What Causes the Sizzling Sound from Tires?
1 Answers
Tire sizzling sounds can be caused by stones stuck in the tire treads, nails puncturing the tire, or loose wheel hub nuts leading to abnormal noises. Stones stuck in tire treads or nails puncturing the tire: If stones are stuck in the tire treads, it's relatively easy to solve—simply use a screwdriver or a metal piece to pry the stones out of the tread gaps. However, if the tire is punctured by a sharp object, it can easily lead to a flat tire or air leakage. To protect the tire and ensure driving safety, it's necessary to replace the tire with the spare and then visit a repair shop to check whether the tire can be patched. If it can, proceed with the repair. Abnormal noises caused by loose wheel hub nuts: If the front wheel hub nuts are loose, a slight clicking sound can be heard when lightly braking downhill. Pay close attention to this sound. If the rear wheel nuts are loose, the noise from the wheels will be amplified through the trunk, producing a louder clicking sound, and the noise will emanate from the trunk. In this case, simply use tools from the trunk to tighten the nuts.
