What is the original tire brand of the Fit?
2 Answers
The original tire brand of the Fit is Bridgestone, with a tire specification of 185/60r15. Taking the 2020 Fit as an example, it belongs to the compact car category, with body dimensions of: length 4109mm, width 1694mm, height 1537mm, a wheelbase of 2530mm, a fuel tank capacity of 40 liters, and a curb weight of 1088kg. The 2020 Fit features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, producing a maximum horsepower of 131ps, a maximum power of 96kW, and a maximum torque of 155Nm, paired with a continuously variable transmission.
The Fit I bought was delivered last year, and it came with Dunlop ENASAVE EC300 tires as original equipment, sized 185/60 R15 84H. These tires are quite fuel-efficient, and the road noise is acceptable in urban areas. The wet grip is decent, but the lateral support feels a bit soft during sharp turns. During maintenance, the mechanic mentioned that this model focuses on wear resistance, and indeed, after 20,000 kilometers, the tread is still quite deep. However, some car enthusiasts in the group mentioned that earlier batches used Bridgestone's energy-saving tires, and it depends on the production batch and configuration version. If I were to change tires, in the same price range, I could consider Yokohama's BlueEarth series, which offers better quiet performance.
