Care Guide Tyre Pressure Tread Wear Rotation Balance Wheel Alignment Replacement Storage Home Help & Support Care Guide Balance Balance Tyre balance must be checked if the steering wheel vibrates or if there is unwanted vibration or noise in the car. Learn about the importance of tyre balance, which is necessary for a smooth driving experience, when you need to go and inspect your tyres and how to take precautionary measures. The Importance of Tyre Balance Tyre balance is a process of compensating for the weight of the tyre and wheel after assembly. If not properly balanced you will experience increased vibration and additional stress on your vehicle. When to Check for Tyre Balance When the tyre is replaced. When the balance weight falls or the position is changed. How to Achieve Tyre Balance To balance the tyre and wheel assembly, a balance weight can be used when a certain spot is lighter or heavier than it should be.

Wheel Alignment - Tyre Care Guide | Hankook Tire Australia site

Care Guide Tyre Pressure Tread Wear Rotation Balance Wheel Alignment Replacement Storage Home Help & Support Care Guide Wheel Alignment Wheel Alignment To prevent vibration, skidding, noise, and wear, wheel alignment inspection is necessary. Learn about useful information regarding wheel alignment and how to perform an inspection. The Importance of Wheel Alignment If your tyres are wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tyre wearing faster than the rest of the tread, your vehicle may be out of alignment. This conditions not only shorten the life of your tyres but adversely affect the handling characteristics of your vehicle, which could be dangerous. If you detect irregular wear, have your alignment checked immediately. Aspects of Wheel Alignment Caster Camber Toe Caster Caster angle settings when compared (from the side) allow the vehicle manufacturer to balance steering effort, high speed stability and front end cornering effectiveness. Increasing the amount of positive caster will increase steering effort and straight line tracking as well as improving high speed stability and cornering effectiveness, whereas decreasing positive caster results in less steering stability. Camber The camber prevents tyre abrasion and increases steering manipulation. According to the angle at which the top or bottom portion of a tyre pulls inward or outward when the car is on a flat surface, there are three types of camber: positive, negative and neutral. With the development of suspension and auto technology, most vehicles today have negative camber. In the case of negative camber, the car tilts when cornering due to centrifugal force. The outer tyres area of contact with the road surface increases, which allows for safe cornering. Toe The toe refers to the directional difference between the front and back of a tyre formed by the upper part of an axis on a flat plane. There are two types of toe: toe-in and toe-out. Toe-in indicates the tyres front part pulled inward and toe-out indicates the tyres front part pulled outward. In the case of severe toe-out, abrasion occurs on the tyres inner surface. In the case of severe toe-in, abrasion occurs on the tyres outer surface. Both cases experience a high degree of resistance from the road surface, which results in decreased drivability and greater fuel cost. A controlled degree of toe-in increases safety in straight line driving and offsets inner abrasion that occurs due to negative camber. When to Check Wheel Alignment We recommend checking wheel alignment during an annual inspection or for every 20,000 km driven. An inspection is required when, The car has been in an accident. After tyre replacement. When there is abnormal tread wear on the tyres shoulder. When the handling is unstable and/or wobbles. When ride quality has become rougher or fuel economy has declined.

Tyre Pressure - Tyre Care Guide | Hankook Tire Australia site

Care Guide Tyre Pressure Tread Wear Rotation Balance Wheel Alignment Replacement Storage Home Help & Support Care Guide Tyre Pressure Tyre Pressure The tyre inflation pressure is directly related to safety therefore must be checked regularly as correct maintenance can prolong the lifespan of the tyres. Learn more about the importance of tyre inflation pressure and how to check the pressure of your tyres below. Importance of Tyre Pressure Optimum air pressure should be maintained to ensure safety, driving performance, tyre life and fuel cost. Tyres have been known to lose up to one pound per square inch (psi) every month. It is important to check all tyres, even the spare, at least once a month or before a long trip. Tyre pressures should be checked at least once each month and before every long-distance trip. Tyre pressure and tyre life Recommended Interval Tyre pressures should be checked at least once each month and before every long-distance trip. Tyre Pressure Status Low air pressure: It causes the contact patch width to increase, which results in excessive force on the either edge of the tread. Outer abrasion can damage each part of the tyre. It also contributes to an increased slope of the sidewall compared to that of optimum air pressure, which can be dangerous. High air pressure: Due to the inflated shape of the tyre, like a balloon, the force is focused at the center. The resulting uneven force across the contact patch becomes the cause of irregular tread wear. Checking for Optimum Tyre Pressure Hankook recommends that you check your tyre pressure once each month. The optimum air pressure level for your tyre can be found on the inner side of the car door, or in the car manual (the location of the sticker can vary according to country). The number on the tyre sidewall means maximum tyre pressure. Therefore, do not apply tyre pressure above it. Driver's side door How to Check Tyre Pressure Step 1 Purchase a certified air pressure gauge or take your vehicle to a nearby service center or fuel station for a check-up. Step 2 Tyres must be checked in a “cold” state (at least three hours after driving). Step 3 Insert the gauge into the valve. Step 4 Compare the measured air pressure level with the level listed on the car door. * If the measured figure is higher release air until the figure matches what is listed on the car door. * If the measured figure is lower insert more air until the figure matches what is listed on the car door.
