Car tire pressure normally ranges between 230-250kpa. Cold tires and hot tires have different pressures, with hot tires being about 20kpa higher than cold tires. Standard tires have a pressure of 240kpa-250kpa, while reinforced tires have a pressure of 280kpa-290kpa. Additional information: Regularly checking tire pressure ensures safety: 1. Before driving, inspect the tire condition. Radial tires—commonly known as low-pressure tires—are normal as long as the aspect ratio is not too low; if they feel very elastic when pressed with your foot and not too soft, they are fine. 2. High-pressure tires: These refer to bias-ply tires with inner tubes. Viewed from the front, the shoulder area should not protrude, commonly referred to as "not bulging." Viewed from the side, the contact area with the ground should be similar to normal. 3. While driving, pay attention to the sound of friction between the tires and the ground, the cushioning force when driving over uneven roads, and whether the acceleration feels different from usual when pressing the gas pedal.

What are the dimensions of the Haval H9 body?

The length, width, and height dimensions of the Haval H9 are 4843mm/1926mm/1900mm and 5077mm/1926mm/1900mm, which are official data. The length of the Haval H9 refers to the distance between two vertical lines perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost protruding parts at the front and rear of the vehicle; the width refers to the distance between two planes parallel to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane and touching the outermost rigid fixed protruding parts on both sides of the vehicle; the height refers to the distance between the highest point of the vehicle and the vehicle's supporting plane. The turbocharged engine of the Haval H9 has a maximum power of 165kW and a maximum torque of 385Nm. This engine has a maximum horsepower of 224 and a maximum torque speed range of 1800 to 3600 rpm. It features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head. The engine is paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The state has relevant regulations regarding vehicle dimensions. According to the national standard "GB1589-89," the total width of a vehicle does not include side mirrors. The limitation on vehicle width is to provide sufficient lateral clearance for overtaking between adjacent lanes. In other words, the significance of vehicle width data in the national standard is to ensure enough space during overtaking, preventing accidents due to excessive width or situations where road markings are narrower than the vehicle's width. Additionally, the state stipulates that the total width of a vehicle must not exceed 2.5m to meet the usage requirements of public roads.

How to Modify Car Audio?

Determine your preferred music style. When modifying car audio, it's essential to consider your actual situation to meet your needs without causing financial strain. Moreover, choosing the right car audio modification shop is crucial, as the saying goes, "30% equipment, 70% skill"—different technicians can produce different audio effects. Car Audio Considerations: 1. Avoid Being Penny-Wise and Pound-Foolish: Many car owners admit they want to spend less when modifying audio. Consequently, they often choose shops based on price alone, forgetting the principle of "you get what you pay for," leading to dissatisfaction with the final results. 2. Misjudging the Professionalism of the Selected Shop: The primary concern in modification is the electrical circuit. Always go to a car audio modification shop with professional experience for any modifications or repairs. 3. Reserved Space for Audio: Many car owners are confused about reserved space. In reality, audio modification should follow a step-by-step approach. Generally, start by replacing speakers, upgrading amplifiers, adding bass-effect speakers, and then replacing the head unit. Random modifications without considering reserved space can affect audio quality, so it's best to leave room for future upgrades. 4. Overlooking the Amplifier Capacity of the Audio Head Unit: Many enthusiasts of heavy bass effects focus heavily on the head unit's amplifier. While the sound quality might seem good during debugging, issues like unstable battery voltage and degraded sound quality may arise during use. High-power amplifiers can easily burn out circuits, leading to the common issue of spontaneous combustion in audio modifications.

What does nitrogen mean for cars?

Generally speaking, nitrogen is used in car tires because it is an inert gas. Improving tire stability and comfort: Nitrogen is almost an inert diatomic gas, chemically very inactive. Its gas molecules are larger than oxygen molecules, making it less prone to thermal expansion and contraction, with smaller deformation amplitudes. It permeates through the tire walls about 30-40% slower than air, helping to maintain stable tire pressure, improve driving stability, and ensure driving comfort. Nitrogen also has low audio conductivity, effectively reducing tire noise and enhancing driving quietness. Preventing tire blowouts and under-inflation running: Compared to ordinary high-pressure air, high-purity nitrogen is oxygen-free and almost devoid of water and oil, with a low thermal expansion coefficient and low thermal conductivity, leading to slower temperature rise. This significantly reduces the speed of heat accumulation in tires, greatly lowering the probability of blowouts. Extending tire lifespan: Using nitrogen can significantly reduce the likelihood of irregular tire wear, thereby extending tire life. Nitrogen separation devices can maximally remove oxygen, sulfur, oil, water, and other impurities from the air, effectively reducing the oxidation level of the tire's inner liner and the corrosion of rubber, further prolonging tire life. Notes on nitrogen filling: Before filling with nitrogen, it's necessary to vacuum out the original air from the tire, though it's usually impossible to achieve a 100% vacuum, leaving a minimal amount of oxygen residue (1-2%). Additionally, some vehicles (such as trucks, vans, etc., and larger vehicles) require higher pressure for tire inflation, and the oxygen content in these tires needs to be reduced to about 2-3% to achieve a balance between internal and external partial pressures. Considering these practical situations, it's concluded that the nitrogen purity required for tire filling should be 95-98%.
