How Long Do Giti Tires Generally Last?
2 Answers
The lifespan of Giti tires is typically around 3 years or 50,000 kilometers. Beyond this period, the tires will begin to age. The main signs of tire aging include surface hardening and the appearance of cracks. Aged tires lose their elasticity, and continued use can lead to tread deformation, increasing the risk of a blowout. Here are some related details: 1. Tire Wear Indicators: Any brand of tire will have wear indicators at the bottom of the tread grooves. For passenger car tires, the wear indicator height is usually 1.6 millimeters (this is also the legally mandated minimum groove depth), while for heavy-duty tires, it is 2.4 millimeters. When the wear indicator height is less than 1.6 millimeters, the tires should be replaced. 2. Replace Tires Immediately Under These Conditions: The tread pattern is nearly worn out; The tire sidewall has sustained impact damage; The tire surface has pinholes and is leaking air; The tire frequently loses air for unknown reasons; The tire has been repaired multiple times and has excessive damage, even if there are no major visible issues.
I've always been a seasoned driver who loves being behind the wheel. I've been using Giti tires for over a decade and find their lifespan quite reliable—they typically last 4 to 6 years or around 50,000 to 80,000 kilometers, depending on driving habits. If I frequently drive on highways or rough roads, wear accelerates, shortening the lifespan to about 3 years. Monthly tire pressure checks are crucial—too low pressure risks blowouts, while overinflation speeds up wear, so I always maintain the recommended level. For maintenance, I rotate the tires every 5,000 kilometers to ensure even wear. Weather also plays a big role—summer heat softens the rubber, while winter cold makes them prone to cracking, so I park in shaded areas. From a safety perspective, I recommend replacing tires every 4 years rather than waiting until the treads are completely worn. Always watch for unusual vibrations or noises to catch potential issues early.
