How many kilometers should tires be replaced?
1 Answers
Under normal usage conditions, tires should be replaced every 3-5 years or after traveling 60,000 to 100,000 kilometers. Additional information: 1. Whether car tires need replacement mainly depends on their wear condition. If the tires are severely worn and the tread patterns are significantly diminished, they should be replaced. Otherwise, braking on slippery roads may become difficult, and rough roads may increase the risk of blowouts. 2. In harsh driving conditions such as frequent traffic jams or aggressive driving, the replacement interval should be shortened based on actual circumstances. Some owners mistakenly believe that tires can be used as long as they are not punctured, but this may prevent proper water drainage, leading to loss of control. It is advisable to replace tires earlier to avoid potential accidents caused by overused tires. 3. Generally, using four tires of the same brand and specification ensures optimal vehicle performance. If the tires differ, there may be impacts on handling and stability. However, front tires usually wear out faster than rear tires, so replacing all four tires at once is often not cost-effective. Typically, two tires on the same axle are replaced together. If you plan to replace all four tires, it is recommended to rotate the front and rear tires when they reach half their lifespan.
