Trumpchi GA6 uses Michelin brand tires. Michelin Group is a global leader in tire technology, established a century ago in Clermont-Ferrand, France. In addition to tires, Michelin Group also produces rims, steel wires, mobility assistance systems, travel services, maps and travel guides, with its map and guide publishing arm being a leader in the field. More details are as follows: 1. Michelin is the world's number one tire brand and the inventor of radial tires. In fact, Michelin is a manufacturer with relatively balanced technology, slightly emphasizing comfort and quietness. Although Michelin tires are more prone to wear due to their softer sidewalls, the Michelin EverGrip technology ensures that the tires maintain a certain level of grip even after the tread pattern wears down. Additionally, Michelin tires are generally priced higher, making them suitable for owners who prioritize comfort and quietness and have no budget constraints. 2. Tires are consumables and need to be replaced every few tens of thousands of kilometers. You can refer to the tire wear indicators in the main drainage grooves of the tire. When the tire tread wears down to the level of the wear indicators, it means the tires need to be replaced. When tires reach their wear limit, the wet grip area is significantly reduced, severely compromising safety in wet conditions. Therefore, never wait until the tires are completely bald before replacing them.

I've been driving the Trumpchi GA6 for a while now, and it comes with Maxxis brand tires as standard, commonly in size 215/55 R17, which I find quite suitable—good grip and quiet, making city driving very stable. But tires aren't just about the brand; maintenance is even more important. Keep the tire pressure around the standard 2.5 bar, regularly check the wear indicators, and replace them once the tread becomes shallow to avoid slipping on wet roads. I've also learned to always check the tires before highway driving to prevent blowouts. When buying new tires, don't skimp—choosing a reliable brand can extend their lifespan by a year or two. In fact, factory-fitted tires usually offer good value for money, and Maxxis tires have decent durability, but they tend to get noisier over time. So, I recommend selecting tires based on driving habits rather than just the brand.

As a car enthusiast, I've noticed that the GAC GA6 mostly comes with Linglong or Maxxis tires, such as the commonly used 225/50 R17 size, which offers a balanced performance suitable for daily driving. The tire brand really matters – better tires provide much stronger wet-weather traction. I've experienced situations where the tires maintained solid grip during emergency braking. I've developed a habit of checking tire pressure monthly with a gauge, as underinflation increases fuel consumption and the risk of blowouts. When replacing tires, don't just stick to OEM options – try comparing with other brands like Goodyear for different performance. Tires with higher treadwear ratings last longer. By the way, tire size significantly affects handling, so avoid arbitrary size modifications that might damage the vehicle. Regular rotation helps ensure even wear and extends tire life.

Safety first. My Trumpchi GA6 comes standard with Maxxis tires, a reliable brand, but don't overlook regular inspections. Insufficient tire pressure can easily lead to accidents, so I make it a habit to check every two weeks. When replacing tires, choose matching models as incorrect sizes can affect ABS and stability. It's advisable to maintain tread depth in summer, and use specialized tires for safer winter driving on snowy roads. The brand is just the foundation; the key is developing maintenance habits.
