The Savannah uses Giti Savero HT Plus series tires, with a tire size of 265/65/R17. Giti Tires, founded in Singapore, entered China in 1993 and has subsidiaries or offices in the United States, Canada, Germany, the United Kingdom, France, Indonesia, and Brazil. It operates seven factories in five strategic cities in China. For the Savannah's tires, the following points should be noted during daily use: Regularly inspect the tire surface for cracks, deformations, or other defects. Due to driving wear, the tread grooves gradually become shallower. If the tread is worn flat, it will lose its drainage and anti-slip functions, significantly reducing the vehicle's performance. Even small cracks can pose a risk of tire blowouts at high speeds. Additionally, promptly remove pebbles lodged in the grooves. Park on level ground whenever possible. Avoid parking on roads with thick, sharp, or pointed stones. Do not park near or in contact with petroleum products, acids, or other materials that can deteriorate rubber. After parking, avoid turning the steering wheel, as this accelerates tire wear. Do not splash water to cool the tires. In hot weather or during high-speed driving, tires can overheat, increasing air pressure. In such cases, stop to allow the tires to cool naturally. Never release air to reduce pressure or splash water to cool them, as this can cause abnormal aging of the tread rubber. Avoid sudden braking. Minimize frequent or hard braking to prevent accelerated tread wear caused by dragging between the tires and the road.

I've been driving the Savannah for several years, and it usually comes with LT245/75R16 all-season tires. Brands like Goodyear or Michelin are quite common, especially suitable for transportation or daily use. The sizes are mostly 16 or 17-inch load-bearing tires, which can handle heavy loads but sometimes feel lacking in grip on mud or snow. If you buy a , it's best to check the production year and wear condition. After switching to Michelin, the noise reduced significantly, making long-distance drives much more comfortable. I recommend new owners to maintain tire pressure at 35-40 PSI to extend the tire's lifespan.

When it comes to the Savannah, I often help friends modify their tires. The factory usually equips them with LT-specification heavy-duty tires, such as 245/75R16 or 265/70R17. The standard version is the Goodyear Wrangler series, which is durable and economical, but if you're going off-road, you can upgrade to AT tires. Considering the different load requirements of models like the 1500 and 3500, it's important to check the load index when selecting tires. For daily use, all-season tires are sufficient, but don't skimp and buy mismatched sizes as it can cause uneven wear. Regularly rotating the tires can balance the wear, and it's generally safe to replace a set every 50,000 kilometers.

From a safety perspective, Savannah tires must be appropriately sized load-rated tires. The factory typically uses Goodyear LT245/75R16, with tread patterns designed for both wear resistance and traction. Low tire pressure during high-speed driving can easily cause bulging, so it's recommended to check monthly, with the ideal value being 30-35 PSI when cold. Replace tires promptly when they age, otherwise the risk of skidding in rainy conditions increases. Personally, I insist on using the original brand spare tire and keeping it ready for emergencies.

From a daily perspective, the standard tires on the Savannah have a decent lifespan, but you should pay attention when they wear out quickly. The size is mostly LT265/70R17, with brands like Michelin Defender. The inspection method is simple: check the tread depth every 5,000 kilometers, and replace them when it's down to 2mm. All-season tires perform well on city roads, but in snowy winter conditions, it's advisable to add snow chains. Don't overlook wheel corrosion affecting sealing. When replacing, choose a load-matching model to avoid vibration issues.

In terms of cost-effectiveness, the original tires on the Savannah are mostly Goodyear's economical models, with sizes like 245/75R16. However, for upgrades, Michelin offers quieter and more durable options, with all-season tires suitable for most road conditions. Tires priced around a hundred and eighty yuan per piece are a good deal, but avoid cheap knockoffs. Consider your usage scenario: if you frequently drive on rough roads, switching to AT tires provides better stability, and regular can extend their lifespan by 20,000 kilometers. When I ran a small company fleet, smart tire replacements helped me save on maintenance costs.
