The side of the tire with the anti-slip strip is the outside. More information about tires is as follows: 1. Introduction: Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery for rolling contact with the ground. Tires are usually installed on metal rims to support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, achieve contact with the road surface, and ensure the vehicle's driving performance. 2. Performance: Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high and low temperatures during operation. Therefore, they must have high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning performance. At the same time, they are also required to have high wear resistance and flex resistance, as well as low rolling resistance and heat generation. Half of the world's rubber consumption is used for tire production, indicating the significant role of tires in rubber usage.

When using Hankook tires, I found that the key to distinguishing the inside and outside lies in the markings on the tire sidewall. Usually, there are English words such as "OUTSIDE" indicating the outer side and "INSIDE" indicating the inner side. If there are no prominent words, look for an arrow symbol, which points to the correct rotation direction for tire installation. I once installed them incorrectly, resulting in uneven tire wear and increased noise. A reminder: Hankook's asymmetric tread tires must be installed with the correct side facing out, otherwise, it will affect grip and water drainage, making the car prone to slipping in the rain. Always check the instructions before installation, don’t be as careless as I was. I also recommend cleaning the tire sidewall first; dust can cover the markings. Last time, I used a soft cloth to wipe them clean for identification. Safety first—if you’re unsure, go to a repair shop and let the experts check it to avoid more trouble when replacing tires later.

This behavior constitutes hit-and-run after a traffic accident. Below is relevant information about hit-and-run after a traffic accident: 1. Hit-and-run after a traffic accident: Hit-and-run refers to a motor vehicle driver who, while being involved in a traffic accident, deliberately flees the scene, making it impossible to determine the civil, criminal, or administrative liabilities arising from the accident, with the purpose of evading or escaping responsibility. 2. Manifestations of hit-and-run after a traffic accident: The perpetrator knowingly flees the scene by driving or abandoning the vehicle; the perpetrator, suspected of driving under the influence or without a license, fails to fulfill the obligation to wait for processing after reporting the incident, abandons the vehicle and leaves the scene, then returns; the perpetrator takes the injured to the hospital but does not report the incident and leaves without reason; the perpetrator takes the injured to the hospital but leaves false names, addresses, or contact information with the injured or their family before leaving; the perpetrator absconds during the investigation; the perpetrator leaves the scene and denies involvement in the accident, but there is evidence to suggest they should have known about the accident.

What is the actual 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the BMW M8?

According to official data, the BMW M8 has a 4.4T displacement and achieves a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.3 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the stronger the force pushing the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. The BMW M8 has a maximum torque of 750 Nm and accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 3.3 seconds. The BMW 8 Series has a torque of 500 Nm and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 5.2 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission serves as the medium for power delivery, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The BMW M8 is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The BMW M8 has a power-to-weight ratio of 318.3 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.3 seconds. The BMW 8 Series has a power-to-weight ratio of 158.29 kg/PS and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 5.2 seconds.

Is Antifreeze Corrosive?

Antifreeze is not corrosive. Antifreeze is a type of coolant containing special additives, primarily used in liquid-cooled engine cooling systems. It offers excellent performance in preventing freezing in winter, boiling in summer, and resisting scale and corrosion throughout the year. Composition of Antifreeze: The main components of antifreeze are: 50% pure water, 40% methanol, and 10% other substances. Types of Antifreeze: Antifreeze is generally categorized into three types: ethanol-water type, glycerol-water type, and ethylene glycol-water type. Can Different Antifreezes Be Mixed? It is necessary to use antifreeze from the same brand. Different brands of antifreeze may have varying production formulas. Mixing them could lead to chemical reactions among the additives, potentially rendering them ineffective. How to Determine If Antifreeze Is Low: Observe the antifreeze warning light on the dashboard. If it lights up, it is likely due to low antifreeze levels, though it could also be because the cylinder temperature is too high. Check the antifreeze reservoir. If the fluid level is below the minimum mark (MIN), do not continue driving; add antifreeze promptly. Check the water level markings on the antifreeze tank. The normal antifreeze level should be between the maximum and minimum marks. To determine if antifreeze is low, check the markings. If the antifreeze level is below the minimum mark, it indicates a shortage of antifreeze.

Where is the gear shift in a Mercedes-Benz?

In Mercedes-Benz vehicles, the gear shift is located behind the right side of the steering wheel, known as a column shifter. Press the brake and move the shifter up and down to select R (Reverse), N (Neutral), and D (Drive) gears. Press the button on the edge inward for P (Park). For non-electronic gear shifts, the operation is similar to conventional ones, with a zigzag shifting path to clearly distinguish gears, though it may not be as comfortable as straight-line shifts. Another type is the electronic gear shift, positioned where the windshield wiper switch is in regular cars. Pulling it upwards selects N and R gears, while pushing it down selects D gear. Pressing the P button engages Park. Mercedes-Benz automatic transmissions with driving mode selection feature buttons like (W, S) or (C, S) (M, C, S) on the control panel, with the following functions: W/C mode: Represents Snow and Comfort driving modes. It starts in 2nd gear, shifts up early, and ensures smooth gear transitions, suitable for normal driving with economical fuel consumption. S mode: Represents Sport mode. It shifts up later, providing a slight impact during gear changes, suitable for drivers who prefer a sporty driving feel and better acceleration performance, though with higher fuel consumption. C mode: Represents Manual mode. For vehicles equipped with paddle shifters on the steering wheel, drivers can manually control gear shifts, ideal for those seeking extreme driving sensations. Fuel consumption varies significantly based on driving demands. For the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, regardless of the "C/S/M" gear setting, the key factor for engaging the 7th gear is vehicle speed.
