What is the tire model of the Excelle?
1 Answers
The tire specification equipped on the Excelle is 205/55R16. In 205/55R16, the first number 205 represents the tire width of 205MM, 55 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width, and 16 stands for the rim diameter of 16 inches. The letter "R" in the middle denotes a radial tire. The Excelle's original tires are Goodyear, and the spare tire specification is non-full size. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow the steps below: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the vehicle frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack contacts the metal part of the frame. Raise the jack until it supports the car, making sure the jack is positioned under the vehicle and forms a right angle with the ground. Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise, but do not fully unscrew them—just enough to eliminate resistance. Keeping the tire on the ground when first loosening the nuts ensures that the nuts turn, not the tire. Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they are loose, repeat this step for all lug nuts, and then completely remove the nuts. Place the new tire on the wheel hub, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts. Install the lug nuts and tighten them by hand until all nuts are snug. At this point, the tire replacement is complete. In addition to the model, the following common data are also marked on the tire: 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, ZG for 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 certified speed ratings from 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common 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.
