What is the maximum load capacity of a 700r16 tire?
1 Answers
Different vehicle models require different tires, and trucks with varying load capacities also need different tires. The maximum load capacity of a single 700r16 tire is approximately one ton, so four tires can handle a load of around 4 tons, with the absolute maximum capacity being about 5 tons. Attempting to carry 8 tons is extremely dangerous. Below are some precautions to consider when purchasing and using tires: 1. Always check the manufacturing date when buying tires: Avoid purchasing tires with very old manufacturing dates. Tires are rubber products and will age even if unused. 2. Regularly inspect tire pressure and the tire surface for damage during daily use: The sidewalls of tires are relatively fragile, and if they are cut or punctured, they cannot be repaired. It is recommended that car owners replace their tires every four years, even if the mileage driven during that period is low.
