A method of suspension optimum design based on the tire and vehicle matching was introduced in this paper. Firstly, the vehicle handling stability evaluation standards considering tire matching with vehicle were determined by the subjective and objective assessment. Secondly, the quality, suspension kinematics and compliance characteristics and tire mechanics of prototype were tested. The vehicle model of prototype was built in Carsim with the corresponding experiment data. The model was verified by the results of the vehicle handling stability tests. Then a combination simulation platform was developed by making use of Isight, Matlab and Casim. Finally the optimal design of suspension kinematics and compliance characteristics and tire mechanics were conducted, taking straight running performance index, high-speed driving safety index and high-speed cornering performance index as the objective. The simulation results indicated that after optimization, the straight running performance and high-speed cornering performance of prototype could be improved.
