Is it serious if tires run over asphalt?

[AngelaDella]

It is serious. Running over wet asphalt can cause it to stick to the tires. The cleaning methods for tires that have run over asphalt are as follows: 1. Asphalt cleaner: A commonly used method to remove asphalt is to use an asphalt cleaner. First, spray the asphalt cleaner on the tire surface with asphalt, wait for about two minutes, and then wipe it with a wet towel that does not shed fibers. Slowly wipe, and the asphalt will be removed. However, asphalt cleaners are highly corrosive and are not recommended for long-term use. 2. Specialized asphalt remover: You can also use a specialized asphalt remover by spraying it on the tires. After about 15 minutes, the asphalt will soften, and then you can easily remove it with a small scraper or by repeatedly wiping with a cloth. This type of cleaner is effective and relatively inexpensive, but improper use may erode the rubber. It is best to have it handled at a tire shop.

Ran over asphalt with tires? I've been driving trucks for long-distance hauls for over a decade, and running over asphalt roads is completely normal on a daily basis. Generally speaking, it has no impact at all. Tires are designed for such paved surfaces, and driving over them is stable and doesn't harm the tires. You might just pick up some asphalt dust, making them look dirty over time, but it won't cause blowouts or severe wear issues. It's recommended to clean your tires regularly, using mild detergent to scrub off any stains. The key is to pay attention to the driving environment, such as newly laid asphalt during high summer temperatures, where tires might sink in slightly—driving slower is safer. Don't worry too much; regularly checking tire pressure and tread depth is the way to prevent problems before they arise.

I don't think driving on asphalt is a big deal at all. I often go camping in the suburbs on weekends, and my wheels roll over all kinds of roads, including smooth asphalt roads, and the car still drives just fine. At most, the tire surface gets dirty, and you can just rinse it off with water. Stay relaxed, but be careful not to drive too fast over soft areas to avoid picking up more debris on the tires. In the long run, regular maintenance like checking tire pressure once a month can prevent small issues from turning into big problems. Remember, cars are meant to be driven, so don't let these minor details spoil the joy of driving.

Driving over asphalt is generally fine. I commute by car every day, and it's very common for tires to run over asphalt. The car drives smoothly and normally without harming the tires. At most, the tires might pick up some dust, which can be washed off with water when you get home. Don't overthink the safety risks—the key is not to slack off when it's time to wash the car.
