What is the tire model for the 2021 Honda CR-V?
2 Answers
2021 Honda CR-V comes with three tire models: 235/65R17, 235/60R18, and 235/55R19. Precautions for tire usage: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects; park on level ground and avoid parking on roads with large, sharp, or pointed stones; do not use water to cool overheated tires—tires can overheat during prolonged or high-speed driving in summer, leading to increased pressure. In such cases, park to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool them, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tire rubber; avoid sudden braking—maintain appropriate speed, pay attention to road conditions, pedestrians, and other vehicles, and prepare for braking to reduce frequent or emergency stops; choose good road surfaces—when driving through road construction zones, proceed slowly at low speed while carefully selecting the path. Precautions for tire maintenance: Avoid rapid acceleration or deceleration with new tires, and refrain from excessive steering, as these actions can shorten tire lifespan; keep tires clean; develop a habit of checking tire condition before driving; remember to inflate tires when pressure is insufficient.
As an owner of a 2021 Honda CR-V, I did thorough research when changing tires last year. Base models typically use 225/65 R17 tires, while higher trims may upgrade to 235/60 R18. These specifications are indicated on the door jamb label - 225 represents the width in millimeters, 65 is the aspect ratio, and R17 means 17-inch rims. I chose Michelin tires which are quite wear-resistant; after two years of urban driving, the tread depth remains sufficient. If you frequently drive on highways or rough roads, remember to check wear every 10,000 km by inserting a coin into the tread grooves to measure depth. It's advisable to switch to winter tires when snow falls, as insufficient traction may cause skidding and safety risks. Maintain tire pressure around 35 psi during monthly inflation checks - this can extend tire life and reduce fuel consumption by approximately 5%.
