What are vehicle tyres?
A tire (North American English) or tyre (Commonwealth English) is a ring-shaped component that surrounds a wheel’s rim to transfer a vehicle’s load from the axle through the wheel to the ground and to provide traction on the surface over which the wheel travels. Tire is the preferred term in American English, while tyre is favored in British English and in many Commonwealth countries. Understanding these differences is crucial for proper usage in written and spoken language, ensuring both clarity and regional appropriateness.
