How Often Should the Lantra Tires Be Replaced?
1 Answers
Under normal driving conditions, Lantra tires should be replaced when they reach the lower limit of usage (60,000 kilometers/3 years). In fact, the lifespan of tires is closely related to many factors, such as climate, road conditions, driving habits, installation, and maintenance. The following situations also warrant tire replacement: 1. Bulging or deformation: Bulging or deformation of tires is extremely dangerous. If such issues are detected, it is advisable to visit a professional repair shop immediately for inspection and handling. In most cases, tire replacement is recommended. Such conditions indicate that the internal metal coils of the tire have been deformed or broken, and continuing to drive could lead to a blowout. 2. Severe wear: Each tire tread groove has a wear limit indicator, which is approximately 2mm thick. It is recommended to replace the tires when the tread thickness wears to within 4mm of the limit indicator, or about 6mm from the deepest part of the groove. 3. Multiple patches: One or two patches do not affect tire usage, but after more than three patches, it is advisable to replace the tire for safety reasons. When driving at high speeds, the temperature inside the tire rises, and tires with excessive damage, even if well-patched, still increase the risk of danger. 4. Punctures in the sidewall: Punctures in the sidewall are indeed more dangerous than those in the tread. If the damage is located below the tire identifier near the rim edge, the tire must be replaced because the steel wires in this area are very weak and almost impossible to repair.
