Will tire aging increase tire noise?
1 Answers
Tire aging can indeed increase tire noise. When a vehicle is in motion, tire noise is generated, which is determined by the interaction between the tire and the road surface. Severe wear on the tire tread can amplify the vibration noise of the tire. Factors such as road roughness, road structure, road material, tire pressure, and tire size are all significant contributors to tire noise levels. The specific factors are as follows: 1. Road structure: Friction and vibration occur when the tire tread meets the road surface. 2. Tire pressure: Abnormal tire pressure affects tire noise, which is also why new cars may have louder tire noise. 3. Tire tread pattern design: The design of the tire tread plays a dominant role in tire noise. 4. Tire size directly determines the level of tire noise: Generally, larger tire sizes result in louder tire noise.
