Reasons to choose authorized tires
Do you know contact area of tire on the road is just the same size as one’s palm? In fact, the tire is an important part directly affecting vehicle’s performance, smoothness and especially passengers’ safety. When a vehicle increases its speed, there is a gradual increase in the pressure and temperature of the vehicle. If a tire is not fully compliant with the strict standards , the suitable design for the characteristics of each type of terrain or area as well as appropriate maintenance for the tires’ longevity, there is a high chance of resulting in tragic accidents.
However, unfortunately a number of vehicle owners now do not have enough information and pay proper attention in choosing a reliable source of tires before making decisions to buy them. Some people still prefer cheap price over other factors. As a result, customers end up buying tires sold by parallel importers.
