When replacing tires, it is possible to avoid scratching the rims. When using a tire changer to replace tires, technicians will apply special lubricant on both the rims and tires. This protects the rims and tires and effectively prevents scratches. It is recommended to visit professional institutions and seek expert assistance for tire replacement. Below is some information about tires: 1. Tires: Tires are a crucial component of a car, being the only part that comes into contact with the ground. They significantly affect the vehicle's driving stability and safety. 2. Material: Tires are made of rubber, which can degrade over time. Therefore, tires need to be replaced periodically. 3. Lifespan: Under normal conditions, tires installed on a car can last for four years. It is advisable to replace them every four years. 4. Precautions: When purchasing new tires, always check the production date, as tires have a shelf life. 5. Warranty: Generally, unused tires have a shelf life of three years. If a tire has been in storage for over three years, it is best not to purchase it.
