What are the effects of having different tread patterns on coaxial tires?
1 Answers
Having different tread patterns on coaxial tires can affect the vehicle's driving performance, especially in rainy weather. It can also result in different friction coefficients and grip levels between the tires, making the vehicle prone to skidding during emergency braking due to inconsistent braking. If the wear levels of the two tires differ too much, their drainage performance and grip performance will significantly decrease, directly impacting driving safety. According to China's motor vehicle safety technical inspection standards and methods: coaxial tires should be of the same model, specification, and tread pattern; the tire tread and sidewall should not have cracks or cuts exceeding 25mm in length or deep enough to expose the tire cord layer, nor any other defects, abnormal wear, or deformations that affect usage.
