What causes regular hissing noise from tires?

[OKhloe]

The reasons for regular hissing noise from tires are: 1. Brake discs mixed with small stones, causing friction noise during driving, or abnormal wear of tire bearings due to lack of lubrication or fatigue wear; 2. The main material of brake pads is heavy metal, which may have metal hard spots that can generate noise during driving; 3. Severe wear of brake pads, causing the metal backing plate of the brake pads to wear, resulting in abnormal noise during operation. Methods for car tire maintenance are: 1. Regularly clean stones from tire treads; 2. Avoid exposing tires to direct sunlight; 3. Frequently check tire pressure, which can be found on the inside of the car's fuel tank cap with normal pressure values, adjust accordingly; 4. Pay attention to suspension maintenance; 5. Regularly check front wheel alignment; 6. Choose road surfaces carefully while driving, avoiding objects that can puncture or scratch tires, and steer clear of chemical spills that may corrode tires.

I just encountered a tire hissing sound when driving, which is really concerning. The most common causes are either too high or too low tire pressure, leading to increased friction and hissing noise while rolling. It's recommended to first check the tire pressure—there's a recommended value label on the door frame, and you can easily measure it with a handheld tire pressure gauge. If the pressure is normal, it might be due to uneven tire tread wear, which can cause noise over time. In this case, you should visit a shop for a wheel alignment or tire replacement. Additionally, a faulty wheel bearing is another common cause. The hissing sound will vary with speed and may be accompanied by slight vibrations. Don’t ignore this and get it checked immediately, as it could lead to serious issues at high speeds. Paying attention to tire condition during regular maintenance can save you a lot of trouble.

A rhythmic hissing sound from the tires is something I've encountered several times, mostly caused by small stones or other foreign objects stuck in the tread. While driving, you can locate which tire is making the noise by listening, then stop and use a small knife or hook to gently remove the object. It could also be due to worn brake pads producing a hissing sound during friction, especially noticeable during light braking. Checking tire grooves and brake pad thickness is quite easy yourself, and it's recommended to inspect them during regular maintenance. For safety, if the abnormal sound persists or there's unusual vibration, visit a professional repair shop immediately—don't let a small issue turn into a major problem.

Tire squealing may imply safety risks, and I get nervous whenever I hear such regular abnormal noises while driving. The biggest hidden danger is wheel bearing damage. The intensifying squealing sound at high speeds may lead to bearing failure or even wheel detachment. Immediately slow down, stop, and check the tire's appearance for abnormal wear or damage, ensuring the tire pressure is appropriate. If any issues are found, repair them immediately—don't risk continuing to drive. Regular maintenance is the key to prevention.
