What is the tire model for the 2013 Cruze?
2 Answers
The 2013 Cruze comes with two tire models: 205/60R16 and 205/65R15. Here, 205 represents the tire's section width of 205 millimeters, 60 indicates the aspect ratio (the sidewall height is 60% of the width), R stands for radial tire type, and 16 denotes the wheel diameter of 16 inches. The 2013 Cruze is a compact car introduced by General Motors, featuring a bold front end with angular headlights that exude a striking presence. The strongly contoured hood and integrated bumper, combined with slightly exaggerated design elements, give the Cruze a dynamic and youthful appearance.
My 2013 Cruze originally came with 205/60 R16 tires, which can be seen on the tire sidewall. The 205 represents a tire width of 205 millimeters, 60 is the aspect ratio meaning the sidewall height is 60% of the width, R indicates radial construction, and 16 is the wheel diameter in inches. However, higher trim models may use 215/50 R17 tires with larger, sportier wheels. When changing tires, remember to check the tire pressure - in winter you can increase it slightly by 0.2 bar, but don't exceed the recommended value on the door frame sticker. Even if the tread looks fine, tires older than eight years should be replaced as the rubber deteriorates and cracks, significantly reducing wet traction which is particularly dangerous.
