What are the tire size and specifications for the Elantra?
1 Answers
The tire size and specification models for the Hyundai Elantra are: 205/55-R16 and 225/45-R17. Here are the relevant details: 1. Tire model markings: Tire model markings mostly appear as: 215/70R15. The meanings of these numbers are: 215 represents the tire section width in millimeters, generally ranging between 145-285mm in increments of 10mm; 70 is the aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the tire sidewall height to the tire section width, with 70 representing 70%. Generally, tire aspect ratios range between 30%-80%. Normally, ordinary sedans should not use tires with an aspect ratio >75%, while luxury cars and high-performance sports cars are recommended to use tires with an aspect ratio <60%; R is the abbreviation for Radial, indicating the tire has a radial structure, and 15 is the rim diameter in inches. 2. Bias tire markings: If a tire is marked as: 6.00-12, this indicates it is not a radial tire but a bias tire. Such tires are rarely seen on passenger cars today. Due to their poor safety, load capacity, and high-speed stability, they are only used in some low-end off-road vehicles and heavy-duty trucks.
