What is the tire size of the Golf car?
1 Answers
There are three types of Golf tire sizes: 225/45R17, 205/55R16, and 225/40R18. The numbers 205 and 225 represent the tire's section width in millimeters (205mm and 225mm, respectively). The numbers 45, 55, and 40 represent the tire's aspect ratio. The letter R stands for radial tire. The numbers 17, 18, and 16 represent the rim diameter in inches. The Golf uses Hankook tires. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow these steps: Retrieve the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the vehicle frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack contacts the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car, making sure the jack is positioned under the vehicle and at a right angle to the ground; Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise, but do not completely remove them—just enough to eliminate resistance. Keeping the tire on the ground when first loosening the nuts ensures that the nuts turn rather than the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they come off, repeating this step for all lug nuts, then fully remove the nuts; Place the new tire on the wheel hub, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts. Install the lug nuts and hand-tighten them until all nuts are snug. The tire replacement is now complete. In addition to the size, the following common data is marked on the tire: Tire carcass ply material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton ply, R for rayon ply, N for nylon ply, G for steel ply, and ZG for steel radial ply tires. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under specified conditions. Letters from A to Z represent certified speed ratings ranging from 4.8 km/h to 300 km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160 km/h; H: 210 km/h; V: 240 km/h; W: 270 km/h; Y: 300 km/h; Rim specification: Indicates the rim size compatible with the tire for practical use, such as "Standard rim 5.00F."
