What is the replacement cycle for new car tires?
1 Answers
Under normal circumstances, the original tires can travel 60,000-80,000 kilometers or be used for 3-5 years. If driving for a long time on rugged and sandy roads, tires may need to be replaced before reaching 60,000 kilometers. At this point, due to severe tire wear, the tread friction coefficient decreases significantly, making it prone to slipping during continuous driving, which can lead to loss of vehicle control. Conditions requiring tire replacement: The lifespan of tires is related to many factors, such as vehicle model, load capacity, driving habits, and road conditions. Therefore, tires are equipped with wear indicators to determine their lifespan. This is a more economical and appropriate method to assess tire lifespan. Once the wear reaches or exceeds this indicator, the tire has reached the end of its lifecycle. Traction and friction will significantly decrease, affecting the car's braking and cornering performance. In such cases, the tires must be replaced. Another situation is that bulging tires should be replaced as much as possible. The structural integrity of a tire comes from its inner layers of nylon and steel wire interlaced fabric. When a tire is impacted by external forces, some of these fabric layers can be damaged. Without the restraint of these layers, the rubber tire body can easily bulge under high pressure. Such tires should be replaced as much as possible and can be used as spare tires.
