Is the probability of tubeless tires bursting high?
2 Answers
Bursting can occur, but it is rare. Generally, tire bursts are mostly caused by tire issues or when the tire runs over a hard object while driving. Therefore, regular tire inspections are essential. Below is an introduction to related aspects of car tires: Shock absorption: Car tires are one of the important components of a vehicle, directly in contact with the road surface, working together with the car suspension to mitigate the impact experienced during driving. Comfort: Ensuring the car has good ride comfort and smooth driving, maintaining excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability, while bearing the weight of the car.
I've been driving since I was young, using tubeless tires, and found that the chance of a flat is quite low, mainly because of their good design. Without an inner tube, when encountering sharp objects like nails, air leaks slowly, allowing you to keep going for a while without an immediate blowout. I've had a few leaks, all while driving in the city, and managed to slowly drive to a repair shop to get it fixed. However, the risk increases if the tire pressure is insufficient or if you frequently drive on rough roads, so I've made it a habit to check the tire pressure every time I refuel. Regular tire maintenance is also crucial. I recommend a thorough check of tread wear every two to three months, which can basically reduce the chance of a flat to a very low level.
