1 Answers
Tires with a diameter of 1200mm are generally of the specification 12.00R20–18, typically installed on heavy-duty trucks with a front-four rear-four configuration. The average weight of a single tire is approximately 135 jin (Chinese pounds). The exact weight may vary depending on the brand. Tire specifications and dimensions are represented by a series of codes. Taking the tire size 195/55R15 as an example: 195 indicates the section width, which is the area of the tire that can contact the ground, measured in millimeters. 55 represents the aspect ratio of the tire, which is the ratio of the tire's section height to its section width. R stands for the construction type, with R being the abbreviation for radial tires. 15 denotes the inner diameter of the tire, also known as the rim diameter, usually measured in inches. Here is some additional information about tires: Tires also feature speed rating letters, indicating the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters from A to Z represent certified speed ratings ranging from 4.8 km/h to 300 km/h. The functions of tires include: Transmitting driving force, braking force, and steering force to enable vehicle operation; supporting vehicle loads; mitigating and absorbing vibrations and impact forces during driving to prevent severe vibrations from damaging vehicle components.
