What does 14x2.125 tire mean?
1 Answers
In the 14x2.125 tire, the 14 refers to the tire width of 14 inches, and 2.125 refers to the inner diameter of the tire being 2.125 inches. The 14x2.125 tire is the tire's specification model. The functions of the tire are to transmit driving force, braking force, and steering force to achieve vehicle operation; to support the vehicle load; and to reduce and absorb vibrations and impact forces during driving, avoiding severe vibrations that could damage vehicle components. Precautions for tire use are as follows: Tire wear: Tread wear will cause the tire to lose grip, affect handling, increase the risk of blowouts, and also cause the tire to lose its dirt and water drainage functions. Tire pressure: It is advisable to have a tire pressure gauge to check the tire pressure regularly. Remove debris from treads: Foreign objects in the tire should be removed promptly to prevent "stubborn" stones from getting stuck in the treads. When the tire wears to a certain extent, these objects can puncture the tire body, leading to air leakage or even blowouts. Tire rotation: Rotate tire positions every 10,000 kilometers to evenly distribute tire fatigue, prevent uneven wear, and extend tire life. In addition to the model, tires are also marked with the following common data: Tire carcass cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, and ZG for steel radial cord tires. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings from 4.8 km/h to 300 km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160 km/h; H: 210 km/h; V: 240 km/h; W: 270 km/h; Y: 300 km/h. Rim specification: Indicates the rim specification compatible with the tire for practical use, such as standard rim 5.00F.
