwise, it may cause issues such as vehicle deviation. 2. New tires should be installed on the rear axle of the vehicle. This is because placing more worn tires on the rear axle can significantly increase the risk of oversteering in rainy conditions due to reduced water drainage capability, potentially leading to dangerous situations like vehicle fishtailing.
