2 Answers
There are two tire size models for the Honda 9.5th generation Accord: 225/50R17 and 235/45R18. The first number, 225, represents the tire width of 225MM. The number 55 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width. The letter R stands for radial tire, and 17 represents the rim diameter of 17 inches. The Honda 9.5th generation Accord has a top speed of 188km/h and a fuel consumption of 6.0L per 100km. In addition to the model, tires are also marked with the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, and ZG for steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings ranging from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Commonly used speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h. Rim specification: Indicates the rim specification compatible with the tire for practical use, such as standard rim 5.00F.
My 9.5th generation Accord is the mid-range 2.4L model with original tire specifications of 225/50 R17, which is indicated on the label inside the door frame. I recommend checking the markings on your own car's tire sidewall or consulting the owner's manual, as specifications vary by configuration and model. The base model typically comes with 215/60 R16 wheels, while the high-end 3.0L version might use 235/45 R18. When replacing tires, I pay special attention to maintaining the original size because altering the tire width or aspect ratio arbitrarily can affect the speedometer's accuracy and increase fuel consumption. During my last maintenance, the technician mentioned that the car originally fits Bridgestone and Michelin tires, but other brands with the same specifications are also acceptable. The most crucial thing is to regularly check the tire wear; once the tread depth falls below 1.6mm, new tires must be installed to ensure wet road traction.
