I.Main Functions of A Tire:

①.Load bearing and supporting the vehicle:

Tires can support the weight of the vehicle.

②.Transmitting driving force:

Tires can transmit the power output by the engine to the ground.

Tires can keep a vehicle stable to ensureance that the vehicle stays on its intended path.

③.Maintaining vehicle stability:

④.Driving comfort:

Tires can absorb the vibration from the road and convert it into elastic energy, which improves the driving comfort.

Ⅲ.Classification of A Tire

1.Structure Classification of Tires:

◆RADIAL Tires

It refers to the angle between the carcass ply of the tire and the steel belts, which forms a 90-degree angle (similar to the Earth’s meridian lines), providing better stability and handling. Hence, the name “Radial tires”.

◆BIAS Tires

Each layer of tire carcass ply is arranged in a cross pattern.Hence, the name“BIAS Tires”

Ⅳ.Maintance and useage of Tires —— How to strage it:

Tires must not be placed with oil, flammables, and chemical corrosives, so as not to cause stickiness or softening of the tires.

Tires should be stored indoors, away from direct sunlight and rain.

Prevent tires from being damaged by foreign objects. (such as nails, stones, metal and glass shards, etc.)

Inventory turnover should be carried out in accordance with the order in which tires enter the warehouse.

Tires should be placed upright on the rack. If there is no storage rack, they must also be placed upright on the ground, so as not to cause the bead to merge and make it difficult to inflate.

Irregular Lie Flat(exceed 10 pcs of tires)

Example of placed upright on the rack

Stacking too much may cause tire deformation. When stacking tires for a long time, the upper and lower parts should be exchanged at least once a month!

Ⅳ.Maintance and useage of Tires —— How to choose it:

The correct selection of tires is an important prerequisite for ensuring the performance of tires and the entire vehicle.

Therefore, when selecting tires, the following aspects should be considered:

The preferred specifications for the original vehicle are the corresponding level or load index, speed index, and the same type of pattern.

For example:

CAMRY

215/60R16 95V ER33(The initial tire configuration of the vehicle)

215/55R17 93V ER33(The initial tire configuration of the vehicle)

Usage Conditions of Tires:

Icy Road

Expressway

Different road conditions require different tires

Please remember not to mix the following tires on the same axle (except the spare tire):

1.Different types of tires ;

2.Tires with different specifications or different rims of the same specification;

3. Tires with different carcass structures.

Cannot place like below!

Ⅳ.Maintance and useage of Tires —— How to protect it:

1.Correct Tire Inflation Pressure

Incorrect tire pressure will directly affect the driving safety, lifespan, and vehicle handling stability.

When the tire pressure is low:

◆ Low tire pressure can cause accelerated wear at the shoulder of the tire, reducing tire life

Increased sidewall deflection makes it more likely to cause tire damage and threaten driving safety

Low tire pressure can easily cause bead detachment, posing a threat to driving safety

The tire inflation pressure is very important!

14 of 31

When the tire pressure is high:

◆ High tire pressure can cause accelerated wear in the center of the tire, reducing tire life

◆ Excessive tire pressure will increase tire rigidity, resulting in various problems, such as:

The break at the bottom of the patterned groove

Deformation of tread

Puncture

The suggestion of tire pressure:

Regularly check tire pressure at least once a month, and it is necessary to perform the test while the tires are cool.

Generally, inflate according to the pressure required by the car manufacturer.

The method of protecting the tires:

When the tires are changing the roation, it is necessary for us to do the wheel alignment.

2.Tire repair(Passenger Car)

After tire damage occurs, the following situations can be repaired before continuing use:

◆ 可修补范围:

①The remaining tread pattern depth is greater than 1/3 of the new tread pattern depth

②Only partially damaged tread can be repaired.

③When other parts are damaged (such as sidewalls, bead, etc.), they cannot be repaired

Type

Diameter of the hole

Distance between two holes

A quantity broken

Passenger Car

less than 5mm

greater than 70mm

Less than or equal to 2 broke

◆ Method:

Mushroom diced film

Common diced film

Mushroom nail film has a good repair effect and protective effect on tires

Repair through film

Main reason:

Ⅴ.Tire defect identification - sidewall bulge

Tires are scratched, bumped, stabbed, cushioned, and scratched

18 of 31

Adverse factors can cause abnormal wear and tear

Central wear

bilateral wear

local wear

The tire pressure is too high, which makes the ground pressure of the tread center too high

The tire pressure is too low, which makes the ground pressure of two tire shoulders too high

1.Brake lock and uneven brakin 2.Eccentricity caused by wheel rim deformation and assembly parts

feather wear

unilateral wear

Improper wheel alignment

(inclination and toe-in, etc.)
