The tire model of the Wuling Hongguang S is 175/70R14. The tire size specifications are written on the side of the tire. 175 represents the tire width of 175 millimeters, 70 represents the aspect ratio of 70, R stands for radial tire, and 14 indicates it can be mounted on a 14-inch rim. The Wuling Hongguang S is a microvan with dimensions of 4390 mm in length, 1660 mm in width, and 1750 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2720 mm. The Wuling Hongguang S is equipped with two engines: a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 1.2-liter engine delivers a maximum power of 56 kW and a maximum torque of 110 Nm, while the 1.5-liter engine produces a maximum power of 73 kW and a maximum torque of 140 Nm.
I've been driving the Wuling Hongguang S for rural transportation, and the standard tire size is 185/70 R14. This size is quite common, with a 185mm width and a 70% aspect ratio, providing good grip on gravel roads and decent comfort, unlike larger tires which can be more bumpy. However, if you buy a high-end or low-end version of the car, the tire size might differ, so you should check the label on the door pillar or the user manual. The quality of tires directly affects fuel consumption and safety. I check the tire pressure and wear every 20,000 kilometers and have replaced them several times, always sticking to the original size. Significant deviations may trigger engine warnings or increase noise, so it's best to get replacements at a reputable shop and not skimp on this expense.
