What is the tire model of the Trumpchi GS4?
2 Answers
Trumpchi GS4 uses two sizes of tires, one is 215/60r17, and the other is 215/55r18. Below are the relevant introductions about tires: 1. The size specifications of the tire are written on the side of the tire. 2. In addition to the size specifications, there are many other important information on the side of the tire, such as speed rating, load index, etc. 3. The production date of the tire is generally a four-digit number, which is written on the side of the tire, such as 1019, which means the tire was produced in the 10th week of 2019. It is recommended that car owners replace their tires every four years, even if the mileage is low within four years. 4. Tires are rubber products and will age over time. When purchasing tires, pay attention to the production date, as tires will also age if left unused for a long time.
I've been driving for over 20 years and know the tires of the Trumpchi GS4 very well. They're usually the 215/60 R17 model, which means the tire width is 215 millimeters, the aspect ratio is 60%, and the wheel size is 17 inches. This size is quite common, specifically designed for urban SUVs, balancing stable handling and fuel efficiency. If you carefully check the GS4 owner's manual, there might be slight variations depending on the year or configuration, such as the 215/65 R16 before the 2018 model. But I drive a newer version, which offers good shock absorption and low tire noise. The tire size directly affects safety: the right width can handle slippery roads, and a higher aspect ratio acts like an extra cushion, making it more stable over potholes. I regularly check the tire pressure, keeping it between 2.3-2.5 bar to avoid excessive wear or the risk of a blowout. If the tire model doesn't match, the driving experience will be much worse, so replacing the tires every two years or so is crucial. Remember, choosing big brands like Michelin or Bridgestone ensures better durability, especially if you frequently drive on highways.
