Does Tire Size Affect Annual Inspection?
1 Answers
Tire size does affect the annual inspection. If the vehicle's tire size has been changed, it will not pass the annual inspection. The law does not allow arbitrary changes to tire size, as this can impact the vehicle's performance and comfort, and in severe cases, may compromise driving safety and lead to traffic accidents. Here is an introduction to the items checked during the annual vehicle inspection: 1. Exterior Inspection: Primarily checks for any modifications to the vehicle's body, the extent of aftermarket modifications, and ensures all lights are functioning properly. 2. Emissions Test (to obtain the environmental label): Mainly tests the vehicle's exhaust emissions. The owner only needs to wait in the inspection hall. 3. Driving Safety Check: Primarily examines the vehicle's safety performance, typically including speed checks, side-slip tests, chassis inspections, light brightness checks, and full braking system tests. 4. Obtaining the Inspection Certificate: Once the vehicle passes the inspection, the owner can collect the inspection certificate. Vehicle Annual Inspection Procedure: 1. Fill out the form: Locate the annual inspection registration window to submit and review materials. 2. Check for violations: If there are any outstanding fines, they must be paid at the violation inquiry window. 3. Exterior inspection: A technician will inspect the vehicle's exterior, including the engine compartment and VIN (Vehicle Identification Number), and provide a signed inspection approval. 4. Pay the inspection fee: Proceed to the payment window to receive the invoice. 5. Submit materials: All documents are submitted at the registration window, after which the vehicle can proceed to the testing area. 6. Queue for inspection: Follow instructions during the inspection process. Upon completion, a test report will be issued. 7. Finalize the process: Return to the service hall with the test report, submit all required documents, sign where necessary, and hand over the vehicle registration. The clerk will issue the annual inspection sticker and update the inspection date on the registration copy.
