Is it necessary to replace a pair of tires when one is blown out?

Tire blowout requires replacing a pair. If only one tire is replaced, the new tire must have a tread groove depth similar to the other tire on the same axle; otherwise, it may cause issues such as vehicle deviation. Here are some relevant details: 1. Tires are one of the most critical components of a vehicle, designed to accommodate high-speed performance, reduce driving noise, and ensure safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel efficiency. 2. Factors like excessive tire pressure and aging can easily lead to blowouts. The inflation pressure must comply with national standards specified for different types and specifications of tires. Regularly check tire pressure, as both overinflation and underinflation can cause irregular wear, tread groove cracking, cord breakage, ply separation, and tire bursts. For sustained high-speed driving, it's advisable to increase the pressure by 5%-10% above the standard. Additionally, tire pressure rises due to temperature increases after driving, and deflating at this time is not recommended. The typical lifespan of a tire is about 2-3 years or 60,000-100,000 kilometers; once these conditions are met, replacement is necessary.
