Which brand does the 17-inch tire of the Haoying belong to?
2 Answers
The 17-inch tire of the Haoying belongs to the Michelin brand. Michelin tires have advantages such as strong grip, comfortable ride, and softer tread. Precautions for tire usage: The car's tires, including the spare tire, must be checked regularly every month. During inspection, observe the surface of the car's tires for any cracks or scratches. It is best to wear gloves and reach inside the tire to check for any suspicious marks. If any suspicious signs are found, immediately have a detailed inspection done by a car service. Replace any problematic tires promptly. If abnormal wear is noticed on the tire surface, it may indicate an issue with the wheel alignment, which should be repaired. Precautions for tire replacement: The replacement cycle for tires should be determined based on their condition. Tires should be replaced as soon as possible if the following conditions occur to avoid accidents: the tread pattern on the tire surface is completely worn out; the tire sidewall has sustained damage due to impacts; the tire surface has developed pinholes and started leaking air; the tire frequently loses air for unknown reasons; although there are no major damages, the tire has been patched multiple times and has too many injuries, requiring immediate replacement.
The original 17-inch tire configuration for the Honda Haoying (Breeze) isn't fixed to a single brand—it varies by specific model year. From my repair experience in recent years, I've seen several scenarios: for instance, the 2023 Luxury trim uses Bridgestone Alenza, the Comfort trim comes with Michelin Primacy, while the base model is equipped with Goodyear Assurance. Why so many brands? Honda flexibly selects tires based on cost, performance, and supply chain considerations. Therefore, owners should check their tire sidewall labels or user manuals for confirmation. Different brands affect grip and noise levels—Bridgestone offers durability but tends to be stiffer, whereas Michelin provides quieter and more comfortable rides. Regular checks on tire pressure and tread wear are advised, as safety comes first. When replacing tires, avoid randomly choosing brands; OEM-recommended options better match the suspension system and extend tire life. In short, the specific brand varies case by case. For hands-on owners, lifting the wheel cover to inspect is an option.
