Methods to prevent car tire blowouts are: 1. Regularly clean stones from tire treads; 2. Reduce tire exposure to direct sunlight; 3. Frequently check tire pressure; 4. Pay attention to suspension maintenance; 5. Regularly inspect front wheel alignment; 6. Be mindful of driving habits, choose road surfaces carefully while driving, avoid objects that can puncture or scratch tires, and steer clear of chemical spills that may corrode tires. The functions of tires are: 1. Support the entire weight of the vehicle and bear the car's load; 2. Transmit traction and braking torque, ensuring adhesion between wheels and the road; 3. Reduce and absorb vibrations and impact forces during driving, preventing severe vibrations and premature damage to car components; 4. Adapt to high-speed performance requirements while reducing driving noise, ensuring safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel efficiency.

I've been driving for over a decade and have summarized several effective ways to prevent tire blowouts. First is checking tire pressure - I use a tire pressure gauge monthly to ensure cold tire pressure stays within standard range; avoid overinflation or underinflation as this prevents overheating bursts. Second is avoiding overloading - I always check the vehicle's weight limit when loading cargo, as excessive weight overburdens tires. When driving, I avoid potholes and sharp rocks, and slow down over speed bumps to reduce impact. I regularly inspect tire wear and replace them when tread depth falls below 3mm; generally tires need replacement every 5 years. I also pay attention to seasonal changes - avoiding prolonged high-temperature driving in summer and parking in shaded areas. After developing these habits, I've never experienced a tire blowout - it's both safe and worry-free.

In my car repair experience, key points for run-flat tires include regular inspection and prevention. Tire pressure is crucial - use a tire pressure gauge to check cold tire pressure weekly, maintaining the manufacturer's recommended value. Don't ignore sidewall scratches or bubbles, as they're potential risk points. Perform tire balancing and rotation every 5,000 km to ensure even wear. Overloading is a major issue - strictly adhering to load capacity can reduce pressure buildup. Installing a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) is an efficient tool that provides real-time alerts for abnormalities; if not equipped, it's recommended to have one installed at a repair shop. Also avoid sudden braking and sharp turns, which increase tire wear. When tires show aging cracks, immediate replacement eliminates hazards. Proper tire maintenance ensures both convenience and safety.

From a safety perspective, comprehensive prevention is essential for run-flat tires. Tire pressure management is the most fundamental; check monthly to ensure proper inflation and avoid deviations that could lead to overheating and blowouts. Monitor tire wear diligently—replace tires immediately if treads are shallow or sidewalls show cracks. Driving habits also matter: avoid obstacles, minimize high-speed driving, and control speed especially on hot days. Using a TPMS monitoring system for early warnings is recommended. Avoid overloading, as it multiplies pressure. Regular tire rotation and balancing extend service life. These measures significantly reduce accident risks, with safe travel being the top priority.

How to Know Your Car's Location?

First, if the vehicle itself comes with GPS positioning functionality, you can check the car's location via a mobile app. If the vehicle does not have built-in GPS positioning, you can only locate the car by installing a GPS device yourself. Installing a GPS tracker on the car automatically records and allows you to query historical activity routes at any time.

Can a 2021 car pass the annual inspection after modifying the front grille?

If a 2021 car's front grille is replaced with a Chinese-style grille, and the owner goes to the vehicle management office in advance to file the modification and updates the photo on the driving license, the car can pass the annual inspection. However, if the owner fails to file the modification in advance and does not update the photo on the driving license, the annual inspection will not be passed. Relevant regulations for modification procedures: Since September 1, 2019, modifying the front grille of a car is considered a legal modification. According to the latest "Motor Vehicle Inspection Work Regulations," during the registration and annual inspection, the actual appearance of the vehicle should match the photo, except for modifications to the front grille. If the vehicle's appearance does not match the photo on the driving license and the modification is done without authorization, it is illegal. Traffic police may impound the vehicle and order the owner to revert the changes. Article 16 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China" stipulates that no unit or individual may assemble a motor vehicle or alter the structure, construction, or characteristics of a registered motor vehicle without authorization. Regulations that do not require modification procedures: Article 16 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" states that under the following circumstances, the owner of the motor vehicle does not need to apply for modification registration, provided that the safety and identification of the license plate are not affected: small and micro passenger cars equipped with front and rear anti-collision devices; freight motor vehicles equipped with windshields, water tanks, toolboxes, spare tire racks, etc.; and increased interior decoration of the motor vehicle. In other words, except for the above cases, any modification to a car requires filing with the vehicle management office.
