Tire Shelf Life?
1 Answers
Tire shelf life is 3 to 5 years. Types of tires include: The international standard tire code represents the section width in millimeters and the aspect ratio as a percentage. This is followed by: tire type code, rim diameter (in inches), load index (permissible load capacity code), and permissible speed rating. The difference between 94V and 94W lies in their permissible speed ratings (V vs W). Main functions of tires: Support the vehicle's total weight and bear the car's load; transmit traction and braking torque to ensure wheel-road adhesion; cushion and absorb vibrations and impacts during driving to prevent excessive vibration and premature damage to auto components; adapt to high-speed performance while reducing road noise; ensure driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.
