Extra is a tire brand under Cheng Shin Tire, also known as Maxxis Tire. More relevant information is as follows: 1. Functions of tires and vehicle suspension systems: Tires and the vehicle's suspension system work together to mitigate the impact forces experienced during driving, providing excellent ride comfort and smooth driving performance while ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface. Tires bear the weight of the vehicle, making them one of the most important components of a car. 2. Characteristics of automotive tires: With the continuous development of the automotive industry, tire technology is also constantly improving. Automotive tire treads feature patterns designed to enhance performance, along with increased cross-sectional width and lower internal pressure to achieve better cushioning performance. Automotive tires can be structurally classified into radial tires and bias-ply tires.

Seeing you ask about what brand 'extra' tires are, I guess you might have a slight misunderstanding. This 'extra' usually doesn't refer to a specific brand, but is an abbreviation for 'extra load', meaning high-load tires specifically designed to carry heavier weights, such as those used on SUVs, pickups, or fully loaded family cars. When I worked at an auto repair shop, I saw many car owners make the mistake of thinking it was a brand name. Actually, many major tire brands offer this extra load model, like Michelin, Goodyear, and Bridgestone, with an XL mark on the tire sidewall. When choosing tires, you should consider your vehicle's load requirements to avoid overloading, which can easily lead to blowouts. Safe driving starts with the basics, and I recommend regularly checking tire pressure and wear, changing tires twice a year for safety, and never opting for cheap, no-name products.

As an avid car forum enthusiast, I've done quite a bit of research on tires. Extra tires? I'm pretty sure there's no mainstream brand by that name, it's more likely a misunderstanding of 'extra load'. Extra load refers to high-load capacity tires, commonly used for heavy-duty vehicles or modified cars, which can improve stability and durability. Brands like Yokohama's Geolandar series offer such options. When choosing tires, factors like vehicle weight and road conditions must be considered - for example, prioritizing extra load models for highway driving or off-road use. I also recommend using a tire pressure monitoring app to check real-time data, which is both convenient and safe. Replace aging tires promptly - don't delay, as tires older than three years may pose risks. In short, sticking with major brands is always the right choice.

When picking up family members, I always worry about tire issues. I've consulted experts about 'extra' tires. It's not an independent brand, but most likely a misreading of 'extra load,' meaning high-load capacity tires suitable for heavy-duty vehicles to prevent blowouts. Brands like Hankook or Pirelli offer these. Especially for family SUVs, it's crucial to choose the right tires—avoid no-name brands to prevent accidents. Before each drive, I make it a habit to check tire pressure and wear; overloading or insufficient pressure is dangerous. Safety first.

When I first started maintaining my own car, I was also confused about the term 'extra' tires. Actually, 'extra load' refers to high-load capacity tires designed to carry more weight on heavy vehicles. Tire brands like Continental or Dunlop often have these. When choosing tires, pay attention to the size and date to avoid buying old ones. The heavier the vehicle, the more important it is to select tires marked with XL. Learning some basic knowledge is very practical in daily life.

What to Do When Lug Nuts Won't Come Off?

You can pour a lubricating solvent like diesel fuel onto the lug nuts. Appropriately using your foot strength can increase the tightness of the nut, but avoid kicking blindly as it may directly damage the nut or bolt. Use tools like a hammer to strike the back of the tire wrench, making the lug nut and tool fit tighter, thereby helping to remove the lug nut.

What should I do if I drove a distance without fully releasing the handbrake?

This can significantly impact the handbrake, causing it to become increasingly loose. For vehicles with alarm systems, it's better as there will be a handbrake warning light to indicate that the handbrake needs to be tightened. When driving, make sure to fully release the handbrake all the way down.
