Optimum is a tire brand under the Hankook Tire umbrella, known globally as a premium tire manufacturer. Currently available in three models: one prioritizing fuel economy, another emphasizing quiet comfort, and a third focused on handling safety. These are original equipment tires for many vehicle models on the market. The Optimo series is Hankook's highest market-share tire line, renowned for its comfort, cost-effectiveness, balanced handling and energy efficiency. The main Optimo series models in the market are K415, H426, and K715. Tires are crucial automotive components that directly impact driving stability and safety. As the only part of a vehicle that contacts the road surface, tires are rubber products. Normally, tires should be replaced every four years of use, so we recommend changing them every four years. When purchasing new tires, always check the production date carefully as tires have expiration dates. The typical lifespan of automotive tires is 3-5 years or 50,000-80,000 kilometers. Since tires are primarily made of rubber, prolonged exposure to sunlight causes aging. Extended outdoor parking accelerates tire aging and reduces strength, with such tires generally lasting no more than three years.

Is Wheel Balancing Unnecessary for Rear Wheels?

Rear wheels do require wheel balancing. If balancing is needed, it is advisable to perform it on all four wheels simultaneously. After tire replacement, it is essential to redo the wheel balancing to prevent abnormal vibrations during high-speed driving. Generally, wheel balancing refers to the equilibrium between wheels when the vehicle is in motion, commonly achieved by adding balancing weights. Due to manufacturing imperfections, the mass distribution across the wheel assembly cannot be perfectly uniform. When the wheels rotate at high speeds, this can lead to dynamic imbalance, causing wheel vibrations and steering wheel shaking during driving. To prevent or correct this condition, weights are added to the wheels under dynamic conditions to balance the edges, which is the essence of wheel balancing.

Can a Dash Cam Record When the Car is Off?

No, a dash cam cannot record when the car is off. Here is some relevant information about dash cams: 1. Classification: If the dash cam is equipped with only a front-facing camera, it can only capture the approximately 100° field of view in front of the car. However, if the dash cam has dual cameras, both the front and rear can be recorded. During installation, note that there are two wiring connectors—the rear one should be installed at the position of the license plate light, and the wiring can be routed along the car's rubber trim. 2. Function: A dash cam is a device that records images, sounds, and other relevant information during vehicle operation. After installation, it can record the entire driving process, including video images and audio, which can serve as evidence in traffic accidents.

Why does the Ford Kuga's battery run out of power?

Here are the reasons why the Ford Kuga's battery may run out of power: 1. The car has been parked for a long time, causing the battery to discharge: Even when the car is not in use, the battery naturally discharges due to its self-discharge characteristics. 2. The battery has reached the end of its lifespan: Most private cars today use maintenance-free batteries. Clean the battery's inspection eye and observe the color inside. Green indicates the battery is normal; black indicates low voltage and insufficient charge, which can be resolved by charging; white indicates the battery has reached the end of its lifespan. 3. Insufficient battery electrolyte or leakage: During normal use, the battery's electrolyte naturally evaporates and depletes. Therefore, regular maintenance should include checking the electrolyte level, which should be between the maximum and minimum marks. Insufficient electrolyte naturally leads to inadequate battery charge.
