Damaged shock absorber bushings have the following effects: 1. Comfort: When the shock absorber bushings are damaged, ride comfort deteriorates, with particularly noticeable noises when going over bumps and speed bumps, indicating shock absorber issues. 2. Increased tire wear: In severe cases, a roaring sound can be heard, and the steering becomes misaligned, meaning the vehicle doesn't drive straight even when the steering wheel is held straight. 3. Lifespan: Turning the steering wheel while stationary may produce squeaking sounds, and severe damage can affect the lifespan of the shock absorber. 4. Function: The shock absorber bushing's primary function is to cushion the impact between the suspension springs and the vehicle body. When driving on uneven surfaces, each top bushing bears more than a quarter of the vehicle's weight in impact.

What are the tire specifications for the 10th-generation Civic?

The 10th-generation Civic has two tire specifications. The Civic 2022 180TURBO model is equipped with 215/55R16 tires, while the Civic 2022 240TURBO model uses 215/50R17 tires. In the 215/55R16 specification, the first number 215 indicates the tire width is 215mm. The 55 represents the aspect ratio of 55%, meaning the sidewall height is 55% of the tire width. The 16 denotes a 16-inch rim diameter, and the letter "R" stands for radial tire. Similarly, in the 215/50R17 specification, 215 means the tire width is 215mm, 50 indicates a 50% aspect ratio, 17 shows a 17-inch rim diameter, and "R" again signifies a radial tire. The 10th-generation Civic uses Yokohama tires with ADVAN-DB-decibel tread pattern, and comes with a non-full-size spare tire. If you need to change tires yourself, follow these steps: 1. Retrieve the spare tire and jack. Position the jack under the vehicle frame near the tire to be changed, ensuring it contacts the metal part of the frame. 2. Raise the jack until it supports the car. The jack should be positioned vertically under the vehicle. 3. Remove the hubcap and loosen the nuts counterclockwise. Don't remove them completely initially - just enough to reduce resistance. Keeping the tire on the ground while first loosening ensures you're turning the nuts, not the tire. 4. Continue turning counterclockwise until nuts are fully loose. Repeat for all lug nuts and remove them completely. 5. Place the new tire on the hub, carefully aligning the wheel rim with the bolts. Install the lug nuts and hand-tighten until all nuts are snug. The tire change is now complete. Besides size specifications, tires also carry these common markings: - Carcass ply material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin letters like M (cotton), R (rayon), N (nylon), G (steel), ZG (steel radial). - Speed rating: Shows maximum speed capacity under specified conditions. Letters A-Z represent ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common ratings include Q (160km/h), H (210km/h), V (240km/h), W (270km/h), and Y (300km/h). - Rim size: Indicates compatible rim specifications, such as "Standard rim 5.00F".
