You can find this information on the sidewall of your existing tyre. Alternatively you can call our National Sales Team on 0800 028 9000 for impartial advice or to place an order.

Background Information on Diahatsu

Small cars are a Daihatsu speciality and the tyres fitted to each model at manufacture were carefully selected to meet a whole range of criteria; safety, fuel economy, handling, performance and ride comfort.

A Japanese car manufacturer launched in 1907 (although it was originally known as Hatsudoki), its mission has been “creating small cars that are loved by people the world over”.

Many motorists choose to retain the original tyre choice when replacing worn tyres, and for those who don’t etyres can recommend a number of suitable replacement tyres depending on your model and driving preferences.

Changing Daihatsu Tyres

Changing Daihatsu Car Tyresshould require 3 primary choices:

• The overall quality of the tyre (durability, wear, ratings, cost) desired for the Daihatsu
• The speed rating that the Daihatsu Tyres should have depending upon the driver's average and occasional "fastest-driven" speed
• Deciding if local and/or regional weather patterns merit keeping two sets of tyres for dry vs. wet road conditions

Further, if an owner wishes to put tyres on different sized wheels for the Daihatsu, a careful decision about what size tyres will be valid for that Daihatsu is required. If, for example, a larger wheel size is desired, then the profile (height) and/or the width must be reduced to avoid damaging the drive train. A 195/65/15 tyre for that Daihatsu, for instance, on a 17" rim, could legitimately become a 165/65 (narrower) or a 195/55 (shorter) but could not stay a 195/65 as before. A handy calculator for changing tyre sizes can be found here.

All tyres for any Daihatsu vehicle should be fitted using the proper torque, according to the manufacturer's specifications. Torque is the amount of pressure used to tighten the wheel nuts. For tyres that are fitted to the following Daihatsu models, the torque settings are listed. Also, the recommended air pressure to put into tyres for Daihatsu models is listed. Further, the alternate tyre size for Daihatsu models.

Note: Further information on tyres and car batteries for Daihatsu vehicles may be found at the manufacturer's own website... Daihatsu
