What is the direction for changing tires?
1 Answers
Generally, when removing a tire, you should turn it counterclockwise, and when installing a tire, turn it clockwise. Precautions: When removing a tire, loosen the screws in a diagonal pattern to avoid concentrating stress on one area of the tire, making it easier and reducing wear on the screws. Similarly, when installing a tire, pre-tighten the screws first and then tighten them in a diagonal sequence. Same material: The material mainly refers to the carcass ply material. For example, all-steel radial tires and fiber radial tires have significant differences in carcass thickness, ply strength, and heat dissipation performance. Mixing them together can affect performance. Different tire tread patterns not only result in varying wear but also affect the adhesion to the ground. Inconsistent tread patterns on the left and right tires can impact the vehicle's smoothness and may cause one-sided or fishtailing phenomena during emergency braking.
