Tires amount to about 3–5% of the car’s general costs in international transport. This should be carefully thought through as a cheaper tire may eventually become more expensive. This is mostly the case of cheaper tires when you consider mileage…
The trends in neighboring countries increase the number of trucks that use special winter tires in the winter and summer tires in the summer in Estonia as well.
The tire compound varies, and this affects the traction and mileage of the truck. The condition of tires is the first sign about the condition of the chassis of the truck/trailer. Abnormal wear is usually not caused by the tires themselves, but as a weaker component they express the condition of chassis first. It is important to send the tires to re-manufacturing on time when their casings can still be used.
