Honda city on 195/65/r15 vs milleage drop

[dayrider]

You should let someone else who has a city analyze it. I am not sure what you are implying, the pedal is soft when something is wrong, worn out pads for instance, less brake fluid. But if it's too hard, your brakes need to be adjusted. So best to get it checked from someone else who drives the same car

Unfortunately , Your reply regarding tyre size is not logical. Mileage on Odo mainly depends upon 15 & 65 and not on 165/175/185/195 or 2015.
However swapping a tyre of 175 to 195 will cause extra wear & tear of Engine and specially transmission ( Major convicts will be your Steering assembly & Tie rod ends.)

babo , odo's concern is always with rim size and height(profile) .Mind it please.

[dayrider]

When the thickness increases, the profile/height will surely increase with it, as the 65 you mentioned is a percentage, 65 percent of 175 vs that of 195 make a world of a difference

o bhaiya engineering aik taraf. . .its also a common sense. . .65 is not a digit its 65% of tyre width. . .175 n 195mm has different 65% height. . .recalculate before reply !

[kamyykk]

adding to ur wrong perception. . .a tyre of R15 with width of 175mm can not be rotated at same rpm as R15 with 195mm width. . .ground resistance decrease rpm of wider profile. . . !

Been driving on 195/65 R15 Michelins since the car was brand new Odo is 95k now, no wear and tear on any components, suspension and steering is as smooth as it were before and mileage is always above (14.5/15.5) within city (AC/nonAC) and on highway where it really shines at 17.7-18kmpl (110km/h)

[pwuser154978327678]

65%of 185 and 65%of 195 are clearly different for 185 and 195 tyre size
Thats how odo gets affected

[Djaymx]

Thats what our pw scientists cannot understand, 65% of 195 is 3.2% larger in rotational diameter than a 175 so odo will always show lower readings

i.e; 100kmph on odo will be 103.2kmph in reality (since the odo is calibrated on a smaller factory tire)

Also each subsequent 100km travelled will have +3.2Km difference in reality.

Is the car height jacked up with 195 tire

[Djaymx]

Yes I am using Michelins ES+ 195 but offcourse mine is jacked up considering i drive with peace of mind i am not complaining about the alleged loss of fuel average

[Djaymx]

What one might call this behaviour?

Utter stupidity.🤢
