Will there be any impact if replacing original LT tires with non-LT ones?
1 Answers
Replacing original LT tires with non-LT ones does have an impact. If the vehicle's weight and preload exceed the tire's maximum load capacity, they cannot be used, otherwise it's very prone to tire blowouts. Meaning of LT: Tire LT stands for Light Truck tire. Tires used for light-duty trucks employ stronger steel wires with smaller gaps between them, arranged more densely, offering better impact resistance and longer service life. Tire classification: Based on tire structure, vehicle tires are divided into radial tires and bias-ply tires, these two types being the most widely used; classified by tread pattern, tires can be categorized into rib pattern tires, transverse pattern tires, mixed pattern tires, and off-road pattern tires, with different tread patterns serving different purposes.
