1 Answers
This Jeep Compass comes with tires of the following specifications: 215mm/60R17. It uses Continental tires from Germany. Below is more information about the tire model: 1. Most tire model markings look like: 215mm/70R15. The meanings of these numbers are as follows: 215 represents the tire section width in millimeters, generally ranging from 145 to 285mm in increments of 10mm; 70 is the aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the tire sidewall height to the tire section width, with 70 representing 70%. Generally, tire aspect ratios range between 30% and 80%. Normally, ordinary sedans should not use tires with an aspect ratio >75%, while luxury cars and high-performance sports cars are recommended to use tires with an aspect ratio <60%; R stands for Radial, indicating the tire has a radial structure, and 15 is the rim diameter in inches. 2. The Compass uses Continental tires from Germany. The advantages of Continental tires include safety, reliability, and lower noise levels, with unique tread patterns on the tire surface that enhance vehicle handling performance. Additionally, Continental tires offer excellent braking performance on both dry and wet surfaces, higher water drainage protection, and are the only road tires globally approved for driving at speeds up to 360 km/h, earning a place in the Guinness World Records. They also boast an excellent product lifespan, making them a high-value product.
