What is a nylon tire?

[DelJason]

Nylon tires refer to bias-ply tires, also known as cross-ply tires. Here is some information about this type of tire: 1. Nylon tires are traditional pneumatic tires with a long history of use and wide application. 2. The carcass plies of nylon tires consist of multiple layers of rubber-coated fabric, with adjacent plies having cords at the same angle. 3. Nylon tires are the opposite of radial tires, and radial tires generally offer better quality compared to nylon tires. Additional information: 1. Advantages of nylon tires: The plies are arranged in a crisscross pattern, which enhances the strength of the tread and sidewalls. When properly inflated, they ensure good elasticity, sufficient load-bearing capacity, and meet the requirements for automotive tire use. The high elasticity helps absorb shocks from uneven road surfaces and prevents tread separation from the plies during emergency braking. 2. Disadvantages of nylon tires: The sidewalls of bias-ply tires are relatively stiff, resulting in poor ride comfort. Due to significant movement and friction between plies at high speeds, they are not suitable for high-speed driving and are rarely used in passenger cars.
