Mahindra XUV500 Recommended Tyre Upsizing
Mahindra XUV500 Variants | Stock Tyre Size | Recommended Upsize |
XUV500 W5 | 235/65 R 17 | 255/60 R 17 |
XUV500 W7 | 235/65 R 17 | 255/60 R 17 |
XUV500 W9 | 235/65 R 17 | 255/60 R 17 |
XUV500 W11 | 235/65 R 17 | 255/60 R 17 |
With its fascinating mean looks, modern interior design and robust built quality Mahindra XUV500 not only disrupts the segment but also takes mettle from a segment above. The recommended tyre upsize choice comes as the 255/60 R 17 tyres. With the swapping of these wider radial tyres, there will be an increase in the ground clearance and diameter by 0.1 percent and 0.5 mm respectively. The upsize tyres with wide contact patch area will provide the XUV500 with better traction over the dry surface and superior handling at high speeds on long routes. Moreover, the slight rise in the ground clearance will allow a more comfortable off-road and adventure experience alongside an upright mannish emergence. The high ground clearance and broad contact patch of the tyres also help in confident steer through the waterlogged conditions besides enhanced better dry grip and cornering at speeds. ALSO READ: 10 Best Cars To Drive On The Himalayas
Remember, if you choose to go for recommended tyre upsize option the effect will be directly on the ground clearance aspect, as it will either increase or will get reduced. In order to maintain the best functioning of the instrument cluster, the ground clearance increase should be maximum up to 3 percent or less than 3 percent against the standard ground clearance. Likewise, if the increase or decrease in the ground clearance goes higher / lower than the (+ or -) 3 percent mark it will affect the functioning of the speedometer/odometer.
Note –Â The above-mentioned tyre upsizing options may affect odometer reading marginally. These upsizes are suggested as per our upsizing calculation.

(3) my drive is urban / interurban roads with occasional potholes. thanks.
