In the current market, many car owners choose small wheels when buying industrial and agricultural tires and ATVs. So why is there such a phenomenon?
It is true that large wheels also have advantages to a certain extent, but in many cases, the advantages of small wheels will be more obvious.
1. Better comfort
Compared with large wheels, small wheels perform better in terms of driving and riding comfort and tire noise. The smaller the size of the wheel hub, the higher the size of the sidewall of the tire, and accordingly the better the cushioning effect the tire can provide.
2. Lower fuel consumption
For the same model, small-size wheels can often provide smaller tire widths, and smaller tire widths will inevitably bring lower fuel consumption, which is essential for long-term use.
3. Lower risk
The sidewall of the tires of large wheels is destined to be lower than that of small wheels, which means “thin” in colloquial terms, which means that you have to be extra careful when passing non-paved roads, potholes, or even manhole covers. It is easily damaged , The probability of a puncture is much higher than that of a small wheel.
