1. OVERVIEW
A radial tire uses a cord angle of 90 degrees. That is, the cord material runs in a radial or direct 
line from one bead to the other across the tread. In addition, a radial tire has a belt overwrap 
under the tread surface to provide greater structural stability. The belt overwrap of a radial tire 
distortion while the radial structure enables high speed driving.
Tire supports the weight of the vehicle, reduces the impact from the road and at the same time, 
transmits the power to propel, brake and steer on the road. It also functions to maintain a

vessel of air.
There is wear limit mark on the tire, which protrudes as a strip shape located approximately 1.6 
mm from the groove bottom. This wear limit mark is not seen from the outside so there is 
additional "▲" mark on the shoulder to let the driver find the wear mark easily. To measure the tire 
groove depth, measure at any point other than the point which has a wear limit mark.
The tire is worn unevenly according to the driver's driving habit, improper servicing, low tire 
inflation pressure, changed tire location, etc.

Structure of Tire ▶
Tread
This thick layer of rubber provides the interface between the tire and the road. Wear-resistant 
rubber is used to protect the carcass and belt against fractures and impacts and to deliver a long 
driving life.
Shoulder
Located between the tread and sidewall, the shoulder rubber is the thickest so that the design 
must allow for the easy diffusion of heat generated within the tire while driving.
Sidewall
The part between the shoulder and bead, the flexible sidewall protects the carcass and enhances 
the ride. A tire’s ty
pe, size, structure, pattern, manufacturing company, product name and various 
characters are indicated here.
Bead
The bead attaches the tire to the rim and wraps the end of the cord fabric. Comprised of the 
bead wire, core, flipper and other parts, the bead is generally designed to be slightly tight around 
the rim so that in the case of a sudden drop in inflation pressure, the tire will not fall off the rim.
Carcass
As the most important framework of a tire, the entire inner layer of cord fabric is called the 
carcass. The carcass acts to support air pressure, vertical load and absorb shocks.

The contact area between the 
ground and tire faces the 
tread layer completely. Thus 
the driving force and the 
braking force are optimized, 
and the tire is worn out evenly 
resulting in increased life.The contact area between 
the ground and tire is not 
enough, so the tire is worn 
out unevenly and the tire is 
vulnerability to outside 
influence.The contact area between the 
ground and tire is excessive, 
so a lot of heat is generated 
and the tire is worn out 
unevenly and abnormally.

During driving, the rotating tire repeats deformation and restoring movement in is tread. This 
happens when the tire pressure is low in high speed driving. 
However, when the wheel rotating speed is fast, the tire is deformed even before it is restored to 
its original shape and the trembling wave appears on the tread portion. If this symptom lasts for 
an extended period of time, the tire can be blown out in a short period of time.  
If the standing wave symptom occurs on the tire, rubber on the tread comes off and eventually 
the tire can be blown out which is very dangerous. When driving at high speed, the inflation 
pressure should be increased to decrease heat generation due to extension and contraction 
motion, to decrease hydroplaning and to prevent standing wave. 
To prevent this symptom, it is recommended to increase the tire pressure 10 ~ 30 % higher than 
the specified pressure value in high speed driving.

When the vehicle is driven on a road surface covered with water at high speed, tires do not 
contact with the road surface but rotate floating on a thin film of water.
It causes brake failure, lower traction force and losing the steering performance. 
To prevent this, increase the tire inflation pressure, use tires with leaf shape tread which is not 
worn. However, it is a best measure to drive slowly. Hydro Planing ▶

If weight is not equally distributed around the wheel, unbalance centrifugal force by the wheel 
rotation produces vibration. As the centrifugal force is produced proportional to the square of the 
rotating speed, the wheel weight should be balanced even at high speed. There are two types of 
the tire and wheel balancing: static and dynamic. Abnormal vibration may also occur due to 
unbalanced rigidity or size of tires.
Static Balance ▶
When the free rotation of the wheel is 
allowed, the heavier part is stopped on the 
bottom if the wheel weight is unbalanced and 
this is called "Static Unbalance". Also, the 
state at which tire's stop position is not same 
is called "Static Balance" when the wheel is 
rotated again. If the part A is heavier as 
shown in the figure 1, add the balance weight 
of a weight corresponding to unbalanced 
weight from B to A to maintain the static 
balance. If the static balance is not 
maintained, tramping, up and down vibration 
of the wheels, occurs. 
Dynamic Balance ▶
The static unbalance of the wheel creates the 
vibration in the vertical direction, but the 
dynamic unbalance creates the vibration in 
the lateral direction. As shown in the figure 2 
(a), if two parts, (2) and (3), are heavier when 
the wheels are under the static balance 
condition, dynamic unbalance is created, 
resulting in shimmy, left and right vibration of 
the wheels, and the torque Fxa is applied in 
the axial direction. To correct the dynamic 
unbalance, add the balance weight of a same 
weight for two points of  the circumference of 
the rim, A and B, as shown in the figure 2 (b), 
and apply the torque in the opposite direction 
to the torque Fxa to offset in order to ensure 
smooth rotation of the wheel.
