Do Tire Cracks Require Replacement?
1 Answers
Tire cracks should be assessed on a case-by-case basis, as follows: 1. If the cracks appear on the tread (crown) of the tire, the need for replacement depends on the severity of the cracks. 2. If the cracks appear on the sidewall of the tire, especially at the junction between the sidewall and the bead filler, immediate replacement is necessary. Here are some methods to prevent tire cracks: 1. Avoid exposing the car to prolonged sunlight, refrain from heavy acceleration on poor road conditions, and try to prevent the tires from skidding on the ground. 2. Regularly clean dirt or hard debris attached to the tires to avoid damage or punctures.
