The direct purpose of the wheels is a transformation received from power unit through the transmission, the torque is propelled into the vehicle by traction. In addition, it is the wheels that get the acceptance, and smoothing out of the shocks from holes and bumps on the road; the time of acceleration and deceleration, control of motion control, resistance to drifts, "softness" of the course, that is, the reliability of the car as a whole, depend on them.

The size of the standard wheels and tires Ravon R2

The Ravon R2 operating manual, like all other cars, contains information about the type and size of tires and wheels.

Ravon P2 disks, depending on the configuration:

• COMFORT - Steel R13
• OPTIMUM - Steel R14
• ELEGANT - Cast aluminum R14

As can be seen from the parameters indicated in the table, the width, bolt pattern and size of the nut standard discs P2 remain unchanged regardless of the radius and metal from which it is made.

On the side of a car tire, there are marking indices containing the following parameters:

• width in mm,
• ratio of height and width in%,
• a mark about radially located cord threads,
• bore size in inches.

Delusion! That the letter R in the tire index means radius. In fact, it indicates a radial design.

The following tires are provided for Ravon P2:

- for 13 landing diameter, regardless of the type of disc - radial with a profile width of 155 mm and a profile height of 80% (155/80 R13);

- 14 landing diameter - radial with a profile width of 155 mm., And a profile height of 70% (155/70 R14).

Custom wheel size for Ravon P2

Often, car owners put on their vehicle wheels that differ from those recommended by the manufacturer in order to improve certain parameters in the car's control, although, as a rule, when one parameter improves, others worsen. When installing non-standard wheels on your car, you need to understand that this affects the resource of transmission elements, suspension, steering assemblies and braking system, therefore, do not deviate from the wheel sizes recommended by the developers.

Ravon P2 has a low-power engine, so it is not worth increasing the diameter of its wheels, as this will lead to an increase in the load required for spinning the wheels, and as a consequence to an increase in fuel consumption.

As for the disks separately: here you should not neglect the regulated width of the overhang, its increase contributes to the rapid destruction of the front wheel hub bearings. The rim landing diameter must also correspond to the norm.

The width of the rubber profile, in contrast to the width of the disc, is not so strictly regulated by the developers, therefore it has a very wide range on the market, but it must necessarily correspond to the disc on which it is installed.

Tires are subject to replacement, due to faster wear and tear and the seasonal change of rubber adopted in our country: in the summer it is customary to use wide-profile tires, and in winter, narrow-profile tires give better grip on the road.

Valid wheel parameters for Ravon P2:

Remember that any deviation from the permissible wheel parameters prescribed in the vehicle's instructions for use degrades the quality of control and significantly reduces the service life of the wheels themselves and some suspension elements in general.

Most of the wheels of modern passenger cars are "tubeless", that is, the air in them is located directly in the cavity between the tire and the disc. The tubeless tire is lighter, more resistant to damage and lasts longer than a tubeless tire.

The car wheel consists of:

• disc with rim;
• tires.

The disc is the link between the tire and the hub. Its appearance and the metal from which it is made influences the appearance of the entire car. The most affordable are stamped steel wheels; more expensive cast lightweight and forged.

The young Uzbek brand Ravon is confidently gaining momentum and popularity. Cars are sold out on the market, and recently, the automaker generally became a sponsor of the Russian national football team. The lineup Ravon is represented by four cars, three of which are sedans and one is a hatchback. In the review, we will focus on the wheels of the latter. Wheels and tires on Ravon P2 have their own characteristics and characteristics.

The Ravon brand name is an abbreviation. The word stands for Reliable Active Vehicle for ON-road. That from English can be translated as: "reliable active transport for roads." There is another meaning of the word.

From Uzbek, "Ravon" is translated as "easy way" or "straight road". The company's emblem depicts a wing that resembles the wings on the helmet of Mercury, the ancient Roman deity, the patron saint of trade.

Features of the car

The Ravon R2 compact hatchback debuted exactly two years ago. It is a slightly modified version of the once popular urban hatchback Chevrolet spark third generation.

The R2 has the same dimensions and the same short wheelbase. Basically, the changes affected the "muzzle" of the car. In particular, the radiator grill: it was changed, and a new badge of the Uzbek company was placed on top.

Despite its small class, Ravon R2 quickly gained popularity and firmly occupied its niche. All thanks to a small price tag that competitors cannot boast of. In addition, the car is in fact the cheapest compact hatchback on the market with automatic transmission gear.

Of course, this is the classic four-speed Aisin AW 80-40LE, which cannot provide optimal fuel consumption. Indeed, even in the mixed cycle, the indicators will still be somewhere around ten.

The car was produced in Uzbekistan and most of its components were also made there. Drives the car gas engine with a volume of 1.25 liters and a capacity of 85.5 liters. from. The timing mechanism uses a chain drive, which pleases many drivers.

Ravon claims that its compact creation can be safely used in a country with difficult operating conditions. Another little feature Ravon R2 is a motor protection included.

Its location is the lowest point in the bottom of the vehicle. As a result, this makes the already small ground clearance even less. As a result, it turns out only 130 mm. This could be considered a disadvantage if the car was not positioned as a city car. That is, a car for urban conditions.

In this operating mode, large ground clearance not necessary very often. Having familiarized ourselves with the Uzbek hatchback, let's return to where we started - to the wheels.

Wheels

The wheelbase of the Ravon R2 is 2375 mm, which seems to be small, but just right for a car of this class. Depending on the configuration, of which there are only two, by the way, two sets of wheels of different radii for 13 and 14 are installed on the car, the standard tire size of which is 155/80 and 155/70, respectively. There are also options for replacing the R14 with other tires or R15.

If the first two are not very different from each other, then in the latter case the car goes much better, holds the road well and obeys the slightest turn of the steering wheel. Regardless, the size of the discs doesn't matter much if potholes appear. With a bad road, the car slightly changes its trajectory, which is especially noticeable if the car is equipped with 13 discs.

For those who want to feel the road more confidently, it is recommended to immediately put R14 or R15, although the ride will be tougher, but the car will not be thrown in a rut. In many ways, the trajectory of movement changes due to the semi-dependent rear suspension... The negative factors of movement can be reduced by using the additional functions of the automatic transmission.

For example, for dynamic acceleration and improved braking, you can turn on the "I" mode, and the "L" mode is suitable for slippery road... There are disc brakes on the front wheels, and drum brakes on the rear. The steering response from the chassis is slightly blurry and slow.

Output

Ravon offers a quality small hatchback at a very attractive price. Wheels installed on cars at the factory are not much different from the wheels of competitive cars of the same class. There is nothing wrong with them, but there are no special features either. The correct selection of tires and wheels will determine the performance of the vehicle.

Studying the parameters of Ravon R2 discs, you should pay attention to the width, overhang and the number of mounting holes. The last point is useful for those who want to change the factory wheels to third-party wheels in the future.
