What is the tire size of the new Baojun RS3?
2 Answers
2020 Baojun RS-3 uses 16-inch tires, with the same specification across all models. Specification: 205/60-R16. Precautions for tire replacement: When replacing tires, pay attention to the production date marked on the tire. The production date of the tire is usually indicated by four digits, with the first two digits representing the week of production and the last two digits representing the year. Tire shelf life: The shelf life of tires is generally 5 years. When replacing new tires, the production date should not exceed 3 years. However, tires do not indicate the expiration date, only the production date.
I've been driving the new Baojun RS3 for a long time, with tire size 205/60 R16, which is quite common - 205mm width, 60% aspect ratio, and 16-inch rims. Initially, I found the grip to be good, stable both in the city and on highways, especially with less hydroplaning in rainy conditions. But remember, if the tires wear out quickly, they need to be replaced promptly. Last time, at 15,000 kilometers, I noticed the tread was shallow, affecting braking distance, but fortunately, I caught it in time. For maintenance, it's recommended to check tire pressure every 5,000 kilometers, keeping it around 2.3 bar for better fuel efficiency. In short, don't randomly change the size; the original factory design is the safest, otherwise, it can damage the suspension and increase fuel consumption.
