What to look for in BYD DOLPHIN tyres

Electric SUVs are noticeably heavier than the combustion vehicles they replace, and they deliver torque instantly from a standstill. Both of those things accelerate tyre wear, which is why many EVs are fitted with tyres carrying an HL (high load) or reinforced XL designation from new. Substituting a standard-load tyre in the same size is a common and expensive mistake.

Three other characteristics matter more on an EV than on a petrol equivalent: rolling resistance, which directly affects range; noise, because there is no engine to mask it; and wet grip, because the extra mass has to be stopped. Many EV-specific tyres use a foam liner inside the casing to cut cabin noise. Check the placard carefully — EV load indices and speed ratings are often higher than the same size fitted to a combustion car.

BYD DOLPHIN tyre sizes and fitment

The authoritative source for your tyre size is the placard on the vehicle itself — usually inside the driver's door jamb, sometimes in the glovebox or on the fuel filler flap. It lists the size, the minimum load index and speed rating, and the recommended pressures for both normal and loaded running. Because the DOLPHIN was offered with more than one wheel and tyre combination across its life and variants, the placard on your car is more reliable than a generic size list.
