What are electric tricycle tires
Tires are an important part of electric tricycles.
Many people ignore the importance of tires while ensuring driving safety.
A good tire needs comfort and wears resistance, and good grip and drainage.
The first number on the tire represents the tire’s tread width, also known as the tread width.
The wider the tire width, the higher the driving comfort, the stronger the grip, and the better the cornering performance.
The disadvantages are also more apparent, the tire noise is also relatively large, and the fuel consumption will increase.
What models of electric tricycle tires are there
Electric tricycle tire models are as follows:
- 100/60-120, tire diameter is 12;
- 90/90-12, the outer diameter of the tire is 12;
- 70/100-17, outer tire diameter is 17;
- 90/80-10, tire outer diameter 10;
- 3.0-10, tire outer diameter 10;
- Electric vehicle tires 16*3.0 are tire models. 16 X3.016 means the tire is 16 inches in diameter, and 3.0 means the tire.
- The tire width is 3 inches 1 inch = 2.54 cm; 16 X3.5 tires can be replaced.
The meaning of each number
- 3.00-10, “3.00” means that the width of the tire end face is 3 inches, that is, 25.4×3.00=76.2mm; “10” represents the inner diameter of the tire, that is, the diameter of the wheel, 25.4×10=254mm; The “-” in the middle indicates low-pressure tires.
- 130/90-15, “130” means the tread width of the tire is 130mm; “90” means that the tread height of the tire is 90mm; “10” represents the inner diameter of the tire, that is, the diameter of the wheel, 25.4×15=381mm; The “-” in the middle indicates low-pressure tires.
How to choose electric tricycle tires
Tires are naturally essential for electric tricycles. Without tires, it is impossible to travel at all.
But today, we are talking about the impact of the size of the tire on the driving of the vehicle and how to choose the right tire:
Vehicle speed
The relationship between the size of the tire and the speed of the vehicle is very complicated. Generally speaking, the original tire is the most suitable ratio for the electric tricycle.
If the tires are faulty, replacing different tire styles may cause the vehicle’s speed to drop or increase. If the tires are too large, the requirements for the motor will be more. If the tires are too small, the stability and speed of the vehicle will decrease.
Climb
The increase in tire size will reduce the climbing ability of electric tricycles.
For electric tricycles with slightly insufficient power, the lack of performance when climbing is a severe problem.
As the tire size becomes more extensive, the shock absorption system also needs to be strengthened to ensure the stability of the driving.
Power consumption
The larger and broader electric tricycle tires have a larger contact area with the ground during driving, and the resistance they receive is more significant, which requires more kinetic energy. Their power consumption is higher than that of relatively narrow tires.
But from a stable point of view, wider tires have better performance in terms of smoothness in driving.
The tires of electric tricycles cannot be modified at will.
The size requirements of the tires are closely related to the various components of the electric tricycle, which can be said to affect the whole body.
Therefore, when the tire needs to be replaced in case of failure, we should try to use the original size electric tricycle tires.
