What is the tire size of the Kia K4?
1 Answers
The Kia K4 comes with two tire sizes: 205/60R16 and 215/50R17. In 205/60R16, the first number 205 represents the tire width of 205MM, 60 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 60%, meaning the section height is 60% of the width, and 16 stands for the rim diameter of 16 inches. The middle letter "R" denotes a radial tire. In 215/50R17, the first number 215 represents the tire width of 215MM, 50 indicates the aspect ratio of the tire section is 50%, meaning the section height is 50% of the width, and 17 stands for the rim diameter of 17 inches. The middle letter "R" denotes a radial tire. The Kia K4 uses Hankook H426 tires, which focus on quietness and comfort. The spare tire is a non-full-size tire. If you want to replace the tires yourself, you can follow these steps: Take out the spare tire and jack, place the jack under the frame of the tire to be replaced, ensuring the jack touches the metal part of the frame; Raise the jack until it supports the car, making sure the jack is positioned under the vehicle and forms a right angle with the ground; Remove the hubcap, loosen the nuts counterclockwise, but do not fully unscrew them—just enough to eliminate resistance. Keeping the tire on the ground when loosening the nuts for the first time ensures that the nuts turn, not the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they come off, repeat this step for all lug nuts, and fully remove the nuts; Place the new tire on the hub, carefully align the tire rim with the wheel bolts, install the lug nuts, and tighten them by hand until all nuts are snug. The tire replacement is now complete. Besides the model, tires also display the following common data: Tire cord material: Indicated by Chinese pinyin, such as M for cotton cord, R for rayon cord, N for nylon cord, G for steel cord, and ZG for steel radial cord tires. Speed rating: Indicates the maximum speed at which the tire can carry a specified load under defined conditions. Letters A to Z represent certified speed ratings 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."
