As an owner of a Geely Free Cruiser 1.3 (older model) for several years, I recall its original tire size was 175/70 R13. These tires are particularly suitable for city driving, offering stable performance and good fuel efficiency. Replacement costs are affordable too, with a full set costing just a few hundred yuan. I recommend opting for premium brands like Michelin or Goodyear when replacing tires, as the original ones tend to wear out quickly. Regularly checking tire pressure and tread wear can significantly extend their lifespan. For frequent long-distance driving, consider upgrading to 185/65 R14 tires, which offer better compatibility and improved grip. However, avoid arbitrarily changing sizes to prevent suspension issues. With proper maintenance, tires can last several years, ensuring both safety and cost-effectiveness.
