The spare tire size for the Changan CS55 is T165/80. The purpose of a spare tire is to prevent the car from breaking down due to tire damage. Taking the 2019 Changan CS55 as an example, its body structure is a 5-door, 5-seat SUV with body dimensions of: length 4500mm, width 1855mm, height 1690mm, wheelbase of 2650mm, fuel tank capacity of 58 liters, and a curb weight of 1460kg. The 2019 Changan CS55 is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 156 PS, maximum power of 115 kW, maximum torque of 225 Nm, and is paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.

I've been driving the Changan CS55 for a while, and I remember the spare tire is a non-full-size design with specifications of 155/90 R18. Last time when I got a flat tire on the highway, I had to replace it with the spare tire and could only drive at a limited speed of 80 km/h. It felt a bit unstable, so I had to go to the repair shop as soon as possible to restore the original tire. The spare tire is usually hidden under the trunk panel, so it's necessary to check the tire pressure regularly, at least every six months, and keep it around 280 kPa to avoid insufficient pressure when urgently needed. The smaller size saves space and reduces weight, but the rubber tends to age. After three to five years, it might become stiff, so it's recommended to replace it or carry emergency tools like tire repair strips. Knowing a bit about spare tires can really help avoid trouble on the road, especially for nighttime driving safety.

As a car enthusiast, I pay close attention to details. The spare tire of the Changan CS55 is a non-full-size 155/90 R18, with a section width of 155 mm, an aspect ratio of 90, and an 18-inch rim. After installation, the maximum speed limit is 80 km/h; exceeding this can affect handling and braking safety. Changing it isn't difficult, but remember, the significant size difference means it's not suitable for long-distance driving. Over time, the spare tire's rubber can harden, so it's best to check the tire pressure and wear every six months. The reasonable size choice saves space, but don't forget regular garage maintenance—carrying a portable air pump is more convenient. Familiarizing yourself with the spare tire's characteristics helps optimize driving habits.

Safety is my bottom line when driving. The Changan CS55 spare tire is approximately 155/90 R18 in size, a non-full-size tire meant for emergency use only. After replacement, do not exceed 80 km/h and maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel for safety on highways. Spare tires are often overlooked; check the tire pressure at least every six months, setting it to around 280 kPa. Rubber deteriorates over time and becomes ineffective, so consider replacing it every five to seven years. The compact size reduces weight and saves fuel, but after emergency use, the original tire should be repaired promptly. Knowing these basics helps prevent problems before they occur.

What does the fishbone line on the highway mean?

Fishbone lines on highways often appear near tunnels, with the main purpose of reminding drivers to slow down. These fishbone lines have solid or dashed lines in the middle, and the spacing is not fixed - it gradually widens from narrow to wide. Initially, the spacing may be only about 10 cm, but as vehicles approach, the fishbone lines gradually become wider. Highways have many markings and signs, each representing different meanings and used in different locations to provide various warnings and instructions to passing drivers. A highway is a multi-lane road exclusively designed for directional and lane-based vehicle traffic, with full access control. The annual average daily traffic volume on highways should ideally exceed 15,000 passenger cars, with design speeds ranging from 80 to 120 kilometers per hour.

How many seconds will trigger a photo at highway fork intersections?

Not all sections of highway fork intersections have electronic surveillance cameras. If you stop in the emergency parking lane for 10 seconds, even if captured, it won't be considered a violation. Methods of highway electronic camera enforcement: 1. Currently, sections with surveillance cameras typically have induction coils installed beneath the road surface with preset parameters based on specific regulations. Any detection exceeding standards immediately triggers the camera to capture evidence; 2. Speed violations on highways are usually captured from behind, but checkpoint-style cameras may have high-definition capabilities, spanning across the road with bright illumination, potentially capturing clear images; 3. Highway monitoring centers, surveillance point setups, electronic police violation inquiries, electronic eyes, and camera locations.

Are High Beams Prohibited on Highways?

Highways do not prohibit the use of high beams. On highways, lanes in opposite directions are separated by barriers, and the distance between vehicles is relatively large, making the use of high beams relatively safe. On road sections without lighting facilities, high beams also help to see the road ahead more clearly. However, prolonged use of high beams can cause eye fatigue quickly and may lead to illusions. Therefore, when driving on highways at night, avoid using high beams continuously and adjust the lighting according to different situations. According to relevant regulations: 1. When driving at night without streetlights, poor lighting, or encountering low visibility conditions such as fog, rain, snow, dust, or hail, vehicles should turn on headlights, clearance lights, and tail lights. 2. When a following vehicle is driving close to the vehicle in front in the same direction, high beams should not be used. 3. Vehicles driving in foggy conditions should turn on fog lights and hazard warning flashers.
