Question 3404
Can an excessive vehicle load affect the proper functioning of the tires?
- No, under no circumstances.
- Yes, when the permitted load limits are exceeded.
- No, if the vehicle has new shock absorbers.
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: Yes, when the permitted load limits are exceeded.
Exceeding the permitted load causes tires to flex more and become hotter, impairing their performance. You must therefore observe load limits.
