What is the brand of the original tires for the Mazda CX5?
2 Answers
The original tires for the Mazda CX5 are Yokohama tires, sized 225/65R17 or 225/65R19. This means a section width of 225mm, an aspect ratio of 65, and a structure of R17 or R19. Yokohama Tires: Manufactured by The Yokohama Rubber Co., Ltd., founded in 1917 with headquarters in Yokohama, Japan. Since 1981, this product has been designated as the official tire for the Macau Grand Prix. All Japanese car manufacturers, as well as Porsche, use Yokohama tires as standard. This product was the first to receive the CCIB certification from the commodity inspection department. Explanation of tire specification codes: Tire types include: international standard tire codes, expressed in millimeters as the section width and aspect ratio percentage. This is followed by: tire type code, rim diameter (in inches), load index (permissible load-bearing mass code), and permissible speed code.
I've been driving the CX-5 for two or three years, and the original tires are usually from brands like Bridgestone or Yokohama. My car came with 225/55 R19 Bridgestone Eco series tires, which provide good grip for city driving and decent performance in the rain. If the tires wear out quickly or the noise increases, it's recommended to replace them as soon as possible. Last time, I replaced them with the same brand, and the 4S store said the original matching is good and can save some fuel consumption. Don't forget to check the tire pressure regularly—keeping it at 2.3-2.5 bar when the car is cold in summer is ideal. Safety first, right? When you pick up a new car, there's a label on the tires, so take a photo and keep it for reference.
