Question 688 in the bank

Wheels that are installed on the same axle must be:

  1. Of the same manufacture date always.
  2. Correct answer: Of the same size and in compliance with the manufacturer’s manual.
  3. Of the same color.
  4. Of the same manufacturer.

Why this is the answer

The correct answer in the official bank: Of the same size and in compliance with the manufacturer’s manual.

Wheels on the same axle must be the same size and match what the vehicle manufacturer specifies. Different sizes on one axle turn at different rates, which can make the vehicle pull to one side, weaken braking and stability, and cause extra wear. Having the same manufacture date, the same maker or the same colour is not a requirement.
