Does changing the rims affect the annual inspection?
1 Answers
According to Article 10 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations": Changing the rims requires registration with the vehicle management office, otherwise it will not pass the annual inspection. Common knowledge about car rim modifications: 1. Choose the appropriate rim type: Different vehicle models require different rim choices. Do not assume that you can install any type of rim you want. Rims are mainly divided into steel rims, aluminum alloy rims, and magnesium alloy rims. Steel rims are the heaviest and relatively the cheapest, aluminum alloy rims are lighter than steel rims, and magnesium alloy rims are even lighter and softer, with better acceleration performance. However, they are mainly used in racing cars and can only be used on civilian vehicles in areas with excellent road conditions. 2. Use compatible tire types: Rim upgrades should be synchronized with tires. When modifying rims, it is essential to upgrade the tires simultaneously because the size of the tires is closely related to the size of the rims. Some car owners may choose used tires, which is an unwise decision. Used tires have a certain gap in tread life compared to new tires, posing potential safety hazards. Therefore, new tires should be selected for rim upgrades.
