Learn about the importance of tire balance, which is necessary for a smooth driving experience, when you need to go and inspect your tires and how to take precautionary measures. The Importance of Tire Balance Tire balance is a process of compensating for the weight of the tire and wheel after assembly. If not properly balanced you will experience increased vibration and additional stress on your vehicle. When to Check for Tire Balance When the tire is replaced. When the balance weight falls or the position is changed. How to Achieve Tire Balance To balance the tire and wheel assembly, a balance weight can be used when a certain spot is lighter or heavier than it should be.

Wheel Alignment - Tire Care Guide | Hankook Tire Middle East & Africa site

Care Guide Tire 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 tires are wearing unevenly, such as the inside shoulder of the tire wearing faster than the rest of the tread, your vehicle may be out of alignment. This conditions not only shorten the life of your tires 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 tire abrasion and increases steering manipulation. According to the angle at which the top or bottom portion of a tire 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 tires 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 tire 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 tires front part pulled inward and toe-out indicates the tires front part pulled outward. In the case of severe toe-out, abrasion occurs on the tires inner surface. In the case of severe toe-in, abrasion occurs on the tires 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 tire replacement. When there is abnormal tread wear on the tires shoulder. When the handling is unstable and/or wobbles. When ride quality has become rougher or fuel economy has declined.

Tire Pressure - Tire Care Guide | Hankook Tire Middle East & Africa site

Care Guide Tire Pressure Tread Wear Rotation Balance Wheel Alignment Replacement Storage Home Help & Support Care Guide Tire Pressure Tire Pressure The tire inflation pressure is directly related to safety therefore must be checked regularly as correct maintenance can prolong the lifespan of the tires. Learn more about the importance of tire inflation pressure and how to check the pressure of your tires below. Importance of Tire Pressure Optimum air pressure should be maintained to ensure safety, driving performance, tire life and fuel cost. Tires have been known to lose up to one pound per square inch (psi) every month. It is important to check all tires, even the spare, at least once a month or before a long trip. Tire pressures should be checked at least once each month and before every long-distance trip. Tire pressure and tire life Recommended Interval Tire pressures should be checked at least once each month and before every long-distance trip. Tire 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 tire. 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 tire, 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 Tire Pressure Hankook recommends that you check your tire pressure once each month. The optimum air pressure level for your tire 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 tire sidewall means maximum tire pressure. Therefore, do not apply tire pressure above it. Driver's side door How to Check Tire 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 Tires 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.
