Kia EV2: Tyres and wheels / Radial-ply tyres

Radial-ply tyres provide improved tread life, exceptional road hazard resistance, and a noticeably smoother ride quality at high cruising speeds for your Kia EV2.

The advanced radial-ply tyres fitted on this vehicle feature a reinforced belted construction specifically engineered to complement the precise ride comfort and handling characteristics of the Kia EV2. These radial tyres deliver the exact same load-carrying capacity as bias-ply or bias-belted tyres of equivalent size while maintaining identical recommended inflation pressure standards.

Never mix radial-ply tyres with bias-ply or bias-belted tyres under any circumstances. Combining different tyre constructions on the same vehicle can seriously deteriorate your handling stability and compromise driving safety. Always ensure you use identical radial-ply tyres installed as a complete, matching set of four.

Tyres designed for longer wear can sometimes be more susceptible to irregular tread wear patterns if neglected. Always follow the specified tyre rotation intervals detailed in this manual to achieve the full tread life potential on your Kia EV2. Due to the inherent mechanics of sidewall flexing, cuts and punctures sustained in radial-ply tyres can only be repaired within the flat tread area. Consult your professional tyre dealer or service center for safe radial-ply tyre repairs.
