* Overview of the best editorial board. On the selection criteria. This material is subjective, not advertising and does not serve as a guide to purchase. Before buying, you need consultation with a specialist.

One of the most important elements of the car that affects the safety of driving are tires. Right choice Automotive rubber not only is favorably reflected on driving safety. Comfort when driving, fuel consumption decreases and the maintenance interval increases. In the domestic car market there is an abundance of tires. Deliveries of products to Russia have established all the well-known tire concerns. A rich assortment makes it difficult to help car enthusiasts will come recommendations from our experts.

How to choose the right car tires

Landing diameter. Start the selection of tires specialists are advised from the landing diameter. It must coincide with a diameter wheel DiscTo which the tire will be mounted. In the marking, this indicator is indicated in inches after Litera R. The most popular landing diameters of the disks in the passenger cars are in the R13-R17 range.

Seasonality.The next important parameter of the tire is seasonality. Automotive is offered summer, winter and all-season rubber. Experts believe that it is best to have a set of winter and summer tires, at least the acquisition of all-season is economically more profitable. The symbol of winter tires should be present a snowflake or a combination of a LITER M and S (M + S, M.S).

Tread pattern.Some users do not sharpen attention to the type of tread, which is why small problems may later occur. In structure, the pattern distinguish the symmetric and asymmetric protector, besides, it can be directed or non-directional. The most popular due to the available prices are symmetrical non-directional tires. But if you repel from the technical parameters, it is better to give preference to the directional protector. Such a tire is best copes with the allocation of water from the contact spot. The asymmetric protector is beneficial to good drainage and excellent course stability. However, it is possible to rearrange the wheels with an asymmetric directional pattern on one side of the car (in front of the back or vice versa).

Tire width.The first digital index specified in the label indicates the width of the tire in millimeters. A set of multiple sizes is allowed for each wheel disc. It is important to consider the following points here.

1. A wide tire forms a block of contact with a large area. Consequently, the grip in wider rubber will be better.
2. But narrow modifications won in weight, which is positively affected by fuel consumption.
3. The already the tire is, the less it is subjected to aquaplaning. In addition, the narrow tire has better permeability when driving along a snow-covered road.

Profile height. One of the most confusing characteristics of the automotive tire is the height of the profile. It is indicated in the marking after the sign "/". The number indicates the ratio of the profile height (in mm) to the width (in mm), expressed as a percentage. For example, in the marking of 185/70 the width of the tire is 185 mm, and to calculate the height of the profile in mm, it is necessary to separate 185 to be divided into 100 and multiplied by 70. It will be 129.5 mm.

1. Tires S. high profile Provide the driver maximum comfort when driving, they are resistant to breakdowns.
2. Low profile tires provide excellent car handling. Such models are worth buying if you often come around for good asphalt roads.
3. The larger the width of the tire (with the same diameter and height of the profile), the greater will be height in mm.

Load index. Each tire has a maximum load limit. It is indicated in the marking of the number that follows after the landing diameter. To find out the permissible load in kilograms, you have to look into a special translation table. For example, the number 88 indicates a maximum load of 560 kg.

Speed \u200b\u200bindex. Tires have a limit on high-speed regime. To refer to this parameter, a promotional classification is accepted. Translate to traditional km / h will also be able to use the table. So, the letter H corresponds to the maximum speed of 210 km / h.

We selected the 13 best firms of automotive tires. All of them implement their products in the Russian market. When distributing seats, the opinion of the Expert Community and feedback from domestic motorists took into account.

Preface

It so happened that our site had two articles similar subjects. Therefore, we decided to combine these two articles in one.

Article 1. Choose tires for the summer

The change of winter tires on the summer model is mandatory for each car. This is due to the elementary safety rules and correct
Machine operation. But how to choose how to choose summer tires for Russian roads and what parameters should be guided first? To solve these issues, it is necessary to deal in detail with the classification and consider the characteristics of popular tire models.

How to choose a tire for a car for the summer?

The determining parameters of the selection is the machine brand, its mass and operating conditions. For the summer season of 2016, manufacturers offer a number of new models and time-tested classic tire options.

The main differences between the winter and summer models are the types of protectors. They determine the quality of the tire clutch with the road surface and a decrease in the effect of external facts - moisture, dust, sand, rubble, etc. Therefore, before you decide which tires it is better to choose, the types of testers should be studied:

The next group of factors are the technical qualities of summer tires. They indicate the maximum burden on the design, as well as high-speed limitations:

In addition to these indicators, it is necessary to pay attention to additional designations on the tires and be able to read the complete labeling. Additionally, it is recommended to choose the models broader than that of winter options.

Top 2016 Summer Tires, their rating. We draw conclusions from the journal "Driving"

The official publication of the tire rating on the passenger car by the magazine "Driving" in professional circles caused a lot of varnish. This is due to the fact of distorting the results of the test known brand Nokian. The official winner on the results of the domestic publication was recognized by the model "Nokian Hakka Green 2". But is it really?

To compare the results of the test, you can contact similar foreign editions - Autobild, ADAC, Autobild, VI Bilagare. Almost all of them preferred to other manufacturers. The difference between the choice is within allowable errors.

Nokian Hakka Green 2

These tires are designed to install on medium-sized And small cars. In addition to preventing an aquaplaning effect, it has a positive effect on reducing fuel consumption.

However, despite the positive feedback from domestic publications, Finnish experts from the VI Bilagare identified it only the penultimate place in their ranking. It is mainly due to the decrease in the operational and technical qualities of the model when testing on dry coverage.

Continental ContipremiUmcontAct 5.

This model is the flagship company. In the process of its development, the latest technological innovations were used. In particular, macroblocks, thanks to which the tire contact is significantly increased with the road.

As a result, the tire tests showed well on dry asphalt, forming a minimum brake path. At the speed trace, the results were no worse. Little passed positions during testing on wet coverage. As a result: VI Bilagare - 1st place; Adac - 2nd. In the ranking of the magazine "Driving" of this model of summer tires of the 2016 season, only the 6th position went.

Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance.

Tires have perfect clutch with a wet surface. This contributes to the unique form of the tread. The technology of active braking, first applied in the tires of this manufacturer, allowed to achieve the best results During the test.

Publication tests: VI Bilagare - 2nd line; Hungarian AUTONAVIGATOR gave the top 1st. The "driving" magazine defined them on the 2nd position of its rating.

As can be seen from the results of the tests of the top three leaders in world ratings differ from the published selection of summer tires 2016 g of the "driving" magazine. This year, companies that specialize in the development and production of racing tires took the last position in the tops. Among them are famous brands - Yokoham Toyo.

What tires are better to buy for the summer? Professional reviews 2016.

Despite the authority of the Summer Tires described editions for Russian roads, it is necessary to choose to choose another criterion - reviews of specialists. They will create an objective view of high-quality and technical parameters Models.

About Nokian Hakka Green 2

"The model Nokian Hakka Green 2 appeared only this year. Last version, I drove about 5,000 km. The main problem was a weak grip with grass, which is a priority for Russian roads in the summer (more precisely - their absence). Apparently, the manufacturer decided to take into account this nuance.

In the new summer tires of 2016, soils appeared. They are located in the side and central regions. In the design, a significant drawback from the last model was removed - separation partitions in the center. They almost completely leveled the expected effect of primer. Now this problem is solved. But more truthful results should be expected at least by the middle of the summer. "

Evgeny, Moscow, 32 years old

"I decided to acquire Nokian Hakka Green 2 as summer tires. First, I got acquainted with the results of tests from "driving." After installation were tested under spring conditions. At first glance, tires behave well - the braking path has decreased, confidence of turns are felt. Side hooks allow you to overcome slush, do not allow you to get stuck in the mud.

The only negative point is a relatively high noise level. But it is felt only when leaving for the primer. Most likely, it is associated with a tread pattern. But this is my subjective opinion. "

Roman, Kaluga, 28 years

About Continental ContipRemiumContact 5

"Put on his Lancer 6 Continental ContipRemiumContact 5. The first impressions are the summer tires are very quiet. Perfectly respond to turns. When driving on puddles at 80 km / h, the effect of aquaplaning was not observed. I tried to accelerate up to 100 km / h - the tire helps ABS. Regarding wear, I can not say anything yet - too small mileage.

Confidently feel in a rut. When you enter the speed at a rotation of 90 degrees, the drift was not observed at all, did not even be powered. "

Sergey, St. Petersburg, 38 years

"Summer tires are simply" flying ": yes, they are expensive, but the quality of the manufacture and reliability of the hook with an expensive at the highest level. I noticed that they were practically silent, perfectly behave on the wet track.

However, after checking emergency braking from 140 km / h to 0, there was a small wrettle on the central part. I hope that this will not greatly affect further operation. "

Vladimir, Stavropol, 30 years

About Goodyear EfficientGrip. Performance.

"Our company purchased Goodyear tires EfficientGrip Performance. For service cars - Opel "Vivaro". Despite the soft coating, the clutch with the road is good, noise at the minimum level. Positively affect the savings of gasoline. On one of the cars after 2000, two small snaps appeared on the side of the tread. While they did nothing with them.

Especially pleased the braking path. I had to make an emergency stop, so the tires in the complex with ABS showed a good result "

"In general, the Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance model, I can estimate 4.5 out of 5. well ride on wet and dry asphalt, wear-resistant. I tried to ride the grass and the soil - the result was satisfied. For the season, there was no "sensible" not a single "bump", although I often went and not quite on the roads.

Disadvantage - over time the noise level increases. And this noted not only me. "

Article 2. What is the summer tires better?

When to overweight the car on summer tires in 2016?

This question is relevant annually. But disassemble the details of the answer to this question will not be superfluous, and for someone may be open new facts that are sole
Light on the problem. Go! When to change tires on the summer in 2016?

So, first, it is necessary to take into account the geographical location of the region. On the territory of the Russian Federation, winter comes unevenly, and, it means that you need to follow the forecasts of weather conditions.

Secondly, it is important to take into account your geography of trips. If you go in the total flow of traffic jams and through the central highways - there are all the chances that the asphalt in those places dry and summer tires will have to be placed here as a velcro. If your trips are impossible to predict and plan - do not hurry to rebuild your vehicle. In the courtyards, the puddles are often covered with an icy crust, separate sections of the roads outside the city can also sin the same.

In addition, you should not forget the main thing - the change of rubber is better to spend after the moment when the temperature of +5 degrees will be kept steadily for several nights. It is with her that it remains puddles, and the properties of the clutch of summer rubber with the road are maximally revealed.

Is it possible to ride on summer tires in winter?

After the past 2015, the answer to this question became unequivocal. Ride on rubber not appropriate season season is prohibited. It is important to note that, given the peculiarities of the weather conditions of individual regions of Russia, the traffic police may increase the terms of use winter rubber. It is clearly clear that it is not worth puzzled after the end of the calendar winter.

But, on the other hand, there is no direct punishment for this offense. After all, it is definitely stratum only for tires with a low residual tread height or the presence of different tires on one axis. And for the use of a car with summer tires in winter, a fine may be charged with a size of 500 rubles. And the inspector has the right to endure a warning. It all depends on the human factor.

As a result, we get a controversial situation - if in the winter to go on summer tires from the tread depth, which is settled in the norm for this type of car, then the inspector will confirm this fact, but it will not write a fine for summer tires in the winter of 2016.

However, the situation at the legislative level may change at any time.
Considering the control of the car on the summer tires in the winter, it is worth remembering that it is dangerous. This is especially true of drivers with small experience in driving a vehicle. Also in an emergency, except for itself and its vehicle, you can harm the other participant in the movement. Therefore, press the car on the tires on the tires, and do not save on security.

When questions related to the exploitation of summer rubber, became authorized, it is necessary to move to the selection of the tires themselves.

Summer Rubber Rating 2015 - 2016 publishes the journal "Driving"

This publication presents the models of tires from the most popular manufacturers - Kama Euro and Cordiant, to top models from global firms - Michelin and Pirelli. Also, models from Goodyear, Nokian, Hankook, Continental, Goodyear, Toyo and Bridgestone were presented.

So, let's start considering the main indicators. Let's start considering from the end, namely from the model KAMA EURO 129..

Rubber is really created with regard to roads in Russia - durable and increased wear resistance. From here there are positive results when passing a gauge and confident departure from there. But only the transition to a good asphalt coating impairs the results. There is an excessive noise, with sharp maneuvers in emergency situations does not behave in the best way. Hence the low assessment and last place of the rating.

The only indisputable advantage that manages Kama Euro is a price policy. A set of 4 tires is the most affordable of all presented on the test.

CORDIANT SPORT 3. - Next instance in this rating. The pricing policy of this manufacturer is close to the most accessible. Depending on the place of sale, prices are on a par with KAMA. This model is aimed at movement on asphalt coating, which applied to us is the Sport Prefix and the appearance of the tread. From here, there are already two negative points - pebbles often remain in the protective and add unpleasant sounds in motion, and in motion off-road it is easy to sit even in the sand. At the conclusion of experts "driving", this is an example of an affordable model that does not surprise with its characteristics and is suitable for a measured movement of the average car owner.

BRIDGESTONE ECOPIA EP200. - One of the common models in the variety of the Great Tire Manufacturer. By the way, they are produced in Thailand. With their tests on test vehicles, increased fuel consumption was noticed, as well as low coupling properties with sharp maneuvers in an emergency situation both dry and on wet asphalt. Otherwise, during the operation of these tires in an urban feature without extreme loads, this is the most optimal value for the price and balanced operational characteristics.

Toyo Proxes CF2.. Test drivers This model has noted a reduced fuel consumption. In addition, this is the most affordable instance with the inscription "Made in Japan". Otherwise, it shows excellent results on the asphalt coating, but absolutely useless in off-road conditions and even sand.

Nokian Nordman SX. became a sensation in the category "price-quality". The model shows cool handling and no noise, and also the lack of increased fuel consumption. There are practically no clear flaws.

Hankook Ventus Prime 2. It was this copy that opened a re-driver properties of the car and the first was pleased with all the parameters of controllability and comfort. Only the price may truly upset, as well as their operation on off-road, judging by the reviews of the owners, often led to damage.

Michelin Primacy 3. Opens the four winners. The model will delight with clear handling regardless of whether the wet or dry asphalt on the road, as well as for all other items, among which there is no noise, reduced fuel consumption and comfort in motion.

Goodyear EfficientGrip Performance. - Model of the German bus manufacturer, which is better than all (and even the test leader) showed handling on wet asphalt. And if you move the car on these tires on dry asphalt - there is something to worry about. Coupling properties here is clearly not in order. But all this can manifest itself only in extreme situations. With peaceful driving in the city stream, you will get comfort for a fully accessible amount.

Nokian Hakka Blue. - The mild rubber, which showed balanced indicators for controllability and comfort on all coatings. Surprisingly combines excellent handling on all variants of asphalt coating.

And finally, the model of the Italian leader of the tire industry was the unconditional leader - Pirelli Cinturato P7.. The model stands out in all indicators of tests, as well as individual sellers can delight the price tag.

What summer tires are better according to reviews?

By asking this question, a little different rating is drawn, in contrast to what is obtained by the testes of the journal "driving".

Almost unanimously all owners of tires Nordman SX. They mark their excellent characteristics when combined with an affordable price. Perhaps the last factor is achieved by carrying its production in Russia.

• "Enjoyed 195/65 / R15. Due to the presence of longitudinal grooves, no problems are opposed to the aquaplaning. Not a single hernia for 30,000 km, where on Barum 3 things caught. And also quieter the Cordian and Barum Diamondis - they were that this model. With even driving, first of all, on the highway, if evaluating the wear indicator, erased half. I am glad." Andrew

• "Departure two seasons, satisfied with tires! By rating in the journal "Over the Rule", it is they who occupy 1st place in the price-quality group, so they took them. Simply put, I advise! Cheaper and S. best characteristics Nothing to find! " Serega

• "Unmatched rubber! Chose between her and the Chinese brand. As already understood, she preferred it, because psychologically not ready to trust Chinese brands. Rubber for the year demonstrated themselves be healthy - cuts water at times, turns on the wet asphalt 100-120 km / h - easily (faster I am afraid), in a straight line 160 - the road holds. " Vicer

• "Holds the road well! In the rain never felt Avcaplaning, even when on the highway from a slide went into a huge kalyuve for 120 km / h! Durable, I thought a couple of times that I would like to see herriation - but no, survived. At the start clings perfectly. We must try to get the sound of squeal! And the turns are inseparable confidently, even when loading cars in 4 people + baggage. " Arthur

Also model OT. Michelin. I liked the car owners. Unfortunately, the price tag is not democratic, but the tires will pay the operational characteristics.

Here are the words of the real owners of Michelin Primacy 3:

• "This rubber is quieter and softer any bridgestone and even softer pilot. From here and the main, and braking. But this will all manifest on the track. In the city and on the track - a premium business! All with it - handling, acoustic and other comfort! At first, there was not enough on the braking, but then I pulled this habit. I recently put the wheels with this rubber on the third season. " San

• "Rubber justifies the cost of all items. For the sake of the experiment, I wanted to put the wheels on the smaller diameter in order to achieve comfort and put rubber with a large profile. As a result, the R16 disks bought this Michelin. Rad like an elephant! In all the conditions of the tires have proven themselves brilliantly! And in the city, and outside the city, that in places where the asphalt saw no one, the car rides very softly! The suspension calmly transfers the bumpiness, and I only hear the breeze on the track, because noise from her at least! From the first days, like Primacy 3, Namig drew attention to the fact that the car began to slow down much more confident. If you compare with Continental Sport, then this Michelin is better in all respects! " Toh.

• "Tikhonya. Soft. Cool keeps the road under any weather conditions. Flaws never found. " Alexander

And if the reviews about the question "What summer tires is better?" Add the wheel diameter by 16 inches?

The picture is drawn similar, because "driving" tested on a golf class car. And if there is a rubber in the dimension R15, all sizes and R16 are necessarily available. Such a law for a tire company.

Here are examples of reviews about Michelin Primacy 3 in dimension R16:

• "Driving style calm. I drive Focus 2 on the 205th rubber R16. Hornly glad, I like everything! For 2 seasons, there were 10-15 thousand km, and rubber in a good state. If you save driving style - another pair of seasons is provided. " Zheka

• "The too soft and quiet, on dry asphalt super keeps the road! Of course, an important price is important, and it has a full order with it. And the tire recorder noted that it is well balanced. " Oleg

Complete this article, Note that any rubber is good with a relaxed driving style and movement along smooth coatings. If you have deviations on one of these items - make a choice from the variety presented on the market.

5. Italian perfection - Pirelli

8. World Market Elder - Yokohama

Today, Yokohama produces rubber for any type of vehicles. Thanks to the big range and high quality Products, the company is very popular on a salespring, which gives a high advantage of the brand, as well as many positive feedback from motorists.

For every motorist in front of the winter season, it is not a simple choice - what winter tires are better to buy. From this depends on the safety of movement, people's lives and compliance with the law as a whole. According to clause 5.5 of Annex No. 8 of the Customs Union, the law stipulates the obligatory time to drive in winter tires from December to February of each year. However, weather conditions in our country every year are different, and the snow can "lie" back in October, and go away at the end of January. That is why the period of mandatory "Pereobuppa" define regional authorities. Allowed both untouvented winter tires and spikes. Rules of PDD The mandatory tread size is governed and the size of winter tires itself for each car.

In addition to creating traffic safety, the presence of spikes (as the authorities consider) creates a threat to a modern road surface on which there is no snow. This leads to the destruction of the layers of the road, so traffic police officers carefully check the "shoes" of passenger cars in the off-season.

If you all know about winter tires, you chose a model and want to buy winter tires - go to the store "Wheels for nothing"- Verified! More than once ordered on it, prices are always more profitable than others . Large selection of tires, discs and various automobiles. The order can be made online with delivery even to the regions.

New or used winter tires

In addition to a wide variety of tire manufacturers in the store, car enthusiasts choose between new wheels and used. And those and others have their pros and cons.

Such wheels are guaranteed not to sweep at the first ride (in the case of high-quality production). If this happened - they can be returned under warranty. New tires will serve longer without repair, they will not be difficult to install new spikes if there is such an opportunity. It is difficult for some models of cars to find used tires, so you have to buy or order only a new product. The only drawback is a high price. But it turns into a plus, if you consider data in the ratio of depreciation and the service life of the new rubber.

If you need to buy winter tires, many car owners first turn to popular sites that sell goods that used. There the owner indicates how much time the wheels were exploited. Information is presented with words, it is impossible to verify the authenticity of information, so the buyer has to believe. The price of winter tires that have already been used by another car owner will be lower than on new products. But when registering the average service life from 2 to 4 seasons, as a result, such an acquisition is unprofitable.

What winter tires are better

As already mentioned, the tires for the winter can be studded and awakened. Between them the difference is not only in the presence of spikes.

• Scandinavian winter tire- Created for maximum clutch with snow-covered or icing road surface. It has an average drawing depth from 8 to 10 mm, with a discharged effect. The drawing is applied in checker, rectangular or diamond patterns. The protector is equipped with lamellas. Between the pattern is a long distance. Such a form is created to maintain the surface;
• European winter tire - Created to move on a wet road from rain or snow. All slopes are thin, with a large number of water channels.

Spikes on such tires are located in a different order, depending on the manufacturer. Most often they can be 2 species: round or rhombid. The most reliable are "recessed" in the coating. They are deeply embarrassed, while the tip on the side of the outer part is strongly acting and well interacts with the road.

Interesting fact! In some countries, the use of spikes on wheels is prohibited.

The spikes can help in adhesion with an ice and snow-covered road, but during the rain, they can travel on the contrary, increasing the braking path. The spikes add noise and quickly fly when driving over the surface without snow and ice.

Often heard the definition of "All-season rubber". Such products are actively used in Europe, but in the harsh Russian climate they are not suitable for use. The ranking of the best winter tires for Russians consists of studded and non-studded wheels, for which it is worth navigating.

The French winter rubber manufacturer is quite popular throughout Russia. Mischlen winter tires have several linepecs specifically for harsh weather with a negative temperature regime.

MICHELIN X ICE Winter Tire Line is designed by the unique "APS: Adaptability" system. It allows rubber to fuse only in the right places, fixing the position of the car on the road. MICHELIN X ICE 3 Winter tires lamella are made in Z - shaped, shoulder zone with sharp edges. This allows you to get out of a car equipped with such rubber from any snowy "porridge", the wheels just grind the substance by throwing it back and pushing the car forward without driving.

Cordiant Snow Cross - Rubber for compact and middle class cars. Stabilization of maneuverability is created due to the V-shaped pattern of the tread and the contact spot, which removes moisture from the tire. Tire Cordiant Snow Cross is not suitable for winter with air temperature above +5 degrees. This does not apply to the beginning of the offseason - despite the "porridge" on the roads, at night often freezing and the use of studded rubber is necessary. But if such a winter throughout the season, and the asphalt is not covered with snow at all, this model is not suitable for use. When moving along the road without a snow cover creates a strong noise, it is rapidly flashed, the spikes are rapidly flying away.
