The fate of spare tires is generally tragic. You don't have to ignore it for 800 years, but you often only use it when you need it; It was abandoned afterwards. Of course, I'm talking about a real car spare tire. If it is similar to a real person, it is purely coincidental, purely coincidental.
Although it is purely coincidental, it is true. When driving on a spacious or congested road, whether the tire is punctured or punctured, the vehicle needs maintenance. The use of trailers has long waiting time and high cost. At this time, people often think of using a spare tire. However, do you usually pay attention to maintaining the spare tire? If not, how can we ensure that the spare tire will be "diligent" at this moment?
Spare tire inflation
Because the spare tire has no "bright future" under non-special circumstances and does not bear the pressure of the vehicle, the speed of air leakage will be very slow. But this cannot be a reason to take it lightly. After all, even tires will leak more or less. No matter how much you don't pay attention to it, you should charge it once every six months.
Regular inspection of spare tires
Spare tires have the same wear limit as ordinary tires. If it reaches the wear limit, it should be replaced in time. However, most people probably don't need to check this item unless you drive a spare tire every day.
Don't put it with corrosive substances.
Usually the spare tire is placed under the trunk floor. Some car owners are used to preparing one or two bottles of antifreeze, engine oil and other liquids and putting them in the trunk. If the oil leaks to the surface of the spare tire, it will be difficult to find it because the spare tire is not commonly used. Time will corrode the spare tire.
Spare tires also have a life.
Spare tires are also divided into adolescence and old age. Once you enter your twilight years, you can basically return to the dust. Under normal circumstances, the aging cycle of spare tires is about 4 years. If it is time to use the spare tire urgently, it will not be worth the loss if it is found that the spare tire is too old to be used.
Should not be used for a long time.
This is mainly for non-full-size spare tires. It is different from conventional tires in many aspects. Long-term use will have a certain impact on the braking system, steering system and suspension system of vehicles. More seriously, it will cause hidden dangers of driving safety. Spare tire Spare tire is only used when necessary.
When the spare tire is repaired
This is difficult for ordinary people to meet. If the spare tire is punctured, you have to "reverse" more ... but I still remind you. If you want to use the repaired tires again, you should put the vehicle on the rear wheel regardless of the driving mode. This is because the risk factor of front tire puncture is relatively higher, so it will be safer to put the repaired tire on the rear wheel.
