The tire model of Baojun 560 is 215/60R17. The first number 215 represents the tire width of 215MM, 60 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 60%, meaning the section height is 60% of the width, the letter R stands for radial tire, and 17 represents the rim diameter of 17 inches. The maximum speed of Baojun 560 is 175km/h, with a fuel consumption of 8.5L per 100 kilometers. In addition to the model, the tire also carries the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M-cotton cord, R-rayon cord, N-nylon cord, G-steel cord, ZG-steel radial cord tire. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters A to Z represent the certified speed ratings of tires 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'.
As an owner of a Baojun 560 for four years, my manual luxury version originally came with 215/55 R17 tires, with these numbers clearly printed on the tire sidewall. The base model uses a smaller size, 205/60 R16. When replacing tires, it's recommended to check the label on the door frame or the vehicle registration certificate, as configurations may vary between different batches. This specification is quite common, and brands like Continental or Giti can be found for around 500 yuan. Last time I changed tires, I specifically noticed that this aspect ratio balances comfort and support well, and it didn't puncture even on gravel roads. A reminder: don't go for cheap tires that have been in stock for over two years, as aged rubber can affect wet road traction.
