INFORMATION

There are countless advanced functions concentrated in a single tire, such as bearing weight, absorbing and mitigating shock, driving the engine, and changing and maintaining directions.

Since tires come in direct contact with the surface of the road while driving, they are produced in a scientific structure in association with rubber layers of various components to protect the surface from external shock or damage.

A highly sophisticated process is required to make a single tire, undergoing multiple phases until it is warehoused.

The load index is indicated by coding the maximum load that can be driven by a single tire. For example, a tire with a load index of 100 has a maximum load of 800kg.

Check the table to find out that the inch-up outer diameter (OD) is theoretically almost the same as the basic standard OD.

You must check the tire standards when purchasing a tire. If you must replace a tire, you must be aware of the tire standards and information in advance to ensure a perfect tire for your car.

It is advised to change the position of the replaced and installed tires in regular base depending on the worm-out state. By doing so, the life of tires can be extended as all four tires are evenly worm out. The period of the tire repositioning is approximately every 10,000km of driving as suggested by the automobile companies

Like the car body, tires can be used for a long time only if they are managed properly. Ensure safety while also extending the lifespan of your tires through the ‘Tire Test Checklist.’

If you are aware of the basic cautions and make a habit of checking them when using tires, you can drive safely while also preventing tire damage in advance.
