Where should tires not contact in a vehicle?

Tires should not contact the body of the vehicle because ensuring a proper clearance between the tires and the body is critical for both safety and functionality. When tires make contact with the body, it can cause significant wear and tear on the tires and may lead to damage to the vehicle's body panels. Additionally, tire rubbing against the body can create issues such as diminished handling, compromised stability, and potential failure in critical driving situations.

Proper tire clearance is necessary for the tires to perform effectively, particularly during turns and when the suspension compresses. Allowing sufficient space also helps prevent debris buildup and ensures that any road water or mud does not contribute to corrosion or rust on the vehicle's body.
