According to the specifications of the tires, 195 tires cannot be replaced with 205 tires. The numbers 195 and 205 represent the cross-sectional width of the tires. 195 means the tire width is 195 millimeters, while 205 means the tire width is 205 millimeters. This is because each wheel rim width has a corresponding range of suitable tire widths. The increase in contact area will undoubtedly lead to a higher friction coefficient, which can affect the vehicle's fuel economy and even result in more noise at high speeds. To achieve more balanced tire performance, it is best to choose the optimal tire width corresponding to the wheel rim. Increasing the tire width alters the tire size, which may cause issues during annual inspections and could lead to unnecessary risks related to vehicle modifications, such as inaccurate speed and mileage readings, unstable ESP, etc. It is recommended to have tire specification changes and installations performed by professionals and, if necessary, consult the vehicle manufacturer regarding relevant laws and regulations. In addition to the model, tires also display the following common data: Tire carcass cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, and ZG for steel radial cord tires. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings ranging from 4.8 km/h to 300 km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160 km/h; H: 210 km/h; V: 240 km/h; W: 270 km/h; Y: 300 km/h. Rim specification: Indicates the rim size compatible with the tire for practical use, e.g., standard rim 5.00F.

To what level should the car coolant be filled?

Automobile coolant should be filled between the MAX and MIN level marks. Below are the specific reasons for coolant warnings: 1. A coolant warning generally indicates a coolant deficiency, such as when the vehicle is parked overnight and the coolant warning appears upon starting the next morning. In this case, check the vehicle's chassis for any traces of antifreeze. If there are signs, it means there is a leak in the coolant system that needs repair. If there is no leak, simply replenishing the antifreeze should resolve the issue. 2. If the coolant warning suddenly appears during high-speed driving, it is often accompanied by a water temperature warning. This situation usually indicates a problem with the engine's cooling system, such as: damaged water pump impeller preventing proper coolant circulation, malfunctioning radiator fan, or clogged radiator condenser surface leading to poor heat dissipation, all of which can trigger the coolant warning light.
