The original tires on the Baojun 510 are 205/60R16 Kumho tires. Kumho tires cover multiple categories including passenger car tires, commercial vehicle tires, and high-tech tires. The Baojun 510 is a compact SUV with body dimensions of 4220mm in length, 1740mm in width, and 1625mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2550mm. The Baojun 510 is equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine across all variants, delivering a maximum power of 77 kW at 5600 rpm and a maximum torque between 3600 to 5200 rpm.

When I first got my hands on the Baojun 510, I did some research. The original tires were usually Linglong brand, mostly sized 205/60R16. Linglong is a Chinese brand, affordable yet reliable in quality. They're pretty quiet driving around the city, but on the highway, the noise is a bit louder though still manageable. Tires are like the shoes of a car—safety depends on them. I always nag about checking tire pressure, measuring it every three months to avoid leaks or wear. After changing to new tires, I also tried other brands like Giti and Maxxis, both of which are great, with noticeable noise reduction after upgrading. The original Linglong tires are cost-effective and sufficient, but after driving for a while, I noticed the sidewalls wear easily, so I recommend replacing them every two to three years. Well-maintained tires save fuel and ensure safety, especially making rainy-day driving more secure.

I remember when I bought the Baojun 510, the salesperson said the original tires were Linglong. After using them for over a year, they've performed quite well. The tire size is 205/60R16, offering low noise during daily driving and good grip when climbing hills without any slipping. As a budget-conscious young person, Linglong tires are affordable to replace, costing around 500 yuan each, which is hassle-free. Before long trips, I always check the tread depth to avoid any mishaps. Although the original brand isn't as durable as international big names, it's sufficient for city driving. If I were to upgrade, I'd consider comfort-focused brands like Bridgestone, but I'd make sure to match the size properly without random modifications. Tire maintenance is key—I check the tire pressure monthly to ensure smooth and safe driving.

My car repair experience tells me that the Baojun 510 often comes with Linglong brand tires as original equipment, commonly in size 215/55R17. Linglong, a domestic brand, offers good cost performance but has a relatively shorter lifespan, possibly requiring replacement after 20,000 to 30,000 kilometers. Common issues include unstable tire pressure or sidewall cracks, so I always remind owners to perform regular maintenance. Professional inspection every six months can prevent blowout risks; choosing the correct size during replacement is crucial, as incorrect sizing affects handling. Tires are the cornerstone of safety, so I recommend using original Linglong tires for proper break-in before considering upgrading to premium brands.
