What Causes Bulging in New Car Tires?
1 Answers
Bulging in new car tires is rarely due to quality issues; it is mostly caused by improper driving practices. New car tires generally have higher tire pressure, usually above 3 bar, and it is necessary to release air promptly after taking delivery of the vehicle. Failure to do so can easily lead to bulging. During tire usage, frequent friction of the tire sidewall against hard objects, vehicles often being overloaded, or tires being used under non-standard pressure for extended periods can all cause bulging. When encountering visible speed bumps or potholes while driving, it is essential to slow down, especially for tires with a low aspect ratio, as they are more prone to bulging upon impact.
