Geely Emgrand GL is equipped with a product from Giti Tires, with a tire size of 205/55R16. The spare tire is a non-full-size spare. In terms of wheel design, the Emgrand GL features a double five-spoke wheel design. Here is an introduction to the functions of 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, ensuring good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface to improve the car's power, braking, and passability. 3. Prevent severe vibrations and early damage to car components, adapt to the vehicle's high-speed performance, reduce driving noise, and ensure driving safety, handling stability, comfort, and energy efficiency.

Anyone who drives a Geely Emgrand GL knows that the factory usually comes with tires from brands like Giti or similar, with sizes like 205/55 R16 being quite common. For daily driving, I find these tires practical—they're durable and fuel-efficient in the city, and their grip in the rain is decent enough to prevent slipping. Maintenance is straightforward: I make it a habit to check the tire pressure monthly, keeping it between 2.4-2.5 bar to prevent uneven wear and extend their lifespan. The replacement cycle is around 50,000 kilometers, depending on driving habits; if you frequently drive on highways, switching to quieter tires can improve comfort, though the factory ones offer great value for money. Regular tire rotation is also crucial—it saves on repair costs and enhances safety. Always monitor tread depth, ensuring it doesn’t go below 3mm, and don’t forget to check the spare tire for emergencies.

I've been driving a Geely Emgrand GL for three years, and the original Giti Comfort 205/55 R16 tires have proven to be quite durable. For daily city commuting, there's some tire noise but it's acceptable, and the wet grip is adequate with no issues encountered. When I replaced them, I stuck to the same specifications, costing just over 2,000 RMB for a set, which is quite affordable. During maintenance, I always remind the technician to check the tires and maintain a stable tire pressure of 2.5 bar; before long highway trips, I always check the pressure to avoid risks. The harder tire material helps save fuel, with actual tests showing an 8% fuel saving compared to older tires; if the hardness is bothersome, upgrading to comfort-type tires is an option but more expensive. Regular maintenance by the owner can extend tire life and save money, making them quite suitable for family needs.

Tire safety is vital for driving safety. The Geely Emgrand GL's Giti or equivalent tires are designed with an emphasis on wet road grip and cost-effectiveness, with sizes like 205/55 R16 balancing handling and comfort. I recommend owners check tire pressure and tread depth at least monthly to prevent blowouts; in summer, keep hot pressure below 2.5 to avoid deformation, and switch tires timely in winter for better traction. Quality tires can significantly shorten braking distances, especially crucial during high-speed driving. Regularly rotating tires ensures even wear, extending lifespan and saving costs. Gentle driving habits, like avoiding sudden braking, enhance tire longevity and safety.

What Causes Light Stains on Car Light Covers?

Car light covers develop light stains due to poor airtightness, which allows moisture to enter and then evaporate under the heat of the lights, leaving behind stains. Below is relevant information about car light covers: Materials of Car Light Covers: The glass covers of vehicle headlights and taillights are made from high-grade polycarbonate through injection molding. Polycarbonate offers high hardness, strength, toughness, UV resistance, and excellent light transmission. Characteristics of High-Quality vs. Low-Quality Light Covers: High-quality light covers provide good light distribution and high brightness, whereas low-quality ones lack sufficient brightness, have poor focus, and offer limited range. During overtaking, these inferior covers can create visual illusions for drivers, increasing the risk of accidents. Therefore, when modifying headlights or replacing them due to damage, it's essential to carefully inspect the light covers.

What type of air circulation is effective for eliminating odors inside the car?

To eliminate odors inside the car, you should use the external air circulation mode. When using the internal circulation mode, the vehicle's interior space becomes like a sealed environment, preventing fresh air from entering. However, when the external circulation is activated, fresh air from outside flows into the car, improving the air quality inside. More details about internal and external air circulation are as follows: Function of internal circulation: Internal circulation can enhance the effectiveness of the air conditioning, similar to cooling the indoor cold air. However, prolonged use of internal circulation can degrade the air quality inside the car, potentially causing dizziness or discomfort. It is advisable to switch to external circulation for a few minutes after using internal circulation for a while to allow fresh air to enter and improve air quality. If the air conditioning's internal/external circulation switch is a mechanical lever instead of a button, you can place the lever in the middle position between internal and external circulation to allow a moderate amount of outdoor air to enter, thereby enhancing air quality. Function of external circulation: Using external circulation allows you to breathe fresh air from outside the car. In winter, if the warm air feels too hot, you can turn off the fan and activate external circulation to maintain the interior temperature while still getting fresh air.

Differences Between Internal Combustion Engines and External Combustion Engines

The following are the differences between internal combustion engines and external combustion engines: 1. Different fuels: The biggest difference between internal combustion engines and external combustion engines lies in where the fuel is burned. In internal combustion engines, the fuel burns inside the engine, while in external combustion engines, the fuel burns outside. Steam engines, for example, use boilers to generate steam, which is then directed into cylinders to perform work. Since the combustion process occurs outside the cylinders, they are called external combustion engines. There are many types of internal combustion engines, with gasoline engines and diesel engines being typical examples. 2. Ignition methods: Internal combustion engines can be either compression ignition or spark ignition. For instance, gasoline engines are spark ignition, while diesel engines are compression ignition. External combustion engines can only be spark ignition.

Can a car that is not under my name be mortgaged?

It can be mortgaged, but relevant authorization and documents must be obtained. Below are the considerations for mortgaging a car not under your name: Complete Procedures: Using a relative's car as collateral requires all procedures to be fully completed before processing, with none missing. Generally, the required materials include the borrower's and car owner's ID cards, vehicle license, motor vehicle registration certificate, car purchase invoice, tax payment certificate, and car insurance policy. Forms of Mortgage Loans: Loan forms can be roughly divided into two types. First, the car owner and borrower jointly apply for the loan, becoming nominal co-borrowers who share the responsibility of repayment. Second, the actual borrower uses the funds, and the car owner does not need to be present for the procedures. Fee Standards: Different loan forms have varying fee standards. If the borrower and car owner are co-borrowers, the monthly management fees for mortgaging the car and mortgaging the documents without the car will differ. If the car owner is not present and the borrower unilaterally uses someone else's car as collateral, the handling fee rates will significantly increase, with separate adjustments for mortgaging the car and mortgaging the documents without the car.
