When it comes to my car, many car owners will say that my maintenance of the car is up to standard. But often asked about the wheel hub, the owner's response is another performance.
Rim refers to the hub, and rim protection is also hub protection. Tire hub protection, as the name suggests, refers to tires specially designed to protect the hub. I believe that when many car owners drive the car, the close contact between the tire and the road teeth occurs from time to time. The edge of the tire Zui is weak. When rubbing the road teeth, the wheel hub may also be injured. The sidewall is tough. A slight impact can't hurt the tire, but the sidewall rubs the road teeth once, and the wheel hub is likely to be injured. What can be done to solve this problem?
The best way is not to rub the road teeth, but this is not realistic. Where can a wheel run on the road without rubbing the road teeth? Perhaps a rim protected tire can solve this problem. After throwing this question, many people should want to know the difference between rim protected tires and rimless protected tires?
Tire with rim protection
There is a circle of protruding part near the toe opening of the tire, and the protruding part adopts rubber with strong rigidity. When the tire is scratched with the road teeth, the rubber with strong rigidity can resist the impact and protect the wheel hub from being scratched.
Tyres without rim protection
For the tire without rim protection, there is no protruding part near the toe opening. The tire is scratched with the road teeth. The soft sidewall can not bear large impact force, and the probability of hub injury is very high.
Function of rim to protect tire: avoid hub injury
The main function of wheel hub protection is to protect the wheel hub from scratch. In addition, the tire with wheel rim protection looks more beautiful. Because the rim protection requires more rigid rubber in the protruding part, it also means that the rigidity of the sidewall is stronger, and the angle between the sidewall and the tread tends to be square. Unlike the tire without rim protection, the sidewall is bulging.
Advantages and disadvantages: the advantages are more obvious
advantage:
1. Protect the hub from impact and scratch
The tire protected by the rim can trap the wheel hub in the protruding toe mouth to avoid external impact such as rubbing the road teeth.
2. Beautiful
The tire sidewall with rim protection adopts rubber with stronger rigidity. The sidewall and tread are square, and the tire looks more beautiful.
Disadvantages:
1. Reduced comfort
The rubber rigidity of the sidewall is stronger, the vibration filtering effect of the tire will be weakened to a certain extent, and its comfort performance will be reduced, but it will not be obvious.
2. The price is more expensive
The sidewall is made of more rigid rubber. With more raw materials for the same tire, the cost increases, and the price is naturally more expensive than that without rim protection. However, compared with the same model of the same brand, there is no comparability between different brands with or without rim protection due to differences in positioning and technology.
Installation requirements: all models are suitable
The tire with rim protection and the tire with deflagration protection use more rigid rubber on the sidewall. Are there higher requirements for installation? We should know that the reinforced sidewall has a certain impact on the comfort performance of the tire, and has higher requirements for the vehicle's damping system. Although the sidewall of the tire with rim protection is more rigid than the tire without rim protection, it is far from reaching the strength of the sidewall of the tire with and deflated protection. Therefore, the requirements for the damping system of the vehicle are not high. As long as the specifications are appropriate, all models can be installed.
