What are the tire grades?

Tire grades include speed grades and load grades. The maintenance methods for tires are: 1. Regularly clean the stones in the tire gaps; 2. Reduce tire exposure to sunlight; 3. Timely check the tire pressure; 4. Pay attention to the maintenance of the suspension; 5. Regularly check the front wheel alignment. The functions of tires are: 1. Support the entire weight of the vehicle and bear the load of the car; 2. Transmit traction and braking torque to ensure the adhesion between the wheels and the road surface; 3. Reduce and absorb the vibration and impact force of the car during driving, preventing severe vibration and early damage to car components; 4. Adapt to the high-speed performance of the vehicle and reduce driving noise, ensuring driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and energy-saving economy.
There are actually many types of tires. As a frequent long-distance driver, the main categories I pay attention to are seasonal classifications: summer tires have large tread patterns and strong grip in hot weather; winter tires have special grooves to prevent slipping on snow; all-season tires are suitable for areas with minimal seasonal changes. There are also classifications by purpose: economy tires are cheap but have a shorter lifespan; comfort tires have low noise levels, making driving quieter; performance tires provide stability at high speeds. Speed ratings are also important, for example, H indicates a maximum speed of 210 km/h, while V is 240 km/h. When choosing tires, consider road conditions and budget, regularly check tire pressure and wear, and replace them in time to avoid the risk of blowouts. This knowledge has helped me save money and hassle when changing tires. Paying more attention to these details can make driving safer for everyone.
