The Comprehensive Guide on Tyre Index & Its Importance

The tyre load index is a code mentioned on a tyre sidewall that indicates the maximum load a tyre can carry at a maximum speed. A correctly inflated tyre to the recommended air pressure can only carry a load up to a certain weight. If your cheap tyres Warwick are overloaded, it can reduce the performance and can easily get worn out. It also reduces the lifespan of your car tyres.
