What does rotation mean on tires?
1 Answers
Rotation means rolling in Chinese, and on tires it indicates the rolling direction. The presence of this English marking on the side of the tire indicates that it is a unidirectional tire. The tread pattern of such tires has a distinct directionality and is fixed, meaning the tire can only roll in the specified direction. Impact of installing unidirectional tires incorrectly: Due to the directional and fixed nature of the tread pattern on unidirectional tires, incorrect installation will not only accelerate tread wear and reduce the tire's lifespan but also affect the tire's performance. Installation precautions: Generally, unidirectional tires will have corresponding arrow markings. During installation, simply ensure the arrow points in the same direction as the vehicle's movement. It's important to note that this type of tire cannot be swapped arbitrarily and can only be rotated on the same side.
