What Causes the Sound of Tires Rubbing Against the Ground When Turning?

[OmarMarie]

Here are the reasons why tires make a rubbing sound against the ground when turning: 1. Drive shaft malfunction: The reason for the rubbing sound when turning is due to wear and tear of the outer CV joint (constant velocity joint) of the drive shaft. The constant velocity joint, commonly known as the CV joint, is divided into the inner and outer CV joints. A steel shaft connects the inner and outer CV joints, collectively referred to as the drive shaft, which serves as the rotating shaft for transmitting power. During steering, power is transmitted at a constant speed. Its malfunction can be identified by methods such as sudden acceleration and making U-turns. 2. Tire deformation issue: Move the tires indoors during rain to prevent water from entering the tire interior. Tires exposed to oil or water are prone to damage or deformation. Therefore, store them in places free from oil and water, and avoid placing tires in locations that could cause damage or deformation.
