How Many Kilometers Can Original Tires Run?
2 Answers
Original tires can run for 80,000 kilometers. The following points should be noted regarding tire replacement: 1. Replacement time: It is recommended to replace tires every four years, even if the mileage is relatively low during these four years. Tires are rubber products, and rubber products will age over time. 2. Tire selection: When purchasing tires, be sure to check the specifications and model, as well as the production date, speed rating, and load index. Generally, the sidewalls of tires for family cars or SUVs are marked with 91V. After reinstalling tires, it is essential to perform dynamic balancing to prevent abnormal vibrations during high-speed driving.
The lifespan of original tires varies by vehicle, typically lasting between 40,000 to 80,000 kilometers. Having used several new cars, I found their original tires could last up to 60,000 kilometers under normal driving conditions, provided there's smooth acceleration, avoidance of sudden braking, and maintenance of good road conditions. However, frequent highway driving or sharp turns can accelerate wear, potentially reducing lifespan to around 50,000 kilometers. I recommend checking tire pressure and tread depth every 5,000 kilometers – consider replacement if tread depth falls below 1.6mm. Regular tire rotation, such as every 10,000 kilometers, ensures even wear. Climate also impacts longevity – summer heat or winter snow conditions increase wear rates. From a safety perspective, don't risk driving tires to their absolute limit to save money, as this increases hydroplaning risks in rain and accident probabilities.
