Does driving over potholes affect tires?
1 Answers
Driving over potholes at low speeds generally has no significant impact. Below is relevant information: 1. Automobile tires: Car tires are one of the crucial components of a vehicle, directly contacting the road surface. Together with the suspension system, they help absorb shocks during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth operation; maintaining excellent traction between wheels and road surface; improving vehicle traction, braking, and off-road capability; bearing the vehicle's weight. The important role tires play in automobiles has gained increasing recognition. 2. Origin: In 1895, with the advent of automobiles, pneumatic tires saw widespread development. The first car tire samples appeared in France in 1895, which were single-tube tires made of plain canvas, featuring tread rubber but no patterns.
