Automobile tire selection and use of tire choose to vary due to vehicle

    According to statistics, the accident mortality rate of unnatural deaths accounted for a considerable proportion of the traffic accident caused by another because of tire problems accounted for more than 70%. Owners concerned about the vehicles performance, fuel consumption, while the daily use and maintenance of tires should become a focus of attention.

Tire choose to vary due to vehicle

When the tire wear, in order to put on new tires is that each car owner can not evade this problem. Then the tire must’ll replace original tire? An automotive technician said that the vehicle manufacturer will generally recognized for their supporting a number of tire companies, and therefore priority for original tires at the same time, the car owner can also be based on their needs, through the installation of other brand tires.

Tire tread, width, flat-rate decisions are an important indicator of tire performance. Owners to make their car look more aggressive, we could have facelift wider, lower tires flat rate; to enhance vehicle traction and handling performance, you can facelift sport tires; to enhance the comfort, you can change a dedicated station wagon tires.

It is worth recalling that, if you want to improve vehicle traction, then the facelift of the degree of tire wear and noise will be a number of poor performance; while changing tire wear, which provides traction for the vehicle will be weaker; high flat the rate of tire feel comfortable, but the road feel worse if the vehicle turning lateral resistance is poor; In contrast, a low flat rate of tires the vehicle has better handling, but it is necessary to sacrifice some comfort for the price. Therefore, when the owners in choosing tires must be aware of their needs and what is the purpose, so that only targeted.

When the election must pay attention to check the tire side of the tire marks is clear and complete, if there are traces of smear or Daoke, the owner must play a question mark. Because the tire business has a problem or sell stock tires will be standard treatment, the make of this tire, trademarks and other marks before leaving the factory will be produced by chemical processing, etc., is known as the marketing standard.

Worse still, there are some tire marks had been cut very probably tire quality has been identified as a problem company waste tires.

Another situation is a sign of tires is to re-posted up, and could easily be scraped off the fingers. Such signs are posted after the tires are probably refurbished tires.

Tire inflation should be accurate

Some car owners to use the experience sink in accordance with the amount of the tire, hit the ground area, etc. to determine the adequacy of tire pressure.

In fact, it is unscientific. Are endless types of tires, some tires are still inflated when the ground is enough to maintain a large contact area. Therefore, when the barometer is the real objective reflection of the inflated tire pressure of the necessary tools. Under-inflated tire wear will be accelerated, while the over-inflated, the tire cord will be too much done, it will affect their strength and shorten tire life. Moreover, too much inflation will directly lead to a puncture.

To check tire inflation before the valve to see if it is the co-ordination with valve formation, whether there is need to correct defects such as uneven surfaces, or else they are not inflated and the pressure measurements. The inflation process and pay attention to maintain cleanliness. Pneumatic valve lips before the wipe the dust-filled into the gas should not contain water or oil, these pairs of rubber products is a fatal blow.

Another point need to be reminded that we have to wait for the tire inflation cool car after the tires loose after the heat, otherwise the situation will affect the tire pressure high, so that inflation not be allowed.

Anti-abnormal tire wear

For the tire wear is normal, but sometimes because the owner allowed the use of improper positioning, or caused by tire wear, these were not normal, and need to attract car owners on alert.

Excessive tire wear on both sides of tire contact with the ground may be too large making. The long-term inflation is likely to be insufficient tire or vehicle traffic caused by overload. Side tire wear is too large: This is caused due to tire positioning are not allowed. The current round of the camber is too large, they will cause excessive tire pressure on the outside, bringing significant wear and tear. On the contrary when the camber off hours, easy to form on the inside tire wear; tire wear the middle of a serious, when the tire contact area with the ground an hour, the pressure of friction with the ground by the tire the middle of all the commitment, there would tread the middle part Wear serious consequences.

This is probably due to excessive inflation caused by excessive tire deformation, while reducing the contact area with the ground, saving fuel, but also accelerated tire wear and tear. Also, if applied in a narrow rim on a wide tire can also cause excessive tire wear and tear the middle of the consequences.

Irregular tire wear occurs may be due to poor tire balance, when the high-speed driving, the tire is too large for individual parts of the force caused by. If the owner is driving the process, when the sense of direction in order to open a specific speed, the vehicle appeared jitter, then we must guard against the wheel balance problems, and early detection in order to Fangfei normal wear and tear.

    Interpretation of tire marks

TUBELESS: Tubeless.

RADIAL: radial tire.

STEELBELTED: tire cord layer containing the wire, that wire tire.

TREADWEAR: wear index, the lower the number, said the stronger the grip, but the relatively short life.

Tire sizes Example

(In 195/55R15, for example:) 195: section width, that is, the size of tires can be ground in order to millimeters.

55: tire flat rate, which is tire section height and section width ratio.

R: construction sign, R is the abbreviation for radial tires. Bias ply tire in English letters “B” indicated. Passenger car tires are generally radial tire.

15: tire diameter, namely wheel diameter, generally in units of inches.
