How to make tires more durable?
1. Avoid turning in place
Due to the poor feeling of the car, many novices like to steer in place. This bad habit is basically brought out from the driving school. In situ steering will concentrate the wear of the tire on the same contact surface, resulting in serious local wear of the tire and shortening the service life. Therefore, the owner should avoid turning the direction in situ, but should turn the direction when the tire rolls. In this way, the ground will bring omni-directional and uniform normal wear to the tire.
2. Avoid hitting the shoulder and sinking into the pit
Some car owners prefer to park their cars on the shoulder of the road. When the vehicle rides on the shoulder, the tire will be squeezed, which is easy to cause the cord on the side of the tire to break and cause tire bulge.
Potholes in the road should also be avoided. When the tire runs over the hole, the tire will also be squeezed. The larger the pit and the higher the vehicle speed, the greater the extrusion force of the tire, which may also lead to bulging of the tire.
3. Avoid rubbing against the tire wall
Many times, rubbing the tire wall is inadvertently caused when the vehicle pulls over. It may be the owner's poor feeling of the car or the owner's desertion. The side of the tire belongs to the weak part of the tire. If it is seriously worn, it will also cause tire bulge and bring the hidden danger of tire burst. Therefore, when parking, the owner should pay more attention to the distance between the vehicle and the shoulder to avoid rubbing the tire wall.
4. Maintain proper tire pressure
Proper tire pressure can ensure uniform tire grounding area and reduce unnecessary wear. Therefore, car owners should develop the habit of regularly detecting tire pressure and know the tire pressure status of tires at any time. You can go to a professional repair shop or buy a tire pressure gauge to test the tire pressure. The tire pressure standard can refer to the tire pressure label of the vehicle.
5. There is no need to reduce tire pressure in summer
Many car owners believe that due to the high temperature in summer, reducing tire pressure can avoid tire burst. In fact, this operation will increase the contact surface between the tire and the ground, increase the friction, accelerate tire wear, and lead to faster tire temperature rise and easier tire burst. Therefore, maintain normal tire pressure in summer.
6. Exchange four tires according to the tire wear condition
Due to the different loads on the front axle and rear axle of the vehicle, in order to make the wear of the four tires equal and prolong the service life, we recommend that the owner change the position of the four tires every 8000km or 10000km. The owner can also decide whether to change the position of the four tires according to the tire wear.
What are the symmetrical pattern, asymmetric pattern and directional pattern of the tire?
The symmetrical pattern is based on the central groove of the tread, and the left and right patterns are the same; Asymmetric tread pattern means that the tread pattern of the tire does not show a symmetrical pattern; Directional pattern is a pattern that requires the rotation direction of the tire.
