Tire uniformity refers to uniformity of weight, dimensions and rigidity. However, since uniformity of weight is ordinarily called “wheel balance”, and uniformity of dimensions (or rather, the lack thereof) Read more Tire Uniformity of rigidity or the Wheel Balance
There are various ways to classify tires. The type of tirea ccording to the road surface which is used is emphasized and the functions and characteristics of each type of tire are indicated.
1. Snow tires
(3) Rib-and-lug pattern
This pattern combines the rib and lug patterns to provide stable driving performance on both paved and unpaved roads.
The rib pattern running along the center of the tire Read more Manual Transaxle Tires and Disc Wheels 2 of 2
