What is the tire model of the Outlander?
2 Answers
The original tire specifications for the Outlander are as follows: the 2.0L model uses 225/55R16, while the 2.4L and 3.0L models use 225/55R18. Both Yokohama and Goodyear brands are used. Below is an introduction to the Outlander: 1. The Outlander is one of the few 7-seater models in the SUV market. 2. Now a domestic brand, it inherits Mitsubishi's traditional off-road technology, perfectly combining flexibility and sportiness. 3. In terms of appearance, the Outlander has a robust front end, with the inverted triangular boss on the engine hood extending down to below the bumper, and the front air intake is split into two parts. The lower part of the body slightly protrudes outward, appearing full. Compared to the old Outlander, the new model better suits Chinese aesthetics. 4. In terms of size, the Outlander is slightly smaller than mid-sized SUVs, featuring a MacPherson front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension, which is typical yet very comfortable. 5. The 7-seat design ensures a very spacious interior, with excellent driver visibility and good seat support. Additionally, the car's engine noise is minimal, and the sound insulation is also effective.
I've been driving the Outlander for almost three years, and the tire size is usually 225/55R18, which is the most common factory configuration. When I bought the car, the salesperson reminded me not to change the size randomly, as it could easily affect braking and fuel consumption. Every time I go to the 4S store for maintenance, they check the tire pressure and wear. I remember replacing them once, opting for a brand-name tire, which cost over 800 yuan—it's fine mainly for city driving. If you're unsure about your car's model, just check the label on the side of the door or consult the manual. Don't underestimate the importance of tire size—too large increases fuel consumption, and too small makes the car unstable.
