The Haval H5 comes with various tire brands from the factory, primarily Hankook and Giti. The base model is equipped with 235/70-R16 tires, while the higher-end models feature 235/65-R17 tires. Here is more information about the Haval H5: 1. The Haval H5 is an ORV off-road vehicle under Great Wall Motors. The 2012 Haval H5 was officially launched at the Changchun Auto Show on July 14, 2012. The 2018 Haval H5 Classic Edition was officially released on August 4, 2017. 2. The new H5 is powered by 2.0T gasoline and diesel engines, with maximum power outputs of 190 horsepower (140 kW) and 150 horsepower (110 kW), and peak torques of 250 N·m and 320 N·m, respectively. Both engines are paired with a 6-speed manual transmission. The new vehicle adopts a body-on-frame design and is equipped with TOD intelligent all-wheel drive, Eaton differential lock, etc., enabling it to handle more complex road conditions.
Last time I changed tires for my Haval H5, I opted for the Michelin Primacy 4, which offers great value for money. It provides a quiet, comfortable, and fuel-efficient ride in the city, all while keeping the budget in check. The original recommended tire size for the Haval H5 is 225/65R17, and the Primacy 4 fits perfectly. After the switch, the ride became much more stable over bumps and potholes, reducing the jolts significantly. The tires have excellent grip, minimizing slippage even on wet and slippery roads during rain, and they have a long lifespan—mine have lasted two years and are still in good condition. Before installation, it's advisable to check if the tire pressure meets the specifications and to inspect the wear regularly to avoid future issues. The price is moderate, and you can find good deals at auto parts stores or online retailers. After the upgrade, the driving experience improved noticeably, especially for long trips or city driving. The key is not to skimp and choose low-quality tires, as compromising safety isn't worth the risk. For SUVs like the Haval, opting for mid-range brands provides more peace of mind.
