Chevrolet Camaro Z11 Tires

Hi there, as you may know i like the Chevrolet Camaro Z11 and today I’m going to tell you about the geography of the car tires. Pneumatic tires are tires that are made relative to the size of the vehicle. For example the tires on a smart car are tiny compared to the size of the tires to a GMC. There is over 450 different tire manufacturers worldwide and over 1 billion tires produced a year there is a large need for rubber (which is a main component to the process of making tires). Tire companies start with raw materials such as natural rubber and carbon black. Rubber comes from many natural organisms in the world. Natural rubber comes from the bark of a tree and is called latex. Carbon Black comes from the combustion of latex. These two main things are the main necessities for car tires. Rubber has the advantage of being naturally flexible and stretchy which means that the tire can take lots of impact and a smoother ride. Rubber also has lots of friction between itself and a road. A tire is also black because of the carbon black. The design of the rubber will affect the amount of friction and stopping power the car will have. Major companies are always trying to improve the design of the rubber to improve stopping power.
