What is Tire Aspect Ratio?

[Lucille]

Tire aspect ratio is a tire specification that refers to the percentage of the tire's cross-section height to its maximum cross-section width. Below are the precautions for tire replacement and the characteristics of low aspect ratio tires: Precautions for tire replacement: The tires equipped on vehicles when they leave the factory are the optimal specifications selected by the manufacturer after repeated testing. If you want to change to tires of different sizes, it must be done under the guidance of professionals and not arbitrarily, as this involves many issues. Even slight negligence can pose a hazard to driving safety. Additionally, low aspect ratio tires tend to be more delicate, requiring extra attention and care during use. Characteristics of low aspect ratio tires: Low aspect ratio, large inner diameter tires have shorter sidewalls and wider treads, resulting in a larger contact area with the road. These tires can withstand greater pressure, respond very sensitively to road conditions, have strong lateral resistance during turns, and enhance the vehicle's handling performance.
