Passenger car tires should have a minimum tread depth of 1.6 millimeters on the crown. Car tires are one of the important components of a vehicle, directly in contact with the road surface, working together with the car suspension to cushion the impact during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smooth driving; ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface; improving the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability. Additional information: The following are tire classifications: 1. Structural classification: Can be divided into radial tires and bias tires. 2. Tread pattern classification: Can be divided into rib pattern tires, lateral pattern tires, mixed pattern tires, and off-road pattern tires.

What should I pay attention to when buying a used motorcycle?

Buying a used motorcycle requires attention to the vehicle's age. Pay attention to the appearance: Some used motorcycles have been involved in accidents. To increase the value of these used motorcycles, dealers may refurbish them, repaint the vehicle to make it look newer. Therefore, when purchasing, carefully inspect the appearance, check all corners and parts of the vehicle for signs of repainting, and look for wear on the tires, headlights, and bumper. Pay attention to the chassis and frame: After a vehicle is involved in an accident, even if the exterior is well repaired, the frame and chassis are difficult to restore. If you notice any deformation or bending, be cautious as this vehicle may be an accident-damaged one.

Do You Need to Pre-order a Car When Buying One?

Whether you need to pre-order a car when buying one depends on your personal requirements. Brake pad classifications: Asbestos brake pads (mostly obsolete), semi-metallic brake pads, low-metallic brake pads, NAO formula brake pads, ceramic brake pads, NAO ceramic brake pads. Ceramic brake pads vs. traditional brake pads: In traditional brake pads, metal is the primary material that generates friction, providing strong braking force but with higher wear and a tendency to produce noise. After installing ceramic brake pads, no abnormal squealing (i.e., scraping sounds) will occur during normal driving. Since ceramic brake pads do not contain metal components, they avoid the metal-on-metal squealing that occurs between traditional metallic brake pads and their counterparts (i.e., brake pads and brake discs).

Why did the headlight restoration spray become blurry after over-application?

First, use 3M 2000-grit sandpaper to sand while spraying water until the excess restoration spray is removed, then polish with a polishing machine. After treatment, you can reapply the spray. Introduction to Car Headlights: Car headlights, also known as automotive front lights or LED daytime running lights, serve as the 'eyes' of a vehicle. They not only affect the owner's external image but are also crucial for safe driving at night or in adverse weather conditions. Purpose of Headlight Adjustment: It allows the vehicle's lights to maintain an appropriate height at all times, facilitating nighttime driving and adapting to varying road surfaces. Importance of Headlight Adjustment: The more passengers seated in the rear, the lower the rear of the car will sag, causing the front of the car to rise accordingly. This elevates the headlight height, potentially dazzling oncoming drivers and distracting them, which can easily lead to traffic accidents.

What Procedures Are Required for Color Change Registration?

The documents required for applying to change the color of a motor vehicle include: "Application Form for Motor Vehicle Modification Registration," identity proofs of the vehicle owner and agent, the motor vehicle registration certificate, and the motor vehicle driving license. According to Article 6, Chapter 2 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law," if the color change area of a motor vehicle does not exceed 30%, there is no need to apply for modification registration. Conversely, if it exceeds 30%, registration is required, and the change must be registered within 10 days after the vehicle's color is altered. Precautions for changing vehicle wrap color: Before changing the color of a vehicle wrap, it is necessary to consult the local vehicle management office where the vehicle is registered to determine whether the region permits changing the vehicle's color through wraps. If the region does not support this method, the registration procedure cannot be completed after the modification, and the wrap must be entirely removed to restore the vehicle's original color. Additionally, according to the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations," owners are no longer required to apply to the vehicle management office in advance. They can first change the vehicle's color, install body kits, replace the engine, etc., and then apply for modification registration with the vehicle management office. According to Article 10, registered motor vehicles must apply for modification registration under the following circumstances: Change of body color. Replacement of the engine. Replacement of the body or frame. Whole vehicle replacement due to quality issues. Change of use, such as converting a commercial vehicle to a non-commercial vehicle or vice versa. Change of the vehicle owner's residence in or out of the jurisdiction of the vehicle management office. Furthermore, according to Article 15 of the "Road Traffic Safety Law of the People's Republic of China": Police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, and engineering rescue vehicles must be painted with designated patterns and equipped with alarms and signal lights as required. Other motor vehicles are prohibited from painting, installing, or using patterns, alarms, or signal lights that are exclusive to these vehicles or similar to them. Article 56 of the "Motor Vehicle Registration Regulations" states that if the body color is changed without completing the required modification registration, the public security traffic management department may issue a warning or impose a fine. The vehicle may also be impounded and required to revert to its original color.
