Winter tires need to be replaced after driving 50,000 to 60,000 kilometers, and the specific situation should be judged according to the degree of tire damage. The tread material of winter tires is softer, and the silica-mixed rubber compound can contact the smooth ice surface more closely, generating greater friction than all-season tires, improving the vehicle's handling and safety on smooth ice surfaces. Winter tires are specifically designed for winter conditions, such as snowy and icy climates and areas with lower temperatures. Their tread patterns usually use cross-Z-shaped siping technology, which can improve braking performance on snow and ice, shorten braking distances, and provide ideal traction.

What to Do When the Trunk of a Tiida Won't Open?

If occasional malfunctions and other common issues occur, simply use the car key to open it. If you frequently use the key to open the trunk lid, it might be an issue with the linkage rod.
