Thanks for information. Today itself, I have experienced tyre burst in my Honda City. Both front tyres burst on highway. Luckily I purchased new tyre immediately after burst of first tyre.
Are you facing any vibration issues over speed bumps with the 9 array LED setup headlights of the ZX variant? There are many videos online reporting this issue.
Thanks for this information sir. Waiting for 4th gen city and looking for upgrade suggestions . I have got everything I wanted with this video and going with u r recommendation 195/55/r15 and uc6 . Very good video
Planning for uc 195/55 16
Is there any deflationa warning error comes if we upgrade with this size
Hi Ripesh , are there any impacts to insurance or warranty of Honda by changing / upgrading the tyres ?
Hi, Cam you please advise if we can change one tyre at a time as one of my tyre is flat and dont want to invest all at once. So can we upgrade one of the tyre from 185 to 195 ? please advise
Did you install the new 16 inch tyres on the 15 inch stock rims ? Is it safe to do that ?
I have the base model and they come with the 185/65 R15 and they still got burst from left front, i got it repaired, planning to upgrade, suggest me they tyres for the R15?
Very well explained brother! Cleared all my basic doubts. Thank you and keep up the good work. Warm regards
Thank You Shasi ❤️
I bought ZX CVT 15 days ago what type of changes tyre or rim I have to do?
Hello sir as per your guidance I have changed the alloys and tyre 195/55/R16 in my new Honda city It’s good but alarm display on the screen please suggest how can be reset
Very informative vedio.
Will there be any warranty issues of the car on upgrading the tyres as per your suggestion. Please do reply as I am getting the delivery of my Zx CVT soon
I also have the same issue. My 2 tyres got busted. I also want to change the tyres. So now after changing tyres what's the actual average of ur car? And how much should be tyre air pressure in 195/55 R16
Bhai 2014model city me 175section se upgrade 195me kar sakte h ky??
After upgrading the tyre size to 16inch did the ground clearance increase and do you face any issue on pot holes
I own a swift 2nd gen it has 168mm GD did not face touching issue on pot hole in normal road
Did you face this kind of issue in your car because planning to buy this car only concern in ground clearance
Brother when the diiference is around 2.2 than we should go with it or not?
Very informative video. I have the same issue with my City 2018 vx model. Will look for Continental. Thanks for the advice.
Hi, how do i disable Auto headlamps feature? in monsoon the auto headlamps switches on even in day time due to low light. As i turn it down to switch off mode, it springs back to auto and when i go down the head lamps turn off but the DRLs and the tail lights are dimly lit. Is there a solution where the headlights and the tail lights go completely off, im ok if the DRLs stay on. Please help, thank you!!
I'm using stock on my city zx 21.. no issues as of now.. but need to change all my tyres are they're getting worn out.
Do you still recommend the same config?
Bhai.... do u face issue of flickering of headlamps for this ZX model. Tried even replacing it in warranty but still facing the issues. Can u please suggest a solution for this !!
i am using Ertiga 2019 model . can i go for CONTINENTAL UC6 185/65/R15. Hw about mileage and Performance ??
A dealer nearby also suggested me the same profile as it will not compromise anything in any way... i was thinking 195/60 to increase ground clearance further but you have explained that part with 2% deviation... so I can consider the same.. even I have only scrapped the bottom only 4 times in the past 3 years wgich had done 22 k kms
Great information!!...thanks for sharing 👍👍
can this be the same case with honda city 4th gen 2015 model or 2017 facelift model, can this size be a good fit with the above models?
Good contribution to the community bro. You really did well mentioning, issue, reason, solution, option, advantage disadvantage, experience. 🔥❤️
Awesome info, immediately subscribed to hear more quality tech talk.
I guess no one asked if the boot can accommodate this upgraded tyre size in case needed ?
Thank you so much man! I’m facing exact issue and found exact solution.
Recently I bought new honda city 2023 within one month I am facing this puncher issue my model is sv please suggest tyre size for my sv model honda city
Thank you very informative video... My Honda City VX CVT 3 month old... Recently I went for a tour of 1600 km... The roads through Karnataka were very bad... I run on the stock Bridgestone tyres... So far have not faced any issue... But this thing is occupying my mind as every time I look at my tyre I see that theyre too small for the big car... Very informative video thank you
Thanks for your analysis bro. This info helpful. I too have zx cvt
Are stock tyres not covered in warranty ?
Excellent analysis !!
Being the owner of a 5th generation Honda City ZX myself, I have also experienced severe damage to one of my tyres in the six months that I have had the car, and did not know whom to turn to for the sort of advice that you have offered in this video.
Thank you very much for the advice and suggestions.
One question: Do you reckon the TPMS sensor of the damaged tyre would also have been damaged beyond repair ? And if so, will that not affect the overall efficiency of the tyre pressure monitoring system ?
They did this in order maintain speedo error
What is the Alloy PCD requirement for 5th Gen City?
Is there a difference in GC between V and VX, since V offers smaller tyres with a diameter difference and less tyre height of 8mm?
I'm asking this because I'm planning on buying a V with 185/60R15 and upgrading to 205/60R15. The dia difference here will be 4.2 whereas if I go with vx, the tyre size being 185/55R16, the dia will be within 3% after installing 205/60R15.
Is the suspension setup differently tuned between V and VX to accommodate different tyres and still offer 165mm GC, If not, then it is impossible for V variant to have 165mm GC with stock tyres and actually will have around 161mm.
Basically, I want to go with 205/60 R15 Yokohomas in the V MT 5th gen. It'll give me around 10mm in extra GC and essentially remove the scraping issue, should I go with it?
The other option is 195/60R15 but If my point regarding V already having lower GC is true, then there will be just a correction in GC rather in a proper increase.
bro mene yokohama earth1 ka pta keya apne city m, 1 tyre 8000 ka pd rha h….and they said ke city k stock tyre ke cost wo 3000/tyre lga dengay. Toh thik value mil rhe h new stock city tyres ke ya koe or dealer check kru?
Bhai.. ekdum new stock tyre 185/65r16 ka exchange price Kitna mil skta h?
I have a city 5th gen...I couldn't understand Hindi but I guess this is something related to tyres.. My 1 tyre bursted, I changed to new tyres with Same size another wheel tyre gets punctured frequently.. also I always get deflamation warning on my instrument cluster ., Whats the solution for this problem bro? Should I change my tyre size, is anything wrong with the stock tyre size
Brother, does upsizing impact warranty? Please comment on this.
the lower variiant i.e, SV,V,VX have smaller tyre size R15 but the plus point is they are not Low Profile. they are 185/60 R16 so the side wall thickness will be 111mm
195/55/R,16 Bridgestone tyre good or not plz reply
Can we go for mrf perfinza 190/60/R 15 88V?
195/65 R15 is the best size and profile. All Honda City variants in Pakistan come with rim size 15" which is the best suited for this low end Honda sedan.
Any increase in ground clearance?
I have 2021 honda city zx cvt. I have few queries. Appreciate if you can clarify those. First, in terms of tyre upgrade. Which is the right tyre size ? Should I go for 195/55/R16 or 205/55/R16 ? I have seen many users are using 205/55/R16 without any problem. What is your take on that ? Secondly, which brand I should go for in terms of reliability, less noisy, smoother ride with good grip ? Please suggest. Another query I have is in terms of ground clearance of the car. Many a times I have observed that the engine protector cover touches the speed humps. Any solutions to that ? Do I have to install suspension modulator such as Rogerab or any such brands ? Please suggest. At last, I need to say that NVH level of the car is very poor. Can I go for damping which can help in this case ? If yes, which are the brands do you recommend for damping ? Appreciate if you can provide some clarifications on my queries as these are genuine issues that I have faced till now. Thanks in advance.
upgrading 185 to 205 is not recommended. you can go with 195/55 R16 or 195/60 R16. I would go with the later
Would be very helpful if you talk in English or add English subtitles. I didn't experience any issues with the tyres, but rear suspension is soft especially when you drive on speed breakers.
Drove my Honda city 5th gen for 2400 km.
Still, good video (I did understand some by your expressions and the comments section).
I just faced this issue in my New Honda City 2020 model after 2 years, though my usage is not heavy. Good informative video bro, and thanks for sharing such as nice detailed video. This should have been escalated to Honda for better fix.
Which Honda City model are you driving!
Good video very informative for all the new Honda city users who want to change the tyres
On buying the Honda City had decided to change the tyre to 195/55 r16 on the first day. Your video reinforced my decision. Bought the car and upgraded the tyres on the first day. Thanks
Thanks for appreciation
Yes, I am doing the same. Putting Yokohama Bluearth GT
Bro honda city tyre 195/55 R16 mei tyre pressure kitna rakhte ho aap
Thanks for the information
I also switched from pathetic Apollo OEM tyres on Ciaz to Yokohama Earth One and it was a significant improvement in road noise and comfort
Good Good review he aapke kitne dino se me bhi yahi problem meri honda city ke sath face kar raha tha --- so thanku so much
Very informative 👍
U can even go for 195/60 (more sidewall) coz comparing with base "v"model (185/60) deviation is 1.9 % & clearance 6 mm. BTW, rim size has nothing to do with outer diameter/measurement. 15" gives better plush ride than 16" coz of more rubber than steel. AWA, 15 " can hold more weight at rear/boot than 16 ".
Cont UC, primacy, Yoko earth are performance tyres (not comfort ie not soft rubber)
I use Bridgestone turanza (soft rubber)at back & Bridgstone B290 (hard rubber) at front.
B290 makes less noise than stock B250, huh....but B250 lasts long. Yes, u have to compromise on durability over comfort. Most Micheline tyres are soft rubber (silica rubber)
Front suspension wont affect our butts much coz 1) its independent suspension 2) its far away frm seat. Hard rubber is good at front coz it takes the most hits & engine sits over it.
As a 5th gen City user, I would recommend. If ur a hard peddle driver, its good to change oil ASAP ( If u sense, smell of fuel in oil) coz its GDI (not PFI like 4th gen) and its good is consider better fuel octane numbers coz preignition used to happen in direct injection engines. BTW if urs is Diesel engine u got a better luck coz diesel has better lubricating property than gasoline.
What brand do you suggest ? Top priority less road noise , second high speed grip and handling , third Comfort ride (at least slight improvement over stock ).
And what profile. Thanks
@@thedailycyber9640 Can't beat Michelin in this case, but have heard Michelin tyres are not available readily. See if you can get Primacy 4ST. Have heard good things about MRF Perfinza and Conti UC6(for comfort oriented check CC6)
Hi Dev how is 205/55 R15
Can we go tyre size 195/55-R16 with 15 inch alloy wheels in new city V 2023 Model. Or we have to change alloys with tyre. Please suggest
Is 195/60/r16 okay for honda city?
Excellent explanation brother.
Very informative video indeed. Keep it up.
But does upsizing void warranty?
I also faced the same issue with my 4th gen 2018 model city V. Both front tyres.
Nice video. I too feel 195/55 R16 is the right upsize. Also, while upgrading tires it is beneficial to consider the load-index of the tire. 87 is widely used, but if you want tires that are much more resistant to cuts go for 91 load index rated tires, these will have stronger but less flexible side walls, the downside is that the ride comfort will be compromised when the car is not fully loaded and the suspension will be overworked than when using 87 load-index tires. So for upsizing, 195/55 R16 87(load index) if you drive your car under normal load and 195/55 R16 91(load index) if your car if fully loaded most of the times. These are the general guidelines, but depending on the tire manufacturers and the compound used, sometimes even 91 load index tires can feel comfortable.
Better go for 195/60/16 Yokohama
Do we need to upgrade 185/60 R15 on Honda ciry V CVT?
@@Novicexmusic you can go for 195/65/15 continental uc6 91 v . Continental tyre is now made in India you will get warranty too upto 2 years till 50 percent of tire mm.
@@automotive_drives this gives total deviation of 5.11% which is not recommended at all I guess
@@Novicexmusic see if you have any shop near by you get a detailed information there. I think 195/60/r15 & 195/65/R15 specifically of continental uc6 model. You can go for Yokohama too but there will be a drop in mileage in Yokohama because of its pattern. Don't go for ceat and good year or mrf their rubber is too hard for honda city. I have 2019 honda City i have used good year 195/55/16 its worse.
You really give good information ❤bro..
Thanks for your video it's very informative, what would you suggest to a person who was thinking to buy Honda City Zx cvt should I rethink for a different car then or what would be best car in 15-20lakh budget for family of 4, 80% city commute 20% highway, weekly approx 120-150 kms usage. Looking only for Automatic transmission and safe car. Open for Both SuVs and sedans?
Hello Neeraj,
If your city has good roads, if you dont have serious offroad patches in your commute , a sedan is anyday better than a SUV. Reasons being it is more comfortable, more fun to drive, more relaxed and a plus point of huge boot. Regular bad roads with normal pot holes are managable in a sedan. But if you have some really bad patches, absolutely no roads in your commute, you should opt for a SUV.
In 15-20 lac range, according to me, Honda City is the most comfortable, most reliable, decently equipped with features. It has a ASEAN NCAP rating of 5 stars, so safety is also not a issue.
Talking about SUVs in this range, you can go for the Toyota Hyryder, VW Taigun, Suzuki Grand Vitarra. All three are good choices with their own pros and advantages.
Informative 🙏🏻
I got the base model of 5th gen Honda city just yesterday. I am not aware of this issue as I switched from the 3rd gen Honda city to 5th gen.
In my case the rim size 15 inches which looks a lot small when compared to the size of the car. Should i go for 16 inches or 17 inches and whats the tire size I should opt for.
Please suggest. I want the stability, ground clearance and sound insulation should be better.
You got your answer.... 😜😜
Iam buying city v variant we get 185/60 R15 and the side wall is 111mm as compared to your upsized tyres giving side wall 107.....so there should be no problem na sir regarding tyre burst.??? This was my only concern before buying the honda city.
i have 5th gen city V variant which comes with 185/60 R15 and V variant doesnt have tyre burst issue because of thicker side wall..so can i go for 195/60 R15?? for better stability,grip,handling and deviation is 1.98% increase in ground clearance 6 mm
which brand conti,michlean or yoko??????
Sure you can upgrade to 195/60-R15, for the brand try to get the Continental UC6, that is the best choice hands down without any doubt. If you dont get the UC6, you can go for Yokohoma Earth 1. I dont advice michelin, because it is expensive as compared to other two brands.
Thank you Ripesh! Great content and completely educative. The upsize recommended by you i.e. 195/55 R16 generates 1.79% error, increases GC by 5.5mm and increases height by .43inches. You didn't cover in your video
- Whether there is any effect on electronics - ABS, VSC/ESC, BA, etc.? Or How it is affected and how one has to change his driving a bit to accumulate the difference/affect?
- What is the travel change in braking for you after upsizing the tyres?
- Did the dealer/service center pose any warranty void risks to you?
- Not so needed but helpful if you educate us how to calculate/derive from the error % i.e. 1.79% in this case. How to interpret it into KMS driven, distance travelled on odo? Maybe another video to talk about.
It would be helpful and much appreciated your answers for above which will help your followers in much informed decision making.
Thank you!
He did cover
Thanks for covering me up brother
Sir I have already covered it in the video. But I am going to make a video over my experience after installing these tyres and in that video I will cover your comment as well and answer it properly. Thanks for the appreciation.
@@DriveCraftR Pleasure! And thank you for the detailed review. Much appreciated!! Peace brother!
i also had bad experiance a week back,from the day 1 of purchase when ever i unknowngly jumps any pothholes the left front side feels like there is no suspension ,all blow will reach to cabin ,but no other tyres shows this,complained service center from 1st service but they coudnt find any problem,a week back i was driving with my wife home @11pm after refueilng and air pressure check i drove around 60 km in 2hrs with honda app gives 99 score all of sudden i jumped a small pothhole with huge sound ,speed was just 35 -40 km hr ,and my bad luck nitrogen emptied in fraction of second tyre flat ,i changed tyre middle of road midni8,next day when i tried to refill the burst tyre could find side wall is cracked,reported service center,showroom said they will give for warranty and given for 20000 km service,after 2days good year tyre company rejected warranty saying tyre is damaged due to external damage,service center said they drove vehicle nly big patholes maked impact sound,is this normal with all vehicles?sound i feels like is body hits to floor,does this issue solve after tyre change?😢
Any advice for base 5th gen with 185/60/R15 upgrade
You can upgrade to 195/60-R15. You can also go for 205/55-R15, but there will be less benefits in terms of sidewall. So you can upgrade to 195/60-R15, it would be a better choice.
While upsizing let's say 195/55/R16 do we need to change rims as well ? Sorry I am very dump at this 😬
No you are not dumb, will help you in that.
If you are talking about the top model zx varient, it already comes with 16 inches rim so you wont have to change the rims. If you are upsizing in the lower varients, you will have to change the rims, as the lower varients come with 15 inches rim.
You can check your tyre size. Suppose your tyre size is 185/55-R16, the "R16" denotes Rim size, which in this case (185/55-R16) is 16 inches. 👍👍🙂🙂.
Do let me know if that answers your question
Hi Ripesh, hope you are well
I just wanted to know about Bridgestone Tyres with same upsizing (195/55/R16) as you suggested in this video, any suggestions or comments on this brand. I am still using stock Tyres in my Honda City 5th, clocked 7000km so far no such issues faced. I am thinking of replacing these Tyres after watching your video.
Thanks,
Hakeem
Bridgestone is best tyres
I have a Honda city v cvt 2020 and current profile is 185 60 r15. Want to upsize this size the one where 2% deviation is less is 195 60 r15. Can you suggest if this will help in the comfort of the ride also which will be the best brand (city 60% highway 40%)
Go for 205 60 R15
Which wrench size is required to change tyre at home for honda city vx model 2017???
Can somebody please help me with that
19inch size.
What about alloys? 15inch wale tyre k alloy mai 16inch ka tyre lag jaata hai?
Hi, will upgrading to 17 inch size improve ground clearance? Do you know if it is possible/not recommended to upgrade to 17” on Honda City 5th gen?
Dont go for 17
I also faced same issue with my 1 month old Honda City. Tyre fussed landing on pot hole, which shocked me. Thank you for enlightening me
Which model were you driving?
@@Novicexmusic ZX 5th Gen.
@@sokhepkri1288 which is the ideal tyre size for zx variant
Hi after amking the upgrade are you facing any difficulty while driving i have ZX manual 2021 Model
No such dificulty faced till date, the ride is more comfortable, more planted and more stable
I also faced the cut issue within 6 months after a pothole...very informative & well explained video..will go with the advice when changing the tyres
Was it on R15 or R16?
I want to upgrade the tyres as well, but isnt it illegal to upgrade to 195/55 as thr top model comes with 185/55?
Can someone please tell me what size of spare wheel they provide in 5th gen zx cvt and is it alloy wheel or steel wheel???.. coz I got steel wheel 😥 which is without alloy
Most manufacturers give a steel rim in spare
Either full size or space saver
Very usefulll video 👍❤️🤗
Well explained...
Very informative...👍
Won't upsizing void the insurance and warranty? Will get delivery of my car on 26th this month, what do you suggest?
No it won't
Thanks for video....have upgraded my City's tyres ..
Thanks for this video brother.. my rear tyre tyre exploded in less than a year
Good Informative video.
Honda should take this tyre issue very seriously. Same issue faced in my Honda city. Bought in July 2022. Already 2 tyres down. Plus issue of repeated display on screen about checking tyre pressure. Is Honda listening?
Hi bro, great video and love your voice tonality, I'm considering between Honda City top variant and Virtus topline AT. I'm more inclined towards Virtus but do u think it's not a good car to buy?
Go for City anyday for Long run, Reliability and Comfort.
If you want a better performance car with a better overall handling you can go for Virtus. But if you want a "Better" car altogether, with peace of mind, good reliability, good engine, you should go for Honda City. Also with the city you get more comfort, good handling, and a smooth refined engine (Virtus is a marginally better handling car, but the engine is not as refined as the city)
Yes the 3 cylinder is very much noisy.
Hi, Any issue with TPMS after upgrading to 195 55 r16?
No...upgraded to 195 55 16...on city zx...2022 Model...went for yoko....working fine....after 25k kms....drive....sounds reduced....
Can i ugrade the rim size from R16 to R17? (2022 VX)
You can, people do, but it will ruin your suspension and steering assembly, hence not advisable.
Great work! ✌️❤️
❤️
Honda should improve this, nice video 👍
sometimes it makes more sense to reduce the rim size. In this case selling the 16inch rims and buying better looking 14inch rims would be better, which might have also gotten you a profit. then buying any of these size Tyres 185 70 r14, 195 65 r14, or 205 60 r14. all of these sizes allow you to have a greater sidewall thereby reducing the likely hood of your tires being cut from the side. as far as driving dynamics these sizes should not affect anything adversely nor should it effect the mileage. Additionally, the cost of these tires should go down from 7 or 8k to 5.5k per Tyre.
I've got a City (5th gen VX). Could you help me choose between 195/55/16 and 205/60/16
205/55r16 would be a perfect upsize or 205/50r16. 60 profile would be too big and will cause speedometer error. Go for michelin or continental if price is not a problem and enjoy the ride and power of the city.
Bhai Main itne dino se apni Honda ke liye pareshan tha. Same as yours. Your video helped me resolve my problem. Best video
Thank You Brother
hi ripesh - i've installed the same tyres on my 4th gen zx cvt (2019).. good tyres, costed around 30k (all 4)
I bought my Honda City Zx 2 months before, and have never had any issues with the stock tyres but I don’t like them coz they’re too slim. I’m thinking about getting MICHELIN Primacy but I’m also confused for MRF Perfinza. I got the MRF ones in the june for my baleno and one tyre cost me around ₹7,500 and the grip is very good.
Which one would you suggest, MRF Perfinza or MICHELIN Primary ?
The Size I’m upgrading to is 195/55 R16.
Thanks.
The issue we are discussing here happens only once to let you know about it 😅. Tyre burst happens only once in an unfortunate event and anything can happen, from you being stranded out in nowhere to you losing control in a high speed situation.
My recommendation would be Michelin Primacy, if your budget allows. It is a superior tyre altogether.
@@DriveCraftR sure, opting for Michelin primacy, Thanks👍
Dealers here says Michelin is not imported to India now for16”.
Where can I get these in Mumbai?
Go for continental uc6 195/55 R16
Hi again, I actually don't have any issues with the ground clearance of the stock tyres, all I need is better grip and width. After giving it a lot of thought, I have finally decided to go with the Michelin Pilot Sport 4- 205/50/R16. Now the only doubt I have is that I don't want the steering to get too heavy as I am habitual of driving single handed. Please tell me if I'm making any mistakes. Thanks
My honda city 2014 only i want to upgrade tyer you help me which size and upgrade
Go for 205/55r15 continental you will enjoy the ride. Those are good wider tyres
भाई मेरा 175 65 र 15 कंपनी का स्टॉप टायर इने अप साइज कोनसे टायर मे करे
Peril manual or auto Honda city which is better also what about the ground clearance has it improved from the previous gen, or should I just go for virtus or creta, want a comfy family car for city , please advice
The Ground clearance is good enough for regular city roads, until unless you are aware of the fact that you are driving a Sedan. If you are looking for a comfortable family car, you can surely go for Honda City.
Regarding the Manual or Auto, If you want ease and convinience, you should go for Automatic, if you want driving pleasure, strong acceleration, you should go for Manual
@@DriveCraftR I actually tests drove the cvt but it removes the actual reason why people buy Honda, which is driving pleasure and feel
@@DriveCraftR also virtus dct or cvt Honda city
Friend I just bought a VX CVT... After having driven a manual i10 car for nearly 12 years... The CVT is sheer pleasure and on disable to accelerate using the paddleshift and these sports mode... The feel of acceleration and driving pleasure remains i assure
