Tires: Description and Operation
Tire
DESCRIPTION
Tires are designed and engineered for each specific vehicle. They provide the best overall performance for normal operation. The ride and handling
characteristics match the vehicle's requirements. With proper care they will give excellent reliability, traction, skid resistance, and tread life.
Driving habits have more effect on tire life than any other factor. Careful drivers will obtain in most cases, much greater mileage than severe use or
careless drivers. A few of the driving habits which will shorten the life of any tire are:
-
Rapid acceleration
-
Severe brake applications
-
High speed driving
-
Excessive speeds on turns
-
Striking curbs and other obstacles
Radial-ply tires are more prone to irregular tread wear. It is important to follow the tire rotation interval shown in the section on Tire Rotation. This
will help to achieve a greater tread life.
