What Should Vehicle-Specific Tires Be Adapted To?
1 Answers
Vehicle-specific tires should be adapted to the maximum design speed. Service life of car tires: Generally, tires have a service life of 3-5 years. Regular maintenance is also necessary, checking whether the tire tread has bulges, cracks, scratches, punctures, or abnormal wear. Using damaged tires that cause tire wear increases safety risks during driving. Methods for car tire maintenance: Regularly clean stones from tire grooves, minimize exposure to sunlight, promptly check tire pressure, pay attention to suspension maintenance, conduct regular front-wheel alignment checks, and adopt proper driving techniques. Choose appropriate road surfaces while driving to avoid objects that can puncture or scratch tires, and steer clear of chemical spills that may corrode tires. Principles for tire replacement: Same specifications: Tires of different specifications have varying outer diameters and section widths when inflated, leading to uneven load distribution if mounted on the same axle. Same structure: Radial and bias-ply tires have different carcass structures, resulting in varying cushioning performance and axial deformation. Mixing these two types on the same axle causes uneven load distribution and inconsistent wear. Same tread pattern: Different tread patterns not only affect wear differently but also alter ground adhesion. Inconsistent tread patterns on left and right tires impact vehicle smoothness and may cause unilateral skidding or tail flicking during emergency braking.
