Under What Circumstances Should Tires Be Replaced in Time?

First: Clean the car as a whole, especially the tires. If the tire surface is covered with mud, it is easy to cover up the scars on the tread. Cleaning is to check whether there is mud, cuts, or bulges in the tires. If the tire is found to be cracked, it should be replaced immediately.

Second: If the tires are found to be severely worn, the braking force of the car will be reduced. To prevent this, it is best to replace them in time.

Third: If the tire valve is found to be a rubber product during inspection, when the rubber turns dark red, it indicates that the valve has aged and good air tightness cannot be guaranteed. Better to replace.

Check dynamic balance

During long-distance self-driving, your car must have experienced collisions, high-speed driving, sharp turns, emergency braking, or crossing obstacles. The tires will also lose balance due to such problems. As a result, vehicle deviation, bumps, or uneven wheel wear (commonly known as "tire chewing") may occur, affecting driving safety.

Check tire pressure

Checking tire pressure is the most important part of daily tire maintenance and should not be done just after returning from a hike. In daily driving, you should develop a good habit of checking tire pressure regularly (preferably once a week) to nip safety risks in the bud. Checking tire pressure should be done when the tires are cold. This is because when the tire heats up due to driving, the tire pressure will be higher than the actual value. If the tire pressure of the hot tire is reduced at this time, the tire pressure will be insufficient after cooling.

Check tire tread

The tread depth of tires used in rainy season must not be less than 1.6 mm, preferably more than 3 mm, because if the tread depth of the tire is too shallow, the drainage capacity of the tire will decrease, resulting in a decrease in wet grip, affecting driving safety, especially for rear tires. Side skidding or drifting may occur when turning.
