2026 H6 Hybrid Tyre Replacement: Retain RUNFLAT as Well as 235/55 R19

Retain RUNFLAT and tyre size together for the Mexican MY26 H6 HEV Premium and PHEV Luxury, without inferring damaged-tyre driving limits.

After a puncture, requesting only “235/55 R19” at a tyre shop may leave a key item out of the candidate specification. For these hybrid versions of the Mexican 2026 H6, the factory tyre entry separately states RUNFLAT. Retaining that type marking before replacement helps the repairer check candidate tyres more precisely.

Read the complete entry

The technical sheet lists 19-inch silver wheels, 235/55 tyres and RUNFLAT for HEV Premium. PHEV Luxury has the same size, black wheels and RUNFLAT. Silver and black describe wheel appearance; RUNFLAT is separate information. Wheel colour cannot replace tyre identification. [T02]

At intake, photograph the markings on both tyre sides, size and damage location, and record whether a different type was previously fitted. If the vehicle is modified, distinguish its current condition from the factory equipment; one installed tyre is not proof of the complete vehicle's original specification.

The sheet does not authorise driving with a deflated tyre

RUNFLAT is not a distance or speed permission after damage. A repairer must assess repairability or replacement from actual tyre damage and the relevant technical requirements. A tyre that still looks round cannot be assumed free of damage from deflated running. The technical sheet also does not authorise fitting any ordinary tyre of the same size.

Scope and verification

This article is limited to Mexico; MY26; GWM HAVAL H6; HEV Premium and PHEV Luxury. [Model year and trim basis][T01] Factory equipment information identifies functions and parts; it is not a fault or replacement criterion.

No public data were available in the reviewed material for the specific original tyre product model, permitted speed and distance after deflation, repairability criteria, separate supply or interchangeability; nor for OE numbers, repair parameters, separate parts availability or compatibility and interchangeability. [To be verified] Compatibility or interchangeability must be checked using the vehicle identification number (VIN) and the local factory parts catalogue in Mexico.
