How Much Does a Used Tire Weigh?
1 Answers
Generally, a used tire weighs around 10 kilograms. Tire Weight Chart: The tire weight chart can be found on the sidewall of the tire. Each tire has parameter values printed on it, including tire size, maximum driving speed, and weight rating. Typically, the front part shows the tire size specification, while the back part indicates the load index and speed rating. The numbers represent the load index, and the letters represent the speed rating. The tire load index ranges from 71 to 100, each corresponding to a different carrying capacity. The specific load rating needs to be determined based on the numbers on the tire, and the speed rating and load index should be interpreted by referring to the tire speed rating chart and load index chart. Methods for Disposing of Used Tires: Used tires can be given to tire repair technicians or tire collectors. They can also be retreaded. Severely worn used tires are usually sold to processing plants for shredding or oil refining.
