What tire model is used for the Dongfeng Peugeot 408?
1 Answers
Dongfeng Peugeot 408 uses the tire model 215/50R17, and it is equipped with Goodyear tires. The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company was founded in 1898 and has a history of over a century. Goodyear is the world's largest tire manufacturing company, headquartered in Akron, Ohio, USA. The company primarily produces tires, engineered rubber products, and chemical products in more than 90 factories across 28 countries. Today, Goodyear employs over 80,000 people worldwide. For the tires of the Dongfeng Peugeot 408 in daily use, the following points should be noted: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread grooves of the tires gradually become shallower. If the tread wears flat, it will lose its drainage and anti-skid functions, significantly reducing the car's performance. Small cracks may seem minor but can pose a risk of tire blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove small stones lodged in the grooves. Try to park on flat ground. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park the car near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that may deteriorate rubber. After parking, the driver should not turn the steering wheel, as this action accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool down. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires are prone to overheating, and tire pressure may increase. In such cases, park to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool the tires, as this may cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Try to minimize frequent or emergency braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the road.
