This is an article you should pay close attention to.
A tire (American English) or tyre (British English; see spelling differences) is a ring-shaped component that surrounds a wheel’s rim to transfer a vehicle’s load from the axle through the wheel to the ground and to provide traction on the surface over which the wheel travels.
Most tyres, such as those for automobiles and bicycles, are pneumatically inflated structures, which also provide a flexible cushion that absorbs shock as the tire rolls over rough features on the surface. Tires provide a footprint, called a contact patch, that is designed to match the weight of the vehicle with the bearing strength of the surface that it rolls over by providing a bearing pressure that will not deform the surface excessively.
The materials of modern pneumatic tyres are synthetic rubber, natural rubber, fabric and wire, along with carbon black & other chemical compounds. They consist of a tread and a body. The tread provides traction while the body provides containment for a quantity of compressed air.
Pneumatic tyres are used on many types of vehicles, including cars, bicycles, motorcycles, buses, trucks, heavy equipment, and aircraft. A tyre comprises several components: the tread, bead, sidewall, shoulder, and ply.
Alot of drivers don’t know that tyres expires.
They believe that tyres have to get worn out before they stop using which isn’t true.
Just like pills tyres expire used or unused.
Tyres have a life span of four years & can get bad before the expected lifespan.
On every tyre there are inscriptions and they all have meanings but for the purpose of this thread I will be showing you how to identify expired tyres.
On every tyre there are four numbers together.
Any tyre without what I circled in the picture attached has been tempered on. And it’s being tempered with because its expired.
The four circled numbers are the manufacturing date of tyres, remember I said tyres have a life span of four years.
Do you know the first two numbers is the production week. In this picture this tyre was produced third week while the last two numbers is the year of production. This tyre was produced in 2011. Meaning the tyre was produced third week of 2011.
Anytimes you want to buy tyres take your time to check, tyre looking new and unused doesnt mean it is ok and fit to be used.
Most people but tyres and next day they get issues tickets and they get angry not knowing they bought expired tyres.
Be warned.
Tomorrow I will talk about worn out tyres.
And extensively show you different types of worn out tyres.
Remember that tyres are very essential they are the legs of the vehicle.
They deserve to be intact for every trip
Thanks for reading
