The tire model specification of the Great Wall Wey VV7 is 235/55R20. The first number, 235, represents the tire width of 235MM. The number 55 indicates that the tire's aspect ratio is 55%, meaning the section height is 55% of the width. The letter R stands for radial tire, and 20 represents the rim diameter of 20 inches. The Great Wall Wey VV7 has a top speed of 205km/h, accelerates from 0 to 100km/h in 9.8 seconds, and has a fuel consumption of 2L per 100 kilometers. In addition to the model, the tire also carries the following common data: Tire cord material: Represented 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.

As a VV7 owner, I've been driving this car for a while. The standard tire size is usually 245/50 R20, which comes as original equipment. However, there might be slight variations depending on the year or configuration. For example, some models after 2021 use 245/45 R21. I recommend checking the label on the driver's door frame to confirm the exact size. Choosing the right tires is crucial as the correct model can enhance handling and safety. I use Michelin summer tires for their strong grip, and I switch to winter tires of the same size for snowy conditions. Regularly check the tire pressure, maintaining it around 30 psi, and avoid overloading to prevent rapid wear. Once, I forgot to check, and I almost skidded on a rainy day—a lesson learned. Overall, the size doesn't significantly affect fuel consumption, but proper maintenance can extend tire life to over 50,000 kilometers.
