Snowy weather does affect cars. Specific impacts: If it snows, the snow contains acidic substances from the air, which may corrode the car paint when they land on it. After snowfall, road maintenance authorities might spread de-icing agents, which can corrode both the car paint and the chassis. Wash the car promptly after snow: It is recommended to wash the car promptly after snowfall because the muddy water on the roads contains salt and various alkaline substances that adhere to the body, tires, rims, and chassis. If not cleaned in time, prolonged exposure to snow can cause severe corrosion to the car paint and chassis. Therefore, it is best to pay attention to washing the car after snow.

Does blackening wheel hubs require registration?

Wheel hubs, also known as rims, undergo different surface treatment processes depending on the characteristics and requirements of different vehicle models, which can generally be divided into painting and electroplating. Simply changing the color of the wheel hubs does not require registration, as long as the model, size, and dimensions of the wheel hubs are not altered. More details about wheel hubs are as follows: Introduction 1: The wheel hub is the central part of the wheel where the axle is installed, commonly referred to as the "rim" or "steel ring." Wheel hubs are prone to accumulating dirt, and if not cleaned for a long time, they may corrode or deform, posing safety hazards. Therefore, special attention should be paid to the maintenance of wheel hubs. Introduction 2: Due to different language habits, many people have different names for wheel hubs, such as "rim."

What is the tire model specification for the Mercedes-Benz E300?

The tire model specification for the Mercedes-Benz E300 is 245/45R18. The first number, 245, represents the tire width of 245MM. The number 45 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire's cross-section is 45%, meaning the height of the cross-section is 45% of the width. The number 18 represents the rim diameter of 18 inches, and the letter "R" in the middle stands for radial tire. The Mercedes-Benz E300 uses Bridgestone TURANZA run-flat tires, with five-spoke hollow-designed rims. None of the models come with a spare tire as standard. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow the steps below: Take out the spare tire and the jack, place the jack under the frame of the tire you want to replace, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame. Raise the jack until it supports the car. The jack should be positioned under the vehicle, and you should check to ensure the jack is at a right angle to the ground. Remove the hubcap and loosen the nuts counterclockwise. Do not completely remove the nuts; just loosen them enough to eliminate resistance. When loosening the nuts for the first time, keeping the tire on the ground ensures that the nuts, not the tire, are turning. Continue turning the nuts counterclockwise until they are loose. Repeat this step for all lug nuts and then remove them completely. Place the new tire on the rim, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts. Install the lug nuts and tighten them by hand until all nuts are concealed. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, the tire also carries the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, and ZG for steel radial cord tires. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters from A to Z represent certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h. Rim specification: Indicates the rim specification compatible with the tire for practical use, such as standard rim 5.00F.
