Remember this!
Wheels and tires are both essential components of a vehicle, but they serve different functions. Wheels support and move a vehicle, while tires provide traction and absorb shock. While wheels are typically made of metal and come in various sizes, tires are made of rubber and have a rounded shape with a tread pattern. Regular maintenance and replacement of tires are necessary for optimal vehicle performance and safety.
