What is the service life and mileage of tires?
1 Answers
Tires generally have a service life of 2-3 years or a mileage of 60,000-100,000 kilometers. Below is relevant information: 1. Service life: Different brands of tires have varying lifespans. The general principle for determining tire service life is: The normal usage period is about 5 years, which is determined by the tire's quality. After this period, the tire material ages, cracks, and its load-bearing capacity decreases, increasing the risk of blowouts. Within the normal usage period, tires must be replaced once they wear down to the raised markers in the tread grooves; otherwise, driving safety is compromised. 2. Tire aging: After tires age, hidden dangers can increase fuel consumption under normal driving conditions. Additionally, due to reduced traction and adhesion of the tire surface, braking distance increases. If not replaced promptly, driving safety risks will significantly increase. From a safety perspective, timely replacement is necessary.
