  • What You Need to Know About Mounting Radial Tires on Classic Vehicle Rims
    What You Need to Know About Mounting Radial Tires on Classic Vehicle Rims Over the past 100 years, tires, and the wheels that support them, have gone through significant changes as a result of technical innovations in design, technology and materials. No single factor affects the handling and safety of a car’s ride more than the tire and the wheel it is mounted on and how the two work together as a unit. One nagging question that has been the subject of a lot of anecdotal evidence, speculation, and even more widespread rumor is whether rims designed for Bias ply tires can handle the stresses placed on them by Radial ply tires. And the answer is - it depends. It depends on how the rim was originally designed and built as well as whether the rim has few enough cycles on it, and how it has been driven. But most importantly it depends upon the construction of the tire and how it transmits the vehicle's load to where the rubber meets the road. In this paper, we want to educate you on the facts - not the wives tales or just plain bad information - about how Bias and Radial tires differ in working with the rim to provide a safe ride. Why is there a possible rim concern between Radial and Bias Tires? The fitting of radial tires, to wheels and rims originally designed for bias tires, is an application that may result in rim durability issues. Even same-sized bias and radial tires stress a rim differently, despite their nearly identical dimensions.

  • Correct Tires for 1953-82 Corvettes

Finding an original NOS (New Old Stock) tire or, T heaven forbid, a full set of four plus a spare for some early Corvettes can be next to impossible, even with the internet and the vast number of parts ads in many ma- jor magazines. There are still some original tires out there, with these tires usually be- ing found in old tire warehouses or stumbled upon when a large car parts collection is liq- uidated. In either case, the sometimes-long search can be quite frustrating.

  • Hydroplaning Analysis for Tire Rolling Over Water Film with Various Thicknesses Using the LS-DYNA Fluid-Structure Interactive Scheme
    Copyright © 2009 Tech Science Press CMC, vol.11, no.1, pp.33-58, 2009 Hydroplaning Analysis for Tire Rolling over Water Film with Various Thicknesses Using the LS-DYNA Fluid-Structure Interactive Scheme Syh-Tsang Jenq1;2 and Yuen-Sheng Chiu2 Abstract: Current work studies the transient hydroplaning behavior of 200 kPa inflated pneumatic radial tires with various types of tread patterns. Tires were nu- merically loaded with a quarter car weight of 4 kN, and then accelerated from rest rolling over a water film with a thickness of 5, 10 and 15 mm on top of a flat pavement. Tire structure is composed of outer rubber tread and inner fiber rein- forcing composite layers. The Mooney-Rivlin constitutive law and the classical laminated theory (CLT) were, respectively, used to describe the mechanical be- havior of rubber material and composite reinforcing layers. The tire hydroplaning phenomenon was analyzed by the commercial finite element code - LS-DYNA. The Arbitrary Lagrangian & Eulerian (ALE) formulation was adopted to depict the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) behavior. Three different tire tread patterns, i.e. the smooth (blank) tread pattern and the 9 and 18 mm wide longitudinally-grooved tread patterns, were constructed to perform the current transient hydroplaning anal- ysis. Simulated dynamic normal contact force and hydroplaning velocity of tire with a prescribed smooth tread pattern were obtained. The computed results were in good agreement with the numerical and test results given by Okano, et al. (2001) for tire running over 10 mm thick water fluid film. In addition, dynamic contact force of a smooth tread pattern tire rolling on a dry flat pavement was also found to be close to the result reported by Nakajima, et al.

The information included in this Data Book has been put together as an engineering and technical reference to support the users of Michelin tires. The data is, to the best of our knowledge, accurate and complete at the time of publication. To be as useful a reference tool as possible, we have chosen to include data on as many industry tire sizes as possible. Particular sizes may not be currently available from Michelin. It is advised that all critical data be verified with your Michelin representative prior to making final tire selections. The data contained herein should be used in conjunction with the various standards ; T&RA1, ETRTO2, MIL-PRF- 50413, AIR 8505 - A4 or with the airframer specifications or military design drawings. For those instances where a contradiction exists between T&RA and ETRTO, the T&RA standard has been referenced. In some cases, a tire is used for both civil and military applications. In most cases they follow the same standard. Where they do not, data for both tires are listed and identified. The aircraft application information provided in the tables is based on the most current information supplied by airframe manufacturers and/or contained in published documents. It is intended for use as general reference only. Your requirements may vary depending on the actual configuration of your aircraft. Accordingly, inquiries regarding specific models of aircraft should be directed to the applicable airframe manufacturer.

  • Analysis of Influencing Factors of Tire Hydroplaning

Date of publication (dd/mm/yyyy): 05/04/2021 Abstract – In order to study the influencing factors of tire hydroplaning performance on wet roads, the 205/55 R16 radial tire is used as the research object, and the finite element method is used to simulate the hydroplaning process of the tire. First, the tire finite element model is established, and then the “tire-water-road” finite element model is established using the CEL method to study the influence of water film thickness, vehicle speed, vertical load and tire pressure on tire hydroplaning performance. The results show that the road contact force and road contact area decrease with the increase of water film thickness and speed, and increase with the increase of vertical load and tire pressure. Appropriately reducing the speed and increasing the inflating pressure are helpful to driving safely in rainy weather. Keywords – Tire Hydroplaning, Coupled Euler-Lagrange (CEL), Wet Road, Radial Tire. I. INTRODUCTION The performance of safe driving on wet roads is the basic requirement for tires. Studies have shown that [1- 3], about 20% of road accidents occur in wet weather conditions, and tire hydroplaning is the main cause of accidents.

  • Tire Tread Depth and Wet Traction – a Review
    A Crain Communications Event 1725 Merriman Road * Akron, Ohio 44313-9006 Phone: 330.836.9180 * Fax: 330.836.1005 * www.rubbernews.com ITEC 2014 Paper W-4 All papers owned and copyrighted by Crain Communications, Inc. Reprint only with permission Tire Tread Depth and Wet Traction – A Review W. Blythe William Blythe, Inc. Palo Alto, California Introduction The relationship of tire tread depth to wet traction has been a subject of technical research and discussion since at least the mid 1960s. Now, nearly 50 years on, these discussions continue, and disagreements regarding the importance of improving wet traction also continue. During this time, bias-ply tires have been replaced by radial construction and, in the USA, highway speeds have increased; miles driven have approximately tripled. This Paper reviews research that strongly suggests an increase in minimum tire tread depth requirements would significantly and positively affect highway safety. Historical Data Radial tire wet frictional performance is compared to bias-ply tire performance in Figure 1, taken from [1], a 1967 Paper. Since radial tires comprise almost all passenger car tires in use, any conclusions relating to tire performance based upon bias-ply tires probably no longer are valid. In these braking tests of fully-treaded tires, water depth was controlled at ¼ inch. As an example of increased highway speeds, posted speed limits of 70 mph on “Interstate System and non-interstate system routes” changed in the USA from zero miles so posted in 1994 to 40,897 miles in 2000.
