Does wheel hub wear affect safety?
1 Answers
The impact of wheel hub wear on safety is as follows: 1. If the wheel hub has surface scratches: there is no safety issue. 2. If there are edge scratches and material loss: it will cause the wheel hub and tire to not fit tightly, leading to slow tire air leakage and affecting safety. 3. If the wheel hub only has surface scratches from scraping: the paint falls off, no replacement is needed, and even if the scratched area is relatively large, it does not affect normal use, so replacement is still unnecessary. 4. If a piece of the wheel hub is scraped off: as long as it's not the edge, there's no need to worry, and this situation only requires repair. However, if a piece of the edge is worn off, the wheel hub needs to be replaced because it will affect the tightness of the tire, and in extreme cases, the tire may blow out, posing a safety hazard.
