1. Tires

A tire (or tyre in British English) is a rubber covering that fits around a vehicle’s wheel and provides traction, support, and cushioning between the vehicle and the road.

  • Provides grip on the road for acceleration, braking, and turning.
  • Supports the weight of the vehicle and its passengers.
  • Absorbs shocks from bumps and rough surfaces.
  • Helps maintain fuel efficiency and handling.
  • Common Types of Tires:
    • All-season tires – for year-round use in mild climates.
    • Winter/snow tires – for improved traction on snow and ice.
    • Summer/performance tires – for better handling in warm, dry conditions.
    • Off-road or all-terrain tires – for trucks/SUVs used on rugged surfaces.
    • Run-flat tires – can still be driven on for a short distance after a puncture.
