When is the Right Time to Replace Car Tires?

[EmilioLee]

There are two main criteria for replacing car tires: regular wear and tear, and tire damage. Regular wear and tear: The tread patterns on the front of the tire wear down over time. There are small blocks in the tread's drainage grooves that serve as wear limit indicators. When the tread wears down to the level of these indicators, the tire should be replaced. The second criterion is tire damage. The following situations require replacement: nails puncturing the tire or cracks forming, sidewall bulges, or severe indentations on the tread caused by prolonged driving with underinflated tires. Tires are circular elastic rubber products mounted on metal rims, designed to support the vehicle body, absorb external shocks, maintain contact with the road, and ensure driving performance.
