The Datsun is equipped with tires with diameters of 14 and 15 inches. Moreover, their width is 185 mm, and their profile is 60 and 55%. The manufacturing plant selects these dimensions depending on the needs of the car, which means that it is with these parameters that the required level of reliability, safety and comfort while driving is guaranteed.

Selecting winter tires for a Datsun mi-DO car

For the cold season, the following tire options for this car are possible:

• NShZ KAMA-505 with a diameter of 14 inches, a width of 185 mm and a profile of 60%. The manufacturer declares that this rubber exhibits high performance on a road surface covered with ice. Twelve-row studding ensures high-quality handling vehicle, and the noise level while driving is reduced. Owners of these tires note that this is the most budget option, from which you shouldn't expect much. Metal studs quickly leave the rubber during operation, and driving on ice is by no means reliable.
• Positive feedback boasts YOKOHAMA IG35 with the same dimension as the previous version. Due to the sipes, these tires provide a high degree of controllability both on ice and snow.

Other tire options for the cold season are presented below.

Selecting summer tires for a Datsun Mido car

For summer use, the following tires can be installed on the Datsun Mi-DO:

• NShZ KAMA-BREEZE 132 with a diameter of 14 inches, a profile of 60% and a width of 185 mm. These tires provide rapid water drainage, which is good for the safety and confidence of the driver and his passengers. Reviews are quite neutral. Many owners of these tires note that this is a decent option at such a budget price.
• With the same parameters, the NOKIAN NORDMAN SX is presented in the middle price category, which is also distinguished by its timely fight against aquaplaning due to the tread pattern. Consumers emphasize rapid wear this rubber and a low level of sidewall protection.

Choosing wheels for Datsun mi-DO cars

Standard versions of the Datsun mi-DO are equipped with 14-inch tires, unlike maximum configuration, which assumes 15-inch wheels.

The disc bolt pattern corresponds to the characteristics of the Lada Granta: four mounting holes on a circle whose diameter is 98 mm.

The rim width varies from 5.5 to 6 inches, and the offset (ET) is 37 mm. The diameter of the central hole of the disk is 58.5 mm.

What pressure should be maintained in the tires of a Datsun Mi-Do?

Normal load requires maintaining the front and rear tires rear wheels pressure at 2.0 Atm.

As the load increases, the pressure in the front tires remains at the same level, while the pressure in the rear tires rises to 2.2 Atmospheres.

How does the size of tires and wheels affect the performance of a car?

This article indicates the sizes of tires and wheels for Datsun on-Do and Mi-Do, as well as data on tire pressure levels.

Japanese models Datsun on-DO and Datsun mi-DO are equipped with different wheels and tires, depending on the specific modification. Therefore, it is necessary to carefully inspect the condition of tires and wheels, as they directly affect handling.

Wheel and tire sizes for Datsun on-Do and Mi-Do

Various tire and wheel options are used for Datsuns:

1. 185/60R14 82Н;
2. 185/60R15 82V;
3. 175/65R14 82T,H;
4. 185/60R14 82T,H.

Original wheels for Datsun - 14 and 15 inches.

In this case, the landing diameter, measured in inches, varies for them:

— 5J – for 185/60R14 82Н, 175/65R14 82T,H and 185/60R14 82T,H;

- 6J - for 185/60R15 82V.

The offset (ET) *2, (mm) for all wheels is 35 units.

Tire types

1. Summer;
2. All-season;
3. Winter.

Winter studded tires for Datsun.

When installing a new kit, you need to make sure that they all belong to the same category. In addition, it is worth considering that the purchased tires may have lower performance characteristics, in comparison with those that the Datsun on-Do was equipped with from the factory. In that case maximum speed The car should be calculated based on tire performance.

Pressure

This aspect must be strictly observed. The operating manual contains data on tire pressure under different conditions - both at partial and full load:

1. Partial load (mPa (kgf/cm2) – 0.2/0.2 (2.0/2.0) for sizes 185/60R14 82N and 185/60R15 82V. 0.2/0.2 (2.0/ 2.0) for sizes 175/65R14 82T,H and 185/60R14 82T,H.
2. Full load (mPa (kgf/cm2) – 0.2/0.22 (2.0/2.2) for sizes 185/60R14 82N and 185/60R15 82V. 0.2/0.22 (2.0/ 2.2) for sizes 175/65R14 82T,H and 185/60R14 82T,H.

Pressure is one of the most important indicators.

Partial load for Datsun on-DO is defined as the presence of 3 adult passengers with no cargo in luggage compartment. Full load – the presence of more than 3 adult passengers in the cabin, or three adults with 50 kg of cargo in the luggage compartment.

The maximum permissible speed when driving with a spare tire is 120 km/h.

Pressure level

Incorrect pressure readings negatively affect the handling of the Datsun. Pressure measurements should only be taken when the tires are cold. They are considered as such if the car has driven no more than 1,600 meters or has stood motionless for 3 hours or more.

The pressure level must be constantly monitored.

If the pressure is insufficient, the tire may overheat and damage its frame. In addition, driving high speed under-inflated tires leads to tread separation. Tire failure is also possible.

Snow chains

Installation of snow chains is allowed only on the front wheels of Datsun models. With them, the driving speed should be reduced in order to avoid deformation of the tires, as well as damage to other components of the car. Installation must be carried out taking into account the manufacturer's recommendations, and the free ends must either be secured or left removed in order to protect the wings from damage.

Snow chains must be properly secured!

It is prohibited to drive with snow chains on a clean paved road.

Nuances

After the first 1,000 km, the wheel nuts must be tightened. It is also recommended to rotate the wheels every 10,000 km, while checking the tire pressure. It is also worth considering that tires age over time, and this deteriorates their performance. Therefore, it is not recommended to install tires on cars that are more than 6 years old, even if they have not been used all this time. And according to wear indicators, it is worth periodically inspecting the condition of the tread.

Tire wear needs to be monitored closely.
