Ukushintsha amathayi kuyinto bonke abanikazi bezimoto abazohlangana nayo lapho besebenzisa izimoto zabo. Lena inqubo evamile yokulungisa izimoto, kodwa ibaluleke kakhulu ekuphepheni kwethu ukushayela.

Ngakho-ke yini okudingeka uyinake lapho ushintsha amathayi ukuze ugweme izinkinga ezingadingekile? Ake sixoxe ngezinye iziqondiso zokushintsha amathayi.

1. Ungalingi Usayizi Wethayi Kahle

Ukuqinisekisa usayizi wethayi kuyisinyathelo sokuqala sokwenza umsebenzi. Amapharamitha athile aleli thayi aqoshwe eceleni kwethayi. Ungakhetha ithayi elisha elinobukhulu obufanayo ngokwemingcele yethayi lokuqala.

Amasondo ezimoto ngokuvamile asebenzisa amathayi e-radial. Imininingwane yamathayi e-radial ifaka ububanzi, isilinganiso sesici, ububanzi bangaphakathi kanye nophawu lomkhawulo wejubane.

Thatha isithombe esingenhla njengesibonelo. Imininingwane yalo yethayi ingu-195/55 R16 87V, okusho ukuthi ububanzi obuphakathi kwezinhlangothi ezimbili zethayi bungu-195 mm, u-55 usho isilinganiso sesici, kanti u-“R” umele igama elithi RADIAL, okusho ukuthi ithayi eliyi-radial. U-16 ububanzi bangaphakathi bethayi, obulinganiswa ngamasentimitha. U-87 ubonisa umthamo womthwalo wethayi, olingana namakhilogremu angu-1201. Amanye amathayi nawo aphawulwe ngezimpawu zomkhawulo wejubane, kusetshenziswa u-P, R, S, T, H, V, Z kanye nezinye izinhlamvu ukumela inani ngalinye lomkhawulo wejubane. U-V usho ukuthi ijubane elikhulu lingu-240km/h (150MPH)

2. Faka Ithayi Kahle

Kulezi zinsuku, amaphethini amaningi amathayi awalingani noma awaqondi. Ngakho-ke kunenkinga yokuqondiswa lapho kufakwa amathayi. Isibonelo, ithayi elingalingani lizohlukaniswa ngamaphethini angaphakathi nangaphandle, ngakho-ke uma izinhlangothi zangaphakathi nezangaphandle ziphenduka, ukusebenza kwethayi akukuhle kakhulu.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, amanye amathayi anomhlahlandlela owodwa – okungukuthi, indlela yokujikeleza icacisiwe. Uma ubuyisela emuva ukufakwa, kungase kungabi yinkinga uma sivula ngokujwayelekile, kodwa uma kunesimo sendawo enamanzi, ukusebenza kwawo kokukhipha amanzi ngeke kukwazi ukudlala ngokugcwele. Uma ithayi lisebenzisa iphethini elilinganayo nelingahambisani nelilodwa, awudingi ukucabangela ingaphakathi nengaphandle, vele ulifake ngokuthanda kwakho.

3. Ingabe Zonke Izinhlobo Zamathayi Kufanele Zifane?

Ngokuvamile sizobhekana nalesi simo lapho ithayi elilodwa lidinga ukushintshwa, kodwa amanye amathathu awadingi ukushintshwa. Bese othile ebuza, “Uma iphethini yethayi lami elidinga ukushintshwa ihlukile kwamanye amaphethini amathathu, ingabe izothinta ukushayela?”
Ngokuvamile, uma nje izinga lokubamba (okungukuthi ukudonsa) kwethayi olishintshayo lifana nethayi lakho lokuqala, kunethuba elikhulu lokuthi ngeke kube khona ukushayisana. Kodwa into eyodwa okufanele uyiqaphele ukuthi esimweni sezulu esinemvula, amathayi anemiklamo namaphethini ahlukene azoba nokusebenza okuhlukile kokukhipha amanzi kanye nokubamba okuhlukile emhlabathini omanzi. Ngakho-ke uma ubhuleka, kungenzeka ukuthi amasondo akho angakwesobunxele nakwesokudla angabamba okuhlukile. Ngakho-ke, kungadingeka ukuthi ubhuleke ibanga elide lokubhuleka ezinsukwini zemvula.

4. Uzizwa Kahle Ngesiteringi Ngemva Kokushintsha Amathayi?

Abanye abantu banomuzwa wokuthi isiteringi siba lula ngokuzumayo ngemva kokushintsha amathayi. Ingabe kukhona okungahambi kahle?
Cha impela! Ngoba ubuso bethayi busabushelelezi kakhulu uma ithayi lisanda kufakwa, alikwazi ukuxhumana ngokwanele nomgwaqo, ngakho-ke akukho ukumelana okuningi kwesiteringi esivame ukushayela. Kodwa uma ithayi lakho lisetshenziswa futhi i-tread yalo isigugile, ukuxhumana kwalo nomgwaqo kuzoba lukhuni, futhi umuzwa wokuqondisa ojwayelekile uzobuya.

5. Ukucindezeleka Kwamathayi Okulungile Kubalulekile

Siyazi ukuthi uma ingcindezi yethayi iphansi, kulapho uhambo luzokhululeka khona; uma ingcindezi yethayi iphakeme, kuzoba nezimbobo eziningi. Kukhona nabantu abakhathazeka ngokuthi ingcindezi yethayi ephezulu kakhulu ingabangela ukubhoboka kalula, kodwa empeleni, zonke izimo zibonisa ukuthi uma imoto ibhoboka ngenxa yengcindezi yethayi, kungenzeka kuphela ngoba ingcindezi yethayi iphansi kakhulu futhi ayiphakeme kakhulu. Ngoba ingcindezi ithayi lemoto elingayimela okungenani ingaphezulu kathathu, noma ngabe ushaye ku-2.4-2.5bar, noma ku-3.0bar, ithayi ngeke liqhume.
Uma ushayela edolobheni, umfutho wamathayi onconywayo uphakathi kwamabha angu-2.2-2.4. Uma udinga ukushayela emgwaqweni omkhulu futhi ijubane kulindeleke ukuthi lisheshe, ungafinyelela kumabha angu-2.4-2.5 esimweni sethayi esibandayo, ngakho akudingeki ukhathazeke ngomfutho wamathayi ophansi kanye nokubhoboka kwawo lapho ugijima ngesivinini esikhulu.
