When it comes to car maintenance, most car owners only maintain the engine, gearbox or car body. But another core component of the car is often overlooked – the tires. Many people think that tires do not need special maintenance, and they can change one after three or four years.
But in fact, this idea is wrong. If the maintenance of the tire is neglected for a long time, the service life of the tire will not only be greatly shortened, but also may suddenly burst the tire during driving, causing a serious traffic accident. So how can we extend the service life of the tire in the daily driving process?
First, avoid touching corrosive liquids on the tires
Corrosive liquids can corrode and damage car tires, causing air leaks or punctures. And it should be noted that gasoline can also cause corrosion of tires. Therefore, when we drive every day, we should avoid tire contact with oil and corrosive liquids, of course, if the tire is accidentally stained, it can be cleaned and treated in time.
Second, do not go too fast when crossing low-lying roads
If the speed is too fast in the bumpy section of the road, it will cause irreversible damage to the inner wall of the car tire. This is because when the wheel speed is too fast, due to the inertia of the car, when the wheels and the potholes in the bumpy road come into contact, the chassis cannot filter out all the vibrations, which will transfer most of the energy to the tires. This is most likely to cause nylon wire wear inside the tire, which will make the tire bulge or even burst the tire, affecting the service life of the tire.
Third, the tire pressure is too high or too low
Long-term low-pressure driving of tires can damage the inner wall of the tire and shorten the service life of the tire. Long-term high-pressure driving of tires increases the risk of punctures in cars. Although many cars are now equipped with tire pressure monitoring systems. However, for cars without tire pressure monitoring systems, long-term regular inspection of tires can not only extend the service life of tires, but also avoid serious traffic accidents caused by punctures.
Fourth, clean up the sharp objects on the tires in time
When the car is driving on a gravel section, many sharp stones may be stuck in the gap in the tire, although these stones do not puncture the tire. But once a car bump occurs, these stones stuck in the gap in the car tire can easily cause the car to leak air, or even burst the tire. Therefore, in order to extend the service life of the tire, we should regularly check and clean the sharp stones on the tire.
Fifth, check the wear of the wheel regularly
If the wear and tear on the inside and outside sides of the car wheels are inconsistent, it will cause the car to deviate, increasing the risk of puncture. Seriously affect the service life of car tires. Therefore, in order to drive safely, to ensure driving safety. We should check the wear of the wheels regularly, or choose to check the tires by doing dynamic balancing or four-wheel alignment when servicing the car.
In order to ensure driving safety and extend the service life of tires. We will definitely check and maintain the tires in a timely manner. Tires play a vital role in driving safety. Sometimes a simple tire maintenance may avoid a traffic accident that destroys a car and kills people.
