Can a sedan's 195 tires be replaced with 205 tires?
1 Answers
Sedan 195 tires cannot be replaced with 205 tires. Forcibly replacing them may lead to the following issues: 1. Increased fuel consumption. 2. Increased friction resistance: Due to the heightened (or widened) friction resistance, more kinetic energy transmission is required, causing the engine to operate under "overload" conditions for extended periods, accelerating the wear of engine components, and potentially leading to premature wear intensification, damage, or even scrapping. 3. Abnormal instrument display: Changes in speed rating may cause inaccurate display parameters on the instrument panel, leading to various safety or regulatory violations. 4. Brake system damage: Under the original brake system conditions, the effective braking distance may become longer, and the heat generated by the brake system may increase sharply, resulting in early wear and damage to components, as well as introducing more safety hazards due to the extended effective braking distance.
