What to Do If a Car Tire Is Leaking Air?
1 Answers
If sharp objects such as nails are embedded in the tire, do not remove them; simply replace the tire with the spare. If there is no spare tire or you are unable to change it, control your speed and drive slowly to the nearest gas station or repair shop for assistance. Below is relevant information about tires: 1. Introduction: The tire is one of the most important components of a car. Its main functions include: supporting the entire weight of the vehicle and bearing the load of the car; transmitting traction and braking torque to ensure the adhesion between the wheels and the road surface; reducing and absorbing vibrations and impacts during driving to prevent severe vibrations and premature damage to car components; adapting to the high-speed performance of the vehicle and reducing noise during driving; ensuring driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and fuel efficiency. 2. Components: A tire is typically composed of three parts: the outer tire, the inner tube, and the flap. Some tires do not require an inner tube, as they have an inner layer of highly airtight rubber and require specialized rims. The structure of tires worldwide is evolving toward tubeless, radial construction, flat (with a low height-to-width ratio of the tire cross-section), and lightweight designs.
