Except for the top version, all Bin Yue models use Linglong tires, while the top version is equipped with Continental tires. There are two specifications: one is 215/60R17, used in the 1.0T models and the lowest-equipped Hunter version of the 1.5T, with the original tire brand being Linglong and the tread pattern: GREEN-MAX-4X4-HP. The second specification is 215/55R18, Continental, used in the top version. Tires are circular elastic rubber products assembled on various vehicles or machinery to roll on the ground, usually mounted on metal rims. They support the vehicle body, cushion external impacts, ensure contact with the road surface, and guarantee the vehicle's driving performance. The replacement cycle for tires is generally 2-3 years or after driving 60,000-100,000 kilometers. Different brands may have slightly different lifespan regulations due to varying requirements for tires. However, relying solely on a numerical value to determine replacement time is insufficient; the actual condition of the tires must be considered. There are many factors affecting tires, and if any of the following situations occur, it indicates a safety hazard, and the tires should be replaced promptly. Almost every tire has a wear indicator. Generally, the wear indicator height for passenger car tires is 1.6 millimeters (this height is also the legal minimum groove depth), while for load-bearing tires, it is 2.4 millimeters. If the wear indicator is flush with the tread, it means the tire is significantly worn and should be replaced promptly. A bulging tire indicates that the internal cords have broken and cannot be restored through repair, necessitating immediate replacement to avoid safety hazards. If the puncture hole from a nail is too large or the tire has been repaired too many times, it can directly affect driving safety. Prolonged driving under such conditions may lead to a tire blowout, so the tire should be replaced promptly.

I'm quite familiar with this issue, having driven this model several times. The most commonly used original tire brand for the Binyue is GITI, with the GitiComfort series being very prevalent. These tires offer good grip, are quiet and fuel-efficient for city driving, and provide stable braking in rainy conditions. When choosing tires, it's not just about the brand—you need to consider the vehicle's configuration and driving habits. For example, some higher-end versions might use Linglong or other brands, depending on the model year. It's advisable to check the owner's manual or consult a 4S store for specifics. Additionally, tire lifespan is closely tied to driving safety. Regularly checking tire pressure and wear is crucial; otherwise, prolonged high-speed driving with reduced grip can lead to issues. When replacing tires, it's best to stick to the original recommended size and avoid arbitrary changes, as this can affect the overall suspension balance and fuel efficiency. Personally, I replace mine every two to three years and find that cost-effective brands are worth trying.

As a driving enthusiast, I have some insights about the Binyue's tires. The factory usually equips it with Giti tires, such as the Comfort 228 model, which offer flexible steering and quick acceleration response in urban driving, but the wind noise can be a bit loud on long-distance trips. Different tire brands directly affect driving pleasure—certain models of Linglong may be more wear-resistant but have weaker grip when cornering. If you enjoy aggressive driving, it's advisable to upgrade to high-performance tires to enhance handling. The factory tires are decent and cost-effective but lack excitement. Tire selection also depends on road conditions—for example, choose anti-slip tires for mountainous areas and prioritize drainage performance in the rainy season in the south. Develop a habit of checking tire pressure monthly; don't wait for the warning light to come on, as it can affect stability and braking distance.

I pay close attention to vehicle safety, and tires are something that cannot be taken lightly. The common brands for the Binyue are Giti or Linglong, depending on the configuration. Over time, you'll notice that the rate of wear affects traction, and tire degradation at high speeds can lead to skidding accidents. It's advisable to check the manual or the sidewall markings for the brand and specifications when buying a new or used car—don't make assumptions. Additionally, tire lifespan is related to maintenance—check the tire pressure and look for cracks at least every two months. Original tires typically need replacement every two years; don't neglect this just because of brand differences. Ensuring that your tires match the vehicle's weight and road conditions during safe driving can reduce the risk of blowouts, especially before long trips—take a good look then.

The tire brands for the Binyue vary by version, commonly featuring GitiComfort series by Giti, and Linglong tires are also frequently used. Specific details depend on the year and configuration—some 2020 models come with Giti tires, while newer versions may switch to others. When buying a used car, it's best to personally check the tire markings rather than just relying on the brand mentioned. Always match the specification code, such as 205/55R16. Daily driving requires attention to tire condition—both underinflation and overinflation can harm the car, affecting handling and fuel efficiency. Regular rotation extends tire life. The OEM tires offer good value for money, so avoid switching brands unnecessarily to prevent compatibility issues that could compromise driving stability.
