The plastic above the tire is called a fender. The functions of the fender: 1. To prevent mud from splashing onto the car body or people, which could make them look unattractive; 2. To prevent mud from splashing onto the tie rods or ball joints, causing premature rusting; 3. To protect the car body from being scratched by debris kicked up during driving. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on metal rims, designed to roll on the ground in various vehicles or machinery. They support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, ensure contact with the road surface, and maintain the vehicle's driving performance. The functions of car tires: 1. To generate driving force, braking force, and lateral force through interaction with the road surface; 2. To bear the weight of the car; 3. To provide cushioning and shock absorption.
