TIRES topTire is a ring-shaped covering that fits around a wheel rim to protect it. It enables better vehicle performance by providing a flexible cushion that absorbs shock while keeping the wheel in close contact with the ground. The fundamental materials of modern tires are synthetic rubber, natural rubber, fabric and wire, along with other compound chemicals.

TIRE FLAPS AND TUBES topTube – The inner tube is a flexible, airtight rubber casing that holds the air inside tube-type tires. It maintains air pressure and provides cushioning, ensuring a smooth ride. Tubes are commonly used in heavy-duty vehicles, motorcycles, and bicycles.
Flap – A protective rubber lining placed between the tube and the rim, the flap prevents direct contact with the metal rim and shields the tube from damage caused by friction or sharp edges. It helps extend the life of the tube by reducing wear and tear. |

TIRE RIMS topThe rim is the outer edge of a wheel, holding the tire.
It makes up the outer circular design of the wheel on which the inside edge of the tire is mounted on vehicles. It is important to get the right size of rims. Rims that are too big increases rigidity due to more metal content, thus reducing the wheel's ability to absorb shock. While having a small rim reduces rigidity due to more rubber and air content, thus reducing the stability of the ride.
