What Does Replacement Tire Mean?
1 Answers
Replacement tires refer to tires other than the original factory-equipped tires. Any tire brand that is not the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) tire is considered a replacement tire. There is no inherent quality difference between replacement tires and original tires; as long as they meet quality standards, they can be used with confidence. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on various vehicles or machinery to roll on the ground. They operate under complex and demanding conditions, enduring various deformations, loads, forces, and extreme temperatures during use. Therefore, tires must possess high load-bearing capacity, traction performance, and cushioning ability, along with high wear resistance, flex resistance, and low rolling resistance with minimal heat generation.
