Tire fitting. Professional tire fitting.

What is tire fitting

Nowadays, almost all car owners know about tire fitting. Typically, this set of maintenance activities includes: mounting and dismantling of car and truck tires, 3D balancing, seasonal tire replacement. We can say that tire fitting is a certain sequence of actions, which includes:
- wheel removal;
— wheel cleaning;
— dismantling of old rubber;
- checking autodisks for geometry;
- replacement of old valves with new ones;
- installation of new tires or wheel assemblies;
- balancing;
- pressure test.

In a car, tires need the closest attention and thorough care, because the reliable contact of the car with the road depends on the tires and, in fact, the safety of the driver and passengers depends on the condition of the tires. Tire fitting services are offered by many automotive technical centers, but to get a really high-quality service, you should contact a professional center equipped with modern equipment. How are cars serviced in a professional center?

1. The car is placed either on a special tire lift or it is lifted on modern jacks.

2. Bolts are loosened using modern pneumatic equipment.

3. The wheels are washed in a special washer.

4. Tire fitting works are carried out on modern automatic or semi-automatic machines, on which the possibility of damage to the disk or tire is completely excluded.

5. The wheels are also balanced on modern equipment, which ensures the highest precision.

6. The hub is treated to prevent corrosion.

7. All wheel bolts are tightened with a modern torque wrench.

8. If necessary, they will help you initialize the tire pressure sensor.

All this time the client can spend in a special lounge, his presence near the car is not required.

Components of professional tire fitting

Modern tire fitting is based on reliability, quality, and efficiency.
1. The professionalism of the workers is the most important component of the entire operation, because the human factor always plays a significant role, even when using the latest equipment.
2. Equipment quality. Innovative technologies are constantly being introduced into this area, making the tire fitting process more accurate and faster.
3. Quality of consumables.

Professional equipment

Professional equipment allows you to work with all types of tires. Responsible professional tire fitting on modern specialized equipment of well-known brands does not spoil them.

When replacing tires, measures to correct wheel imbalance are of great importance. The result of non-technologically carried out balancing will be beats that are transmitted to the steering wheel at a specific speed limit of the car. The use of modern devices during operation protects the disk from getting defects during the procedure, allowing you to greatly improve the accuracy of balancing.

Imbalance is not just a deterioration in driving comfort. This condition reduces the life of the vehicle's wheel bearings and suspension parts. These issues are becoming a priority for a number of reasons:
- ever-increasing speed of movement;
- equipment with rack and pinion steering mechanisms;
- reduction in the weight of the disks;
- using low-profile tires.

Conclusion

Professional tire fitting requires experience and high qualification of workers and modern equipment. The ideal service option is a 24-hour tire service. If the equipment is inferior or, even worse, defective, the accuracy of balancing is greatly reduced, which can lead to a new occurrence of the same problems that the driver has already contacted for repair.

Due to an unprofessional attitude to the matter, the following may appear:
- rupture of the tire bead,
- the appearance of damage to the disk;
- disk damage by weights;
- incorrect tire installation, etc.

    Tire training | Tire fitting courses

    Tire fitting courses are in high demand, as are tire fitters themselves (tire fitters). Individual specialists are increasingly required for straightening and rolling discs, changing tires, and repairing them.

    Universal tire fitters and tire fitters who know how to find an approach not only to cars, but also commercial vehicles, including special equipment, buses, "heavyweights" - trucks, road trains, tractors, are especially valued.

    Tire fitting services are relevant in a variety of situations, for example:

    • A tire has been punctured.
    • Tire "makes friends" with a nail or other sharp object.
    • Uneven tire wear detected.
    • Worried about tire imbalance.
    • It is necessary to straighten cast or steel rims, seal the rim sides.

    Common mistakes in tire fitting and balancing

    Responsible training in tire fitting and balancing helps to avoid a number of errors, among them:

    • Incorrect vehicle lifting.
    • Error 1. One powerful rolling jack is used ... and the geometry of the car changes. Security and manageability are at risk.
    • Mistake 2. Two regular rhombic jacks are used. Synchronizing their work is unrealistic. But to “kill” both the lifting equipment and the vehicle at once in this way is elementary. Common breakdowns of equipment in this case are “demolished” steps, and the wings and thresholds of a car can simply “fly”.
    • Tire markings. It's no secret that according to tire fitting technology, it is impossible to rearrange not only the rear and front tires, but also the left and right tires. This is due to the fact that the old rubber has already formed the so-called "run-in" contact spots with the roadway. If the contact patches are broken, riding becomes unsafe. But inexperienced tire fitters or those who are in a hurry and do not attach importance to this detail often, alas, ignore this point.
    • Wrong inflation pressure. You can not bother and download the "dvoechka" on any wheels. But this is a very unprofessional tactic. Each vehicle has its own wheel inflation scheme. Most often, it is indicated by the manufacturer on the gas tank flap. By the way, an under-inflated rather than an over-inflated tire is the most dangerous, since it is a low-pressure tire that is most vulnerable to punctures, it bulges and becomes a kind of “magnet” for nails and other objects with a sharp “character” that may meet on the way.
    • Use of poorly calibrated machines. Even if the load on the balancing equipment in the workshop is not very high, it is recommended to calibrate the machines at least once a season. If the loads are serious, then the calibration frequency should be increased altogether. If calibration is not performed, accuracy, and hence the proper result when performing tire fitting work, should not be expected.

    Ideally, a specialist who has undergone comprehensive training in tire fitting and wheel balancing should have the following things bounce off their “teeth”:
