Is the tyre size provided by Changan Kalam ideal for handling loads on bumpy roads and potholes common in Pakistan?

Users often say the tyre sidewalls are too thin, leading to bulges o r sidewall damage. Should a wider o r higher-profile tyre be considered?

No — sidewalls are often too thin.

The stock tyres usually have a narrow tread and low sidewall height.

This causes:

Bulging

Sidewall cuts

Blowouts on potholes o r rough gravel

Ideal Fix: A wider tyre e.g., 185/70 o r 195/75 with reinforced sidewalls and higher ply-rating for commercial durability.
