What does the 'H' on car tires represent?
1 Answers
Car tire 'H' refers to the speed rating of the tire, which indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on metal rims, designed to be fitted on various vehicles or machinery. They support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, maintain contact with the road surface, and ensure driving performance. The steps to replace a car tire are: 1. Park the car, turn off the engine, and apply the handbrake; 2. Place heavy objects in front of and behind the wheel to prevent sliding, and set up a triangular warning sign behind the vehicle; 3. Use a wrench to loosen the lug nuts of the tire to be replaced in a diagonal sequence; 4. Position the jack on the side of the tire to be replaced and lift the vehicle to a certain height; 5. Remove the lug nuts and take off the tire; 6. Install the spare or new tire and tighten the lug nuts in a diagonal sequence; 7. Lower the vehicle by releasing the jack and ensure that all lug nuts are securely tightened.
