Do I Need to Change Tires When Modifying Car Rims?

[LaPaisley]

Modifying car rims does not require changing tires, provided that the new rims are of the same size as the original ones. If the new rims are larger or smaller than the original, then it is necessary to replace the tires with ones that match the new rims. The width of the rim determines the width of the tire. If you want to install larger and wider rims, the tires must also be matched accordingly. The rim is the cylindrical metal component inside the car tire that supports the tire, centered around the axle. In simple terms, it is the part of the wheel where the axle is mounted, serving as a crucial component connecting the brake drum (or brake disc), wheel disc, and axle. Car tires are one of the essential components of a vehicle, directly contacting the road surface and working together with the car's suspension to absorb shocks encountered during driving.
