1 Answers
The tire size of the Volkswagen Polo is 185/65R15. The first number, 185, represents the tire width of 185MM. The 65 indicates the tire's aspect ratio is 65, meaning the section height is 65% of the width. The 15 represents the rim diameter of 15 inches. The letter "R" in the middle stands for radial tire. The tire brand for the Volkswagen Polo is Hankook, featuring a five-spoke wheel design, with the spare tire being a non-full-size specification. If you want to replace the tire 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 and loosen the nuts counterclockwise. Do not fully loosen them; just enough to eliminate resistance. Keeping the tire on the ground when first loosening the nuts ensures the nuts turn, not the tire; Turn the nuts counterclockwise until they are loose, repeating this step for all lug nuts, then remove them completely; Place the new tire on the hub, carefully aligning the tire rim with the wheel bolts. Install the lug nuts and tighten them by hand until all nuts are concealed. The tire replacement is now complete. In addition to the model, tires are marked with 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, 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 4.8km/h to 300km/h. Common speed ratings include: Q: 160km/h; H: 210km/h; V: 240km/h; W: 270km/h; Y: 300km/h; Rim specification: Indicates the rim size compatible with the tire for practical use, such as "Standard Rim 5.00F".
