In the late 60s, the automotive industry introduced a new set of tyres- The Low-Profile Tyres. Eventually, they captured the market all over especially in the luxury car segments like BMW and Porsche 911 Turbo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Low-profile tyres have also made their way from sports and luxury cars to the mainstream market. It is advisable to know the differences between a low-profile tyre and regular tyre. A code mentioned on the sidewall is used to know about the aspect ratio, which means the ratio of the width of the tyre to its height. A low-profile tyre has less aspect ratio than a shorter sidewall. If a tyre has a 50-aspect ratio or less than that, it means it is a low profile. It is a fact that narrower the sidewall is, larger will be the wheel. Therefore, a car with low profile tyres has the coveted sport look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, low-profile tyres have treads that ensures high grip on the road. Such tyres have steel belts that makes them stiff. The flexible sidewall shields the interior as well, and overall components add durability and movement to the tyre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wearing of a Low-Profile Tyre <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Low profile tyres have better grip and stability as compared to other Tyres Leeds<\/strong><\/a> and because of this reason, such tyres wear-out faster. The tyres which are specially designed to give good speed and traction are softer and therefore, are prone to damage. Hence, before purchasing a set of low-profile tyres, one must figure out if they are compatible with the particular vehicle or not. One can check the load of the index of low-profile tyres combined with the size and speed rate. However, low profile tyres have one enemy known as the potholes. Sinking into a pothole may cause serious damage to a tyre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nowadays,\u00a0tyres brand<\/strong>\u00a0are specially focused to design tyres with the in-build suspension system that increases the longevity and durability of the tyres. The system also helps to absorb shocks which are generated by hitting potholes. The suspension system must adapt to the car rims and tyres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Therefore, it is important to regularly maintain tyre by checking pressure and tyre depth. The correct pressure in the tyre depth would help a tyre to resist any environment and weather condition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overinflation can harm the low-profile tyres as air pressure would make tread footprint smaller which can significantly cause excessive wearing in the middle. Under-inflation can cause overheating and increases the chance of tyre damage.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Advantages of a Low-Profile Tyre <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1.  Low profile tyres are a good-looking pair of tyres, especially when they are accessorized with chrome wheels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. They have stiff sidewalls which compensate for their less height. It has stiffer springs which help to transfer less weight while speeding. This also helps in quick stopping and fast acceleration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. They have a larger rim and create more contact and grip that significantly leads to better braking. Large rims also help in better handling while cornering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. The low-profile tyres are fuel-efficient because they have short sidewalls and simple tread designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. The tyres are stable and stiff as compared to any standard tyres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Disadvantages of a Low-Profile Tyre<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Since they have a wide contact patch, they are a lot noisier than a normal tyre. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Sometimes these tyres offer bumpy and uneven rides on rough roads <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. They wear must faster than standard tyres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Steering may become difficult and harder in these tyres<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
