What size tires can be fitted on 16-inch rims?
1 Answers
16-inch rims can accommodate tires ranging from 185 to 275mm. Tires are circular elastic rubber products installed on metal rims, designed to roll on the ground for various vehicles or machinery. They support the vehicle body, absorb external shocks, ensure contact with the road surface, and maintain driving performance. The functions of tires include: 1. Supporting the entire weight of the vehicle, bearing the load, and transmitting directional forces and moments; 2. Working with the vehicle suspension to mitigate impacts during driving and dampen resulting vibrations; 3. Protecting vehicle components from severe vibrations and premature damage, adapting to high-speed performance and reducing driving noise; 4. Transmitting traction and braking torque, ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, and improving the vehicle's power, braking, and off-road capabilities.
