What to Do If a Car Without a Spare Tire Gets a Flat Tire?
1 Answers
Here are the steps to handle a flat tire for a car without a spare tire: If your car without a spare tire gets a flat while driving, promptly steady the steering wheel and slow down to stop safely. Set up a warning triangle behind the vehicle and call your insurance company or roadside assistance. 1. Excessive wear on both sides: The main causes are insufficient tire pressure or prolonged overloading. When the tire pressure is low or the load is heavy, the contact area between the tire and the ground increases, causing both sides of the tire to wear prematurely. 2. Excessive wear on one side: The main cause is misaligned front-wheel positioning. When the camber angle of the front wheels is too large, the outer edges of the tires wear prematurely. If the camber angle is too small or nonexistent, the inner edges of the tires wear prematurely.
