The tire model of the Hyundai ix35 is 225/60R17, and it comes standard with Hankook OPTIMOH426 series tires. Here are some relevant details about the Hyundai ix35: 1. Body dimensions: The length, width, and height are 4500mm, 1850mm, and 1715mm respectively. The wheelbase is 2640mm. 2. Powertrain: Equipped with a 1.4T 140-horsepower 4-cylinder G4LD engine, using 92-octane fuel, and paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. 3. Chassis: The drivetrain is front-wheel drive, with a front suspension of MacPherson strut independent suspension and a rear suspension of multi-link independent suspension.

Last time I helped my neighbor check the tire data for his ix35, I found that the original tire specifications actually depend on the specific year and configuration. The common 215/70 R16 is used for mid-to-low trim versions, while higher trims come with larger 225/60 R17 tires. The most reliable way is to check the owner's manual, and the tire sidewall also has the specification numbers stamped on it—for example, my neighbor's car had a model number starting with 225. When replacing tires, it's important to maintain the original specifications, as different sizes can affect the speedometer accuracy or even cause rubbing against the wheel arches. Also, follow the tire pressure listed on the door frame label—never inflate randomly. Last time, my overinflated tires made the steering wheel shake badly. Additionally, in humid southern regions, choosing tires with deeper tread patterns for better water drainage is safer.

Last year when I took my friend's ix35 on a road trip, I researched tires. The base model usually comes with 215-width tires, while the higher trim upgrades to 225. The most straightforward way to check your vehicle's tire size is to crouch down and read the embossed numbers on the tire sidewall, formatted like 225/60R17. These parameters directly affect fuel consumption and noise levels - for instance, after my friend switched to quiet tires, the highway humming noise reduced significantly. Also pay attention to tire pressure monitoring. Leave some margin during summer road trips to avoid overheating and blowouts. When replacing tires, try to stick to the original factory size. Arbitrarily changing sizes may cause issues during annual inspections, and while wider tires improve stability, they also slightly increase fuel consumption.

The tire model for ix35 depends on the model year, commonly 215/70R16 or 225/60R17. The easiest way is to check the vehicle manual or look for the parameter label on the left rear door frame. Last time, a 4S shop technician taught me how to identify the tire production date—four digits in an oval frame on the sidewall, such as 0923, meaning the tire was produced in the 9th week of 2023. When choosing new tires, prioritize the production cycle, as old rubber hardens over time. Northern car owners are advised to have a set of winter tires, keeping the model consistent with the original. Slow down when driving over potholes; my colleague's tire sidewall bulged from hitting a bump too fast.
