What is the tire specification of the Tiguan L?
2 Answers
The tire specification of the Tiguan L is not low. The 380TSI model comes standard with 19-inch Continental CSC5 tires (235/50R19), with a speed rating of V (240km/h). Any tire that meets this model specification can be used. Here are the detailed specifications of the tires: 1. Markings: Tires are an important component of a car. There are more than 10 types of markings on car tires. Correctly identifying these markings is crucial for tire selection, usage, and maintenance, as well as for ensuring driving safety and extending tire lifespan. 2. Meaning of the markings: Most tire model markings look like this: Tiguan L tire model 235/50R19. The meanings of these numbers are as follows: 235 represents the tire section width in mm, generally ranging from 145-285mm in 10mm intervals; 50 is the aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the tire sidewall height to the tire section width, where 50 represents 70%, with typical aspect ratios ranging from 30%-80%; R stands for Radial, indicating the tire has a radial structure, and 19 is the rim diameter in inches.
I just changed the tires for my Tiguan L last year and did some research on it. The tire specifications for different configurations of the Volkswagen Tiguan L do vary. The two most common sizes I've seen are 18-inch wheels with 235/55 R18 tires and a slightly wider 19-inch option with 245/45 R19 tires. The numbers 235 and 245 refer to the tire width in millimeters. The 55 and 45 indicate the aspect ratio, which is the height of the tire's sidewall as a percentage of its width. The R18 and R19 at the end denote the wheel size. When you go to change tires or check the maintenance manual, make sure to verify the exact original specifications for your vehicle, as getting it wrong can affect safety and driving stability. Tires cannot be mixed if the wheel sizes are different.
