Frequently asked questions
Quick answers about UK tyre fitment, MOT rules and seasonal options.
Where should I check the original tyre size for my BYD Dolphin?
Look in three places: (1) the sidewall of the existing tyre, (2) the placard inside the driver's door frame, and (3) the vehicle handbook. The driver's door placard is the official OEM specification, and the sidewall confirms what's fitted now.
What tyre size does the 2023-present BYD Dolphin use?
Common UK factory fitments for the 2023-present BYD Dolphin include 205/60 R16, 215/55 R17, 215/50 R17. The exact size depends on the wheel and trim ordered — always confirm on your tyre sidewall before fitting.
What wet grip should I look for on the BYD Dolphin?
For UK driving conditions, prioritise an EU tyre label wet-grip rating of A or B. Wet grip directly affects braking distance — the gap between A and E ratings can be more than a car length at 50 mph.
Are run-flat tyres needed on the 2023-present BYD Dolphin?
Most 2023-present BYD Dolphin cars were supplied with conventional tyres and a spare or repair kit. Only fit run-flats if your specific car was originally specified with them and has tyre pressure monitoring.
