When is the appropriate mileage to replace tires?

[DeclanMarie]

It is appropriate to replace tires between 60,000 to 80,000 kilometers. The method for replacing tires is: 1. Use a jack to lift the vehicle to a certain height; 2. Remove the screws and take off the tire; 3. Install the new tire and lower the jack. Precautions for tire replacement include: 1. The new tire must match the other tire on the same axle; 2. Replace the valve stem when changing the tire; 3. Tire pressure should not exceed 2.8 bar; 4. Avoid sudden braking after installing new tires. The functions of tires are: 1. To ensure good ride comfort and smooth driving; 2. To ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving traction, braking, and off-road capability; 3. To transmit driving force, braking force, and steering force for vehicle operation; 4. To support the vehicle load; 5. To reduce and absorb vibrations and impacts during driving.

I've been driving for over a decade and always prioritize tire safety because it directly affects braking performance. Generally, you should pay extra attention after every 50,000 kilometers, but don't just focus on the mileage number - inspect the actual wear condition. For example, when tread depth drops below 1.6mm, braking distance on wet roads can double, which is extremely dangerous. I recommend using the coin test to check tread depth monthly, while also looking for bulges or cracks. If you frequently drive on highways, tires wear faster - replacing them within 60,000 kilometers is common, but remember road conditions and driving habits (like sudden braking) can shorten tire life. Have technicians inspect them during regular maintenance - safety comes first, don't skimp on this.

I'm usually very careful with my budget. Changing tires too early is a waste of money, but waiting too long can lead to more expensive problems. Generally, around 60,000 kilometers is the most suitable, but it depends on the brand and road conditions. For example, driving gently in the city might allow the tires to last up to 70,000 kilometers, but if you're driving on rough rural roads with lots of potholes, it's better to change them earlier. New tires are costly, but delaying replacement can lead to even higher expenses from blowouts and repairs. I've learned to check the wear bars myself—if they're shallow, it's time to replace the tires. I also check for uneven wear caused by incorrect tire pressure. I recommend checking your tires every quarter, not just waiting for the mileage to tell you when to change. This way, you save money and drive with peace of mind.

The tire structure is quite simple, consisting of rubber and fiber layers. After prolonged use exceeding 50,000 kilometers, they begin to age. I often check the tread wear indicators; once they're worn flat, the rubber becomes brittle and prone to cracking. High pressure or sharp turns accelerate wear, so it's important to check the tire pressure every 10,000 kilometers to ensure it's normal. 60,000 kilometers is a general reference point for replacement, and changing them can reduce noise and improve comfort.
