What is the wheel size of the BYD F3?
2 Answers
BYD F3 wheel size is 15 inches. The wheel hub, also known as the rim or steel ring, is an automotive component. It is the part at the center of the wheel where the axle is installed, serving as a crucial component connecting the brake drum or brake disc, wheel disc, and half-shaft. It works in conjunction with the tire to support the wheel and can also determine the tire specifications. The BYD F3 is a compact car. Taking the 2020 BYD F3 Classic as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4533 mm, width 1705 mm, height 1490 mm, with a wheelbase of 2600 mm and a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. The 2020 BYD F3 Classic is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, producing a maximum horsepower of 109 hp, a maximum power of 80 kW, and a maximum power speed of 5800 rpm.
I've been driving a BYD F3 for several years with standard 14-inch wheels, originally equipped with 195/60 R14 tires. It feels comfortable for city driving with decent grip, but the steel wheels tend to rust over time. If you want to upgrade, 15-inch alloy wheels are a good choice—they look cooler and might slightly reduce fuel consumption. However, they must match the original bolt pattern to avoid steering wobble and safety issues. When changing, ensure the tire size fits the wheels properly; oversized tires may rub against the body. Common pitfalls: online wheel purchases sometimes have inaccurate dimensions, so it's best to test them in physical stores. Regular wheel maintenance extends their lifespan—don't neglect wheel cleaning during car washes.
