What is the wheel size of the Baojun 730?

The Baojun 730 comes standard with 16-inch wheels across all models. Here are the relevant details: 1. The Baojun 730 is equipped with standard 16-inch wheels, featuring common specifications and tire sizes, but offers good comfort and safety in use. For tires, the Baojun 730 flagship model is fitted with Continental tires in the size 205/55-R16. 2. The main advantages of steel wheels are their simple manufacturing process, relatively low cost, and strong resistance to metal fatigue—commonly known as being cheap and sturdy. However, steel wheels also have notable disadvantages: unattractive appearance, heavier weight (steel wheels are much heavier than aluminum alloy wheels of the same size), higher inertial resistance, poorer heat dissipation, and a tendency to rust easily.
I've been driving the Baojun 730 for several years with 16-inch wheels, which is a pretty standard configuration. As a family car, this size performs well both in the city and on highways. The 195-width tires provide good shock absorption, making the ride smooth without much bumpiness. Even when fully loaded for road trips, the car remains stable, and the fuel consumption is around 7-8 liters, which is quite economical. If you frequently drive on rough roads, smaller wheels might be more durable, but the 16-inch ones strike a good balance between durability and comfort. Tire replacements are also affordable, costing just a few hundred yuan per new tire. Just remember to check the tire pressure regularly to prevent wheel deformation, and they can last for several more years.
When it comes to safe driving, the Baojun 730 typically comes with 16-inch wheels, which are crucial for braking response. I've tested emergency braking on slippery roads, and the grip remains stable, reducing the risk of skidding. Smaller wheels can affect brake cooling, while larger ones increase bumpiness—the factory size is well-balanced. For daily maintenance, regularly check the tire wear indicators and avoid changing the wheel size to prevent damage to the suspension system. Safety first—before long trips, I always check tire pressure and wheel balance to extend component lifespan.
