For driving on the Sichuan-Tibet line, a four-wheel-drive off-road vehicle is recommended. More information regarding vehicle selection for self-driving tours on the Sichuan-Tibet line is as follows: 1. The Sichuan-Tibet self-driving route is treacherous, with frequent landslides and waterlogged sections. It is best to choose a vehicle with strong power and high horsepower. Off-road vehicles have a high ground clearance, which demonstrates unique advantages when encountering mudslides, landslides, or waterlogged sections. Additionally, off-road vehicles have powerful engines, enabling them to escape dangerous situations promptly. They should also be equipped with a comprehensive shock absorption system to mitigate damage to the vehicle and friction on the chassis caused by uneven road surfaces. Ordinary sedans are prone to clutch damage due to prolonged low-speed driving, and their thin tires are susceptible to blowouts. With lower ground clearance, they are unsafe for driving on the poor road conditions of the Sichuan-Tibet line. 2. For travelers who want to go to Motuo, a four-wheel-drive off-road vehicle is essential. The Motuo Highway is 118 kilometers long, with two checkpoints at k52 and k80, where border permits, ID cards, and driver's licenses are inspected. Two-wheel-drive vehicles or sedans may be turned back, and only four-wheel-drive vehicles are allowed to proceed to Motuo County. 3. On the Sichuan-Tibet line, the following mainstream vehicle models are available for selection: Land Cruiser, Toyota Prado, Changfeng Leopard, BAW Land King, and several commercial vehicles such as Tourneo. These vehicles are not only common on the Sichuan-Tibet self-driving tours but also face no pressure when entering Tibet. The first two models are comfortable off-road vehicles, while the latter two are economical off-road vehicles. Whether in terms of power or configuration, they meet the performance requirements for off-road vehicles entering Tibet, with good power, strong endurance, convenient maintenance, and easily accessible parts.

How about the Angiestar tires?

Angiestar tires are durable, fuel-efficient, and environmentally friendly, offering a comfortable driving experience. They come with a three-year or 60,000-kilometer warranty, and even provide free replacement for bulges caused by human factors within one year, ensuring peace of mind for users. Tires are an essential part of every car owner's daily use. As rubber products, tires will age over time, so they need to be replaced regularly. Under normal circumstances, tires installed on a car can last for four years, so it is recommended to replace them every four years. When purchasing new tires, always check the production date. Normally, the shelf life of unused tires is three years. Avoid buying tires that have been in storage for more than three years. After installing new tires, it is crucial to perform a dynamic balance test on each wheel to prevent abnormal vibrations during high-speed driving.

Will traffic police check a Jeep Wrangler with oversized tires?

Traffic police will check a Jeep Wrangler with oversized tires. Reasonable modifications to a Wrangler are acceptable, but excessive modifications are illegal. If you encounter traffic police with excessively modified vehicles, you will be penalized. Generally, installing oversized tires is not illegal, but it's best not to exceed two specifications beyond the original tires, as this minimally affects driving safety. Without approval from the public security traffic management department, unauthorized modifications to the vehicle's chassis, engine, suspension, transmission system, steering system, tires and rims, lights, body color painting and exterior structure, or any technical data that does not match the data announced by the State Council's motor vehicle product authority, are considered illegal modifications.
