What brand of tires does the 14th-generation Sylphy use?
2 Answers
The 14th-generation Sylphy comes with Dunlop tires as original equipment. Below is a detailed introduction about car tires: 1. Types of tires: Pneumatic tires are divided into two types based on their structure: tube tires and tubeless tires. Passenger cars commonly use tubeless tires. Depending on the arrangement of the internal cord layers and buffer layers, tires can also be categorized into radial tires and bias-ply tires. Radial tires are widely used in automobiles. The sidewalls of the tires are marked accordingly. 2. Functions of tires: Tires are in direct contact with the road surface and, together with the car's suspension, help to absorb shocks encountered during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness. They also ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, improving the car's traction, braking, and off-road capabilities. Additionally, they bear the weight of the car.
I drive the top-of-the-line 14th-generation Nissan Sylphy, equipped with Bridgestone TURANZA series tires, model T005A if I remember correctly. This brand is quite common on Nissan vehicles, offering exceptionally quiet and comfortable driving, especially with excellent shock absorption in urban conditions. I regularly check tire pressure, adjusting it to around 30 psi in summer to prevent overheating and blowouts, while increasing it slightly in winter. The tires typically last about 40,000 kilometers and should be replaced when worn down to the tread wear indicators. Nissan opts for Bridgestone mainly for their strong wet-road traction and high safety ratings. However, different production batches might switch to Dunlop or Yokohama tires. My advice is not to skimp when replacing tires—sticking with the original brand ensures better compatibility.
