What tires are used on the 2018 Sagitar?
2 Answers
18 Sagitar uses Giti brand tires. The model is 205/55R16, and the spare tire model is 195/65R15. The following are the main functions of car tires: 1. Support the entire weight of the vehicle, bear the load of the car, and transmit forces and moments in other directions. 2. Transmit traction and braking torque to ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface, thereby improving the car's power, braking, and passability; work together with the car suspension to mitigate the impact during driving and dampen the resulting vibrations. 3. Prevent severe vibrations and early damage to car components, adapt to the high-speed performance of the vehicle, reduce driving noise, and ensure driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and energy efficiency. Extended information: The new Sagitar is an A+ class comfortable sedan that perfectly combines the latest German craftsmanship with modern and dynamic styling.
I drive my own 2018 Sagitar, which came with factory-fitted Hankook Kinergy Eco K425 tires in size 205/55 R16. After running over 30,000 kilometers, I feel they perform quite well—they're quiet for daily commuting and noticeably fuel-efficient. I've observed that the tread pattern is well-designed, providing good wet-road grip without worrying about slipping. However, if you frequently take long trips, it's advisable to check tire pressure and wear every six months to avoid blowout risks. The factory tires are highly durable, averaging 4-5 years before replacement, offering great value for money—ideal for commuters like us. Maintaining tire pressure within the standard range during upkeep can extend their lifespan and improve driving comfort.
