What brand is db tire?

db tire is a tire model under the YOKOHAMA brand. YOKOHAMA tires were originally called Yokohama tires. Established in 1917, Yokohama Rubber started with rubber polymer chemistry and has extensively absorbed technical experience. It continues to advance development not only in the rubber field but also in metals, lightweight composite materials, and other areas. In addition to developing automotive-related fields led by tires, it is further expanding into industrial products, aviation parts, and sports goods. Design technology to reduce air resistance during driving: YOKOHAMA has developed tire design technology that reduces air resistance during vehicle movement. This technology, as an eco-friendly method to decrease tire rolling resistance, improves the airflow around the tire during driving, thereby achieving fuel-saving environmental effects. When a vehicle moves, irregular airflow forms around the tire. Some of this air flows to the sides of the vehicle, increasing driving resistance. To address this phenomenon, Yokohama Rubber developed a technology in 2010 to inspect the airflow around the tire under simulated driving conditions (normal rolling of the tire during driving) and applied this technology to entire vehicles. Tires are often used under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and high and low temperatures during operation. Therefore, they must have high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning performance, as well as high wear resistance and flex resistance, along with low rolling resistance and heat generation. Directly in contact with the road surface, tires work with the vehicle's suspension to mitigate shocks during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness. They also ensure excellent adhesion between the wheels and the road, improving the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability, while bearing the vehicle's weight. Tire maintenance methods: Increase awareness of tire safety and inspect tires regularly. Periodically correct wheel balance, as unbalanced wheels can cause high-frequency oscillations during high-speed driving, leading to uneven tire wear. Regularly rotate tires to ensure even wear. For uniform wear on the same vehicle, tires should be rotated every 5,000 kilometers. In daily use, pay attention to the following points: Regularly check the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread is worn flat, it loses its drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Small cracks can be potential hazards for blowouts during high-speed driving. Additionally, immediately remove pebbles from the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. After parking, do not turn the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, increasing air pressure. In such cases, stop to let the tires cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool them, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent and hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear due to dragging between the tires and the ground.
