Many small cracks on the tire sidewall?
1 Answers
Tire sidewall cracks indicate natural aging of the tire, resulting in reduced strength and performance. The sidewall is the weakest part of the tire. High-speed or long-distance driving increases tire temperature, leading to higher tire pressure. When this exceeds the sidewall's load limit, it may cause a blowout. Methods to extend tire lifespan include: 1. Park in shaded areas to prevent direct sunlight exposure. 2. Avoid contact with corrosive substances like oil or chemicals that may stain the tire. 3. Use tire glaze or wax products appropriately to slow aging. 4. Never overload as this causes excessive sidewall compression. 5. For tires older than 3 years, regularly inspect their condition.
