C5 Hybrid naming and fitment
This guide covers the current Australian Chery C5 Hybrid in the cited source. Do not apply petrol C5, older Omoda, or overseas-market specifications without checking the exact model, build details and tyre placard.
Replacement checks
Match or exceed the placard's load index and speed rating. Verify the wheel package and current tyre sidewall. If changing size or wheel diameter, check overall diameter, wheel width and offset, brake and suspension clearance, steering clearance and South Australian requirements.
Hybrid vehicle tyre selection should consider verified load capacity, wet braking, comfort, road noise and tread life. A tyre marketed for hybrid use still needs the correct size and ratings.
