The Tayron is equipped with Dunlop SPSPORTMAXX050 tires. Here are the relevant details about the Tayron: 1. Body dimensions: The Tayron is a vehicle under FAW-Volkswagen, with dimensions of 4589mm in length, 1860mm in width, and 1660mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2731mm. 2. Engine: The Tayron comes with three engine options: a 1.4L turbocharged engine, a low-power version of the 2.0L turbocharged engine, and a high-power version of the 2.0L turbocharged engine. The 1.4L turbocharged engine delivers 150 horsepower and a maximum torque of 250 Nm; the low-power 2.0L turbocharged engine produces 186 horsepower and a maximum torque of 320 Nm; the high-power 2.0L turbocharged engine generates 220 horsepower and a maximum torque of 350 Nm.
When I first bought my Tayron, it came with Hankook tires, specifically the Hankook Ventus S1 evo² SUV model, in the size 225/55 R18. After using these tires for over two years, I found them quite durable. They perform steadily on both city roads and highways, with good grip, especially on wet surfaces during the rainy season—no issues at all. Tire brands significantly impact safety, so I regularly check the tire pressure, keeping it around 2.3-2.5 bar to avoid uneven wear or the risk of a blowout. When it was time to replace them, I compared Dunlop and Bridgestone options. Although the original tires are a bit more expensive, they offer better compatibility and maintain the car's original handling. I’d advise new owners not to rush into upgrades; stick with the original tires first and switch to more economical brands only when they wear out.
