What tires does the Tacqua use?
2 Answers
Volkswagen Tacqua uses Hankook tires. Tire lifespan: The wear lifespan of tires is between 30,000 to 50,000 kilometers. If the tires have not reached the wear limit or mileage but have been in use for 5 years or show significant cracks on the sidewalls, they should be replaced. Function of tires:
Having been in the automotive circle for a long time, the Tacqua SUV I've seen usually comes with original tires in the size 215/60 R17. Common brands include Hankook KINERGY EX or similar versions, specifically designed for urban SUVs with a focus on wet road traction and low noise performance. When choosing such tires, it's important to consider matching the size to the original factory rims to avoid affecting suspension and steering feel. In the size specification, 215 represents the width in millimeters, 60 is the aspect ratio, and R17 indicates a 17-inch rim size. The Tacqua may also offer Continental options, which are more premium, but Hankook provides good value for money with decent wear resistance. However, it's essential to regularly check tire pressure and wear indicators for safety. When replacing tires, always go to a professional shop to avoid damaging the balance.
