Tyre Guarantee to be handled by manufacturer. Seller is not responsible for consequential liability. Tyre Maintenance is only covered in South Africa, tyres outside the borders of South Africa have no Tyre Maintenances.
A bubble on the sidewall of a tyre generally indicates damaged cords caused by severe impact. A tyre with a bubble on the sidewall should be removed immediately. A tyre in this damaged condition cannot be repaired.
- Then it will not wear unevenly resulting in longer life of the tyre
- Prevents overheating and therefore less tread wear
- If the tyre loses its inflation pressure it will not remain attached to the rim
- It assists in longer life of tread
- It can preserve balanced handling and traction
- It can even provide performance advantages.
- It identifies mechanical problems which can then be corrected
Tyres should be aligned and rotated every 8000 km’s
Remember, tyre rotation can't correct wear problems due to worn mechanical parts or incorrect inflation pressures.
Is the checking and adjustment of caster, camber and toe angles in a vehicle's suspension to maintain specifications engineered by the vehicle manufacturer for optimum performance.
Tyres which have a tread pattern that is different from one side to another. An Asymmetrical tyre offers the best of both excellent dry grip as well as enhanced wet performance.
It is the equal distribution of the mass of the tyre and the wheel assembly for smooth driving. Balance is achieved by fitting weights to the wheel rim to offset uneven weight distribution of the tyre or wheel.
Is a hoop of high tensile steel wires, which anchors the plies and conforms to the rim seat, to hold the tyre onto the wheel rim.
The angle between the centerline of the tyre and a vertical line as viewed from the front.
The tyre body which is composed of plies which form the tyre's structure and give it shape.
The angle between the vehicles steering axis and a vertical line, as viewed from the side.
The tyre construction utilizing plies whose cords run radial from bead to bead under the tread. This construction requires the belt to stabilize the tread and define the tyre diameter.
A tyre that is designed to resist the effect of deflation when punctured, and to enable the vehicle to continue to be driven at reduced speeds (up to 90km/h), and for limited distances of up to (160km) without damaging the vehicles rim.
The difference between the front and rear edges of tyres mounted on an axle. Toe-in means the front edges are closer together than the rear edges and tyres point inward. Toe-out means the front edges are farther apart than the rear edges and the tyres point outward.
Shoulder Wear = Under Inflation, Suspension Alignment, Wheel Alignment, Hard Driving
Crown Wear = Over inflation
Irregular Wear = Mechanical Fault, Heal and Toe Wear
Side Wall Damage = Pot Hole, Kerbs, Flat tyre It can be beneficial in several ways.
