Do you need to replace all 4 tires at once if only one or two are bad?

Image
Here is a story shared in forum: I have an AWD Nissan Murano and got a flat tire that cannot be repaired. I called a Repair Shop and they told me because it was AWD I had to replace all 4 at the same time even though 3 tires are perfectly fine and only have 17,000 miles on them. Is he correct? The answer to this question really depends on your car. 1.For front-wheel-drive or rear-wheel drive cars like BMW 3 series or Toyota crown , these don't necessarily need to have all four tires replaced at once. Usually two at a time is sufficient. 2.But all-wheel-drive systems are becoming more popular, and they do require all four tires to be replaced at one time. So for AWD vehicles,like Honda CR-V ,the short answer is yes. For his case,we suggest him replace all tires at once . Why two-wheel-drive cars need to replace two tires at a time but for AWD vehicles need to replace all four tires ? On a front- or rear-wheel-drive vehicle, if half or more of the tre...

Wheel Spacers VS Wheel Adapters : What is the difference ?

Image
Many people thought wheel spacers and wheels adapters are identical.But in fact,they are two different things. Every wheel adapter is also a wheel spacer. But a wheel spacer is not a wheel adapter. Read here, someone may be confused and ask what is the difference between wheel spacers and adapters ? We did a search on prime and asked some mechanics for help.Now ,let us explain this issue. What’s wheel spacers and wheel adapters ? Wheel spacer is a term used to describe a disc that pushes a wheel away from the hub, hence lowering the offset at which it is. A wheel adapter is usually a spacer of sorts, however a change in bolt pattern (and possibly center bore) occurs in the process. For example a common use  for wheel adapters is on older VW Jetta's and GTI's. People will put a wheel adapter on these cars that have a 4x100 bolt pattern on the hub side (that will bolt on the car's factory studs)and the wheel side of the adaptor will have studs on it in a 5x130 bolt patt...

Semi Metallic ,NAO, Low-Metallic NAO ,Ceramic And Sintered Brake Pads :What’s the advantage and disadvantage and how to chose correct material brake pads ?

Image
 Car Brake pads are the most critical safety parts, in the car's braking system.Whether the braking effect is good nor not,brake pads play an important role. The brake pads generally are made out from the steel plate, bonding insulation layer and friction block, which is composed of non-heat transfer material, the purpose is to heat. Friction block from the friction material, adhesive composition, the brake was squeezed in the brake disc or brake drum on the friction, so as to achieve the purpose of vehicle braking. Due to friction, the friction block will gradually be worn, in general, the lower the cost of the brake pads ,wear faster. After the use of friction materials ,it’s necessary to replace the brake pads in time, otherwise the steel plate will be in direct contacted with the brake disc ,and then ultimately lose the braking effect and cause damage to the brake disc. If it's time to replace the brake pads on your vehicle, it's necessary to know what type ...

Winter in coming ,we will say good bye to 2017 and welcome 2018 soon. So what is the most popular UTV in 2017 and the most promising UTV in 2018 ? Let me introduce the following two models . 2017 Polaris RZR S 1000 EPS Building upon the already impressive line of available RZR models, the 2017 Polaris RZR S 1000 EPS helps fill a necessary void often overlooked in the current market. While doing so, the RZR does it's best to play an interesting numbers game. In the northeast where I hang my helmet, most of the wheeling we do involves tight tree-filled trails, rocks, ruts, roots, mud, and seemingly ever-changing trail conditions. The RZR S 1000 EPS is wide enough to provide excellent stability, but not so wide that it can only negotiate trails meant to handle Jeeps. To put it in perspective, the RZR S 1000 EPS is 60" wide with a 79" wheelbase. The bigger brother RZR XP chassis is 64" wide, but the wheelbase is stretched out to 90". This gives t...
