We know that the wheel size of each model is different. The low-end model is the smallest, the high-end model is the largest, and some models do not have this rule, but most of them are incremental. For example, the diameter of the low-end model is 17 inch alloy wheels, and the middle model It may be 18 inches, and the high profile may be 19 inch alloy wheels. Different sizes of tires have different effects. So what’s the difference between a big wheel and a small wheel?
First of all, from the appearance, it will be found that the body with large wheels will look more atmospheric and sporty, especially for some cars. And the larger the wheel hub, the higher the stability of driving, especially when driving at high speed, the driver will feel that the body is very stable in the car, and there will be no feeling of floating.
But big wheels also have their downsides. Although the driving is more stable, the tire noise of the car will also become very large at the same time, especially when driving on high-speed roads, the tire noise will become especially obvious. Feelings can get really bad.
Smaller size tires are generally used in family cars. Because the owners of family cars are the same, the car can be more fuel-efficient, and the small car tires can better release the power, thereby reducing the fuel consumption of the car, and for some owners who pursue comfort and quietness, the tire noise is naturally better than Cars with big wheels are smaller. Of course, small wheels also have some disadvantages, that is, the braking performance is relatively poor, and the stability of the tires is not as good as that of large tires. Therefore, when braking under extreme conditions, the safety of small wheels is far less than that of large wheels.
