如果您生活在有可能的降雪的地区,那么您需要为冬季驾驶条件做好准备。这意味着,如果雪变得足够深,可以使驾驶危险,则在您的躯干中有一组轮胎链。
When choosing tire chains, it’s important to consider a number of different factors, including size, whether your car is rated for chains or cables, the class of chains your car can use, and more.
The following are some useful tips regarding snow chains:
Automaker’s specifications:所有汽车制造商都指定可以在车辆上使用的轮胎链。您会在所有者手册中找到此信息。切勿使用制造商未指定的轮胎链,也不会损坏车轮,悬架,制动器或其他组件。
Class: Look for tire chains that are rated as SAE Class S. These are sized for today’s front-wheel drive cars and lower ground clearances. Other classes are designed for vehicles with higher ground clearances and may damage your car.
Sized to fit Your tires: There’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach to tire chains. You need to ensure that they’re right for your tire size. If you’re not sure what size tires your car has, you can find this information on the tire sidewall, or on the driver side door placard. It will look something like this: P265/70R16.
链or cables: Many cars on the road today are not designed to work with chains at all. They’re designed to work with cables, which install very differently (and are not interchangeable with chains). Check your owner’s manual to see if you should use chains or cables.
Speed rating:所有轮胎链都有最大速度等级。确保您知道它是什么,并坚持下去(或以下)。请注意,较高的速度评级不一定会使轮胎链更好。
轮胎链是雪堆是生活的事实的驾驶员的必要条件。
