How to Keep Your Tires Strong All Summer Long?
After the summer, the temperature gradually rises. Drivers should pay special attention to the fact that if the tires of the vehicles are not well maintained, it is easy to have a tire blowout under the dual influence of high temperature and ultraviolet rays. Once there is a problem with the tires during driving, it will seriously endanger driving safety. Whether it is a sedan, new energy cars, off-road cars or electric cars, you should pay attention to the protection of the tires. With the arrival of summer, car owners need to pay special attention to the condition of the tires of their cars, check the tires first, and perform corresponding maintenance according to the actual situation.
The road surface temperature in summer is often above 70℃. If a car is driven for a long time in hot summer, the damaged or weak tires are prone to blowout or rapid wear due to excessive tire pressure. In addition, the air in the tire will automatically expand due to the temperature, and the tire pressure will rise from 2.3 kg to more than 3 kg. In order to ensure the tire pressure, it is recommended to fill with nitrogen in summer, and the filling pressure should be reduced by about 10%.
When driving in summer, you should avoid excessive use of tires. In summer, when driving at high speed for a long time, the tires should be cooled in the shade after driving for a while. When driving in the hot afternoon, the speed should be appropriately reduced. Pay attention to the load-bearing capacity of the tires and never overload them. This will keep the tire pressure normal and avoid overuse.
The owner should clean the tires regularly. Regular cleaning can prevent foreign objects from being trapped in the grooves of the tire tread. Stones or foreign objects in the tread grooves should be removed in time to avoid deformation of the tire crown.
In the summer, after the vehicle has been running for a while, some drivers will sprinkle water on the tires to help the tires cool down quickly. In fact, this practice is prone to danger. Using water to cool down the tires will make the overall temperature of the tires uneven, thus forming cracks and easily causing tire blowouts. When driving a car in the summer, natural cooling is the best way. In the summer, after driving at high speed for 2 to 3 hours, try to give the tires some time to cool down.
In summer, not only people need sun protection, but tires also need it. Long-term exposure to the sun will cause the rubber of the tires to age due to the ultraviolet rays of the sun, increasing the risk of tire blowouts. When using a car in summer, try to park it in a parking space that can block the sun. When parking for a long time, it is recommended to cover the tires with tire covers or cardboard.
For used cars, the problem of worn-out and aging tires is becoming more and more serious due to long-term use. Therefore, for used car owners, they should pay more attention to protecting tires during driving in summer. In addition to the precautions just mentioned, it is also necessary to choose a reliable second-hand car service provider to regularly inspect and maintain the tires.
