Buhammers are excellent vehicles for hunting, fishing and for those who live by the "gifts of the forest" - they collect mushrooms and berries for delivery. The seats in the back are simply immeasurable, it is easy to take 5-7 people to the wilderness. However, from the factory, absolutely inappropriate tires are installed on the car - the all-season Kama-219. In fact, it is neither fish nor meat - it is not normal to drive through the mud, nor on the highway or on a winter road.

Well, if you want to get deeper into the forest off-road, the tires will definitely need to be changed. Therefore, in this article we will make a selection of mud tires of the minimum and maximum sizewhich can be installed on the Loaf.

So, the stock tires are 225/75 / R16, in inches it will be 29.3 ″. Thirty inches for a loaf is just tears, it is highly desirable to make at least a minimal revision of the car in order to install at least 32 ″ tires. And as soon as it goes, you'll get to 35 ″ - this size is more than optimal, ground clearance will increase very realistically. But let's not talk about the elevator and cutting arches for now, for a start we will consider what kind of rubber there is in the size of 225/75 / R16 and close to this, but not requiring modifications.

Cordiant Off Road

The all-round mud rubber that revolutionized the off-road world. Completely won the lowest price segment, because there are practically no competitors. Available in the size of 225/75 / R16, for the money everything is fine, the tires are worth their money completely.

For the initial off-road and go fishing this size and this rubber is quite enough. This is purely mud tires, and it is highly discouraged to ride on it in winter. Rows smartly in the mud, however, the "slippers" are extremely oak and it will be uncomfortable to pick out on a specific off-road. In general, it can be recommended for those who do not want to bother with car modifications. As they say - set it down, sat down and drove off. You will go much further than on the Kama-219.

Contyre Expedition

One-to-one tread pattern with Cordiants, as well as with the first goodrich. Also available in the standard Bukhanov size. However, the Contyres are really better than the Cords, because they are noticeably lighter and softer. However, the size here is slightly smaller than the stated one, so in comparison with Korda you will lose about half a centimeter in clearance. For a standard tire size, this is not critical at all, so instead of Cordov it is quite possible to put a Contyr Expedition.

Cooper Discoverer STT

A chic American mud car, however, it is quite expensive and it is highly discouraged to put such expensive tires in such a small size. If you have already decided to put Cooper, then here is the normal size for a Loaf - 265/75 / R15, in inches it is 30.6 ″.

To install everything, you need to cut the arches, you won't even need to do any elevator. However, if you decide to put standard size - there is also a Cooper 225/75/16. However, size 265 is essentially optimal. If we increase the size even more, then we look towards the increase in the profile - 80 and 85.

On the 16th discs there are tires of excellent size, for the installation of which the machine will have to be prepared a little. An elevator or cutting arches, and even very large sizes - both.

Omskshina Ya-192

Legendary "pyataks", purely Uazovskaya tires for tru uazovodov. The size is unusual - 215/90 / R15 (in inches it is 30.2 ″). Narrow and high tire, very often you can see her on Loaves, Hunters and 469s. Classics of the Oise genre. Excellent rowing of dirt, and if you cut it, it starts digging like an excavator. It is installed without any alterations at all, put it and went. Great budget option. To whom the already excellent cross-country ability of these tires is not enough, "nickels" may well cut through one side block - there will generally be fire!

Omskshina Ya-245

Another classic of the genre, by the tread pattern, of course, you cannot say that the tire is passable, but Uazovody are an enterprising people, and therefore they manage to make an "all-terrain" out of such rubber - for this it is enough just to cut the tires correctly. The cut I-245 is really similar to the Simex Jungle Trekker 2. The size of "Yashki" - 215/90 / R15 (30.2 ″), it is most often bought “for cutting” - great optionhow to put extreme rubber on Buhammer at a low price. We highly recommend it.

BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T / A KM2

The new model of goodrichs, which replaced the T / A KM. An excellent size for Buhu - 265/75 / R16, in inches it is already 31.6 ″. To install such good rubber, you can only limit yourself to sharp arches. Goodrich of this modification is specially designed for mountainous areas, for stones and serpentines. However, it kneads dirt well, but if you compare it with extreme rubber, then the difference will be simply colossal. Considering that this size of Goodrich will cost you a very serious amount, it is better to add a little more and put Simex (about them below).

For off-road fans who have decided to prepare the Bukhanther more seriously, we recommend paying attention to the R15 rubber, there is much more choice. However, let's agree right away - we are not afraid to cut the arches and set the resume to 30-32 ″)) In this part of the selection, we will consider rubber in the amount of 30-32 ″ on R15 disks.

Federal Couragia M / T

Available in sizes 265/75 / R15 (30.6 ″) and 255/80 / R15 (31.1 ″). Who needs it, there are also large sizes.

It is optimal to take the second one - a little more clearance, and the improvements are exactly the same - just cutting the arches. Those who do not want to cut arches can make an elevator, but remember that out of 2 evils (cutting or elevator), the elevator is several times worse, since the controllability and safety on turns and rolls deteriorate.

Dried apricots are a serious MUD rubber, not extreme, but much better than Goodrich in cross-country ability. Very soft, and therefore perfectly flattened off-road. Still, it's rare to get into the wilderness without grass wheels. Couragia M / T is not pop, it is serious tires, on which offroaders on the Oise won the competition, making even cars with extreme training and the same tires.

Well, of course, consider the "extreme" class rubber in large sizes - for prepared machines only. Cutting arches, lifting the suspension or bodywork - all this will need to be done in order to install these "chic" sneakers, which also stand quite well.

Forward Safari 500

The analogue of the famous Simex is purely extreme rubber, our domestic one, and therefore very cheap compared to imported analogs. The only size is 265/75 / R15. From the pros - gorgeous digs dirt, clay, does not get dirty, inexpensive. Of the minuses - very oak and azzy heavy. As a budget option for those who want to seriously increase cross-country ability without critical investments.

Simex Extreme Trekker 2

Size 275/80 / R15 - in inches it is already 32.3 ″. A serious size, and the rubber itself is just fire. A classic of the off-road genre, everyone wants to put it, but not everyone has the financial capabilities, because the rubber itself will cost from 50k per set, and even the preparation of the car will result in certain monetary expenses.

Simex Jungle Trekker 2

Jungle is a very desirable rubber, just top class. They are really good in the mud, pure extreme class. The side lugs are simply monstrous, thanks to them it gets out of the rut without any problems at all. There are simply not many advantages, but there are no disadvantages at all. So if you are looking for extreme all-terrain tires for Loaf - pay attention to Jungle Trekker. The only thing - keep in mind that the dimensions are really huge. The minimum is 31 × 9.5-16, the minimum for R15 is 31 × 9.5-16. Therefore, in order to put the Dzhangly - Loaf, you will have to specifically refine it. However, if you do this, you will be able to leave in such a jungle where no one except you will get))

Reliable and practical UAZ vehicles are popular in our country. The lineup is wide enough. The cars themselves are very unpretentious and have great opportunities in terms of cross-country ability and movement on off-road sections. Additionally, SUV models are equipped with components that are designed to improve the already high driving performance. One of them is UAZ off-road tires. However, it is necessary to correctly approach the choice.

To understand this issue, it is necessary to take into account many very different points. It is also important to pay attention to the characteristics of certain tires. And, of course, know what all-season tires are.

What tires are suitable for UAZ?

For example, for UAZ 33 models and many other similar cars, powerful, hardy tires are suitable. They will be able to cope with the colossal loads that an SUV provides. There are many different options available in car stores today. And if you need to find something you need, sometimes you can even get confused. Road tires are also suitable for UAZs. It is versatile and quite durable. It can be used both on the track and on bad roads. On the off-road, it simply won't be of much use - mud models are required here.

Main parameters of mud tires

Any SUV owner must be aware that rubber intended for dirt can significantly affect factors such as handling, speed, and off-road capability. The same goes for performance. By choosing mud tires on UAZ, it is important to take into account the required size of the tire, its tread pattern, carrying capacity. When choosing such a rubber, it is important to immediately know which roads you will have to drive.

If the car will be used in sands and swampy areas, then softer options should be chosen. If the road is littered with stones, then something tougher will do. Important parameter - protector. High-quality and reliable, softened tire has a tree-shaped pattern. The harder ones, intended for dirt, will be indicated by a pattern consisting of large blocks. Real mud tires must be MUD marked.

Classification

First of all, you need to know exactly what kind of tires are. You should also take into account the criteria by which you can stop at any of the options. In general, all tires differ in the pattern of the treadmill, the type of road surface, and the season.

So, there are tires aimed at UAZ, asymmetric type and non-directional. According to the type of roadbed, there are highway, road, universal and high strength products. Seasonal - winter, summer and all-season. There are also other parameters by which tires can be classified. One of the most important indicators is coverage. Rubber can be road or road. These tires are characterized by good flotation on asphalt. Also on a hard surface, the products have excellent adhesion. These tires are labeled HT.

Also, rubber differs in noise level and moisture removal. However, these tires are not suitable for winter. The product does not have the necessary characteristics to be able to drive a car on snow or ice. Universal models or those that are suitable for most roads are marked with AT. It is important to remember that these tires are not intended to be used all year round. Feature - large tread pattern.

Mud models are designated M / T. They are made for driving in bad or even extreme conditions. Such models were installed on a military UAZ and vehicles intended for hunting or fishing. The features by which they can be distinguished are a sufficiently deep tread, a large distance between the studs, as well as lugs. The latter make it easier to pass through in deep mud. These tires make a lot of noise when driving. You can also add to this classification sports modification tires.

This rubber is most suitable for those who practically do not travel in the countryside. I took a similar type of products from both road modifications and universal versions. It must be remembered that they are also not intended for winter use.

Cordiant OffRoad

This is a versatile tire that at one time became a revolutionary product. Models managed to conquer the segment available tires, and her competitors are completely absent. These products fully justify their price. This offroad tires - great choice, if you need to get on the off-road fishing of the entry level of difficulty. The model is completely muddy, so it is better not to use it for winter. When it comes to driving through mud, everything is perfect here.

But on a serious off-road with these tires it will be uncomfortable. This is the choice of those who do not want to deal with car modifications.

Contyre Expedition and Cooper Discoverer STT

Contyre Expedition tread pattern - a copy of the model from Cordiant. The tires fit the Loaf as standard. The product performs better than Cordiant. In addition, their rubber is light and soft. The size is slightly smaller than that stated by the manufacturer. If the choice is Cordiant or Contyre, then the latter is definitely better.

As for that, this is a chic American-made off-road rubber. Its price is quite high. Therefore, you should not install it in standard size... It is recommended to use 265/75 / R15 tire. For installation, you just need to trim the wheel arches. It is the perfect choice for the 469 model.

Ya-245 from Omskshina and Forward Safari 500

The first model is a classic. Although you can't tell by the tread pattern. But the owners of UAZ vehicles know that these tires can be used to make an all-terrain vehicle. It is enough to cut the tire. The size is standard, but they are purchased specifically for cutting. At the same time, Forward Safari 500 is a real extreme option from a domestic manufacturer.

The price is very affordable. The size is the only and standard for the UAZ-452 car. Among the advantages is excellent cross-country ability on mud. Among the downsides is a hard and very heavy tire. A budget option.

Tire UAZ "Bear": for moderate off-road

This rubber YAShZ-569 is very popular. The product is suitable for use in moderate off-road conditions. Of course, if off-road driving is not the main task. "Bear" is suitable for UAZ Patriot, Niva, and UAZ 33. However, they are not recommended to be used for UAZ-469, as well as for Hunter and Patriot. In this case, the tire is smaller than necessary. One should not expect much efficiency from them. But if you buy a suitable disc, then it is quite possible to install it on the "Loaf".

These tires can provide a fairly high level of comfort on asphalt, but are not suitable for daily use. The rubber has an off-road tread pattern. The first places in the rally-raids were won on these tires. You can also often see a military UAZ, shod with this rubber. The owners claim that it is a good choice... So, the tread is quite serious, the tire is normally cleaned of dirt. But the minus is that it is low, about 30 inches. Tire width - 235. A car on the road with "Bear" is more stable than with standard tires.

Tires Ya-471

This model, like the "Bear", is produced on a tubeless tire and has serious advantages. The car moves very gently with it. If there are joints on the asphalt, these UAZ tires simply swallow them. Also, the model has excellent directional stability. The tread pattern allows you to overcome even difficult terrain. Many people like that with these tires the car takes on a unique, combat look. It would seem that wider tires should yield to narrow ones. However, in this case, this is not at all the case.

The tire is installed on standard wheels, can be mounted on a camera. If the first option is used, then the rubber should be installed only with a camera. On forged can be used without it. In summer, it is a reliable option, but in winter, all its effectiveness is reduced to zero. Also, those who have managed to use the model claim that the tires are difficult to balance. Despite the fact that most of them install these tires on UAZ with standard disks and then drive without any problems, this is not entirely correct. This nuance is very important. The width of the disc must be greater than the width of the rubber. So, for this tire, it is at least 7 inches. In short, the model is reliable in many ways. But if there is a tractor track ahead, and before that there was a downpour, then it is better not to risk it. It is said that this option is poorly controlled on mud.

Winter tires for UAZ

UAZs are driven a lot and often. Most of them change from Niva. And there is something to love about these models - high ground clearance, excellent cross-country ability and many other advantages. People think about buying a winter one when there is frost outside the window. There is no special time to choose. Therefore, people go to stores and buy what is on the counter. This approach is fundamentally wrong. In stores, very often they offer only what urgently needs to be sold. Often the owners of "Bukhanok" prefer domestic products.

Many people buy I-192. She has a serious appearanceand the tread pattern is quite aggressive. As for winter use, such a tire slips and is very dangerous. Not suitable for the cold season. But winter tires for "Patriot" are available in a wide range. And since the standard size of the Loaf's wheels is 225/75 / R16, it is quite possible to apply these models not only on it, but also on other cars.

Nokian SUV and Hankook i Pike RW11

The Nokian SUV is an improved version of the previous model that has received many good reviews.

Last year, the tire managed to show that it was not done in vain. But you must remember that this is a budget solution. Suitable for winter in both studded and non-studded versions.

The same cannot be said for the Hankook i Pike RW11. There are no thorns here. This is the so-called Velcro. Rubber released korean manufacturer... The product is quite high quality and is offered at affordable prices. The tire can be purchased at a price of 3 to 10 thousand rubles per unit. She has a lot of positive reviews. The model performs well in winter - even in deep snow, on a rolled surface or on asphalt. This tire is optimal for cities, but it will not fail off-road.

Conclusion

Here is such a choice of rubber for UAZ cars today. In general, there is something to think about. There are also budget solutions for the city, there are also options for extreme lovers. There is even a good choice winter tires... Thus, your SUV will be on full alert all year round. You just have to choose the right tires and change your vehicles on time.

Tuning all-terrain vehicle UAZ 469

Almost all UAZ cars are SUVs and all-terrain vehicles, and every owner of such a car dreams of wheels of the corresponding type. Standard factory wheels on UAZ do not allow cars to demonstrate all their off-road capabilities. The maximum they can do is travel along city roads and suburban bumps.

Although, for example, the UAZ 469 car is intended for more serious tests, such as a real taiga with swamps, swamps and hills.

Are big wheels always good for UAZ?

Undoubtedly, by changing standard tires to large ones, the driver hopes to improve the driving performance of his car. Men dream that their UAZ 469 will look more brutal, and beautiful wheels will complement the picture of a powerful exterior. Sometimes the car owner himself does not understand why he needs it. Just need to do big wheels, and that's it.

A change in the diameter of the wheel by more than 5 cm is considered significant, because a smaller size does not give any noticeable rearrangements. In addition, a slight increase in the wheel does not require an obligatory change in the design of the car and does not in any way affect undercarriage and manageability. But if you increase the tire size by 10% or more, then the car's behavior becomes completely different. The increase in wheels on the UAZ 469 primarily leads to costs related not only to the purchase of wheels and tires. We have to interfere with other elements of the car.

What are the advantages of large wheels for the UAZ 469?

1. Increased vehicle clearance. Due to this, the cross-country ability is improved and the angle of entry to high elevations increases.
2. Better grip on a wider tire. This improves off-road, snowy and sandy terrain.
3. Large tires have an impressive thickness, so it is very difficult to damage them mechanically.
4. Due to the structure of such wheels, the likelihood of disk damage is reduced.
5. Increased wear resistance, due to which the tire will last almost 2 times longer than the standard one.

It's harder to keep balance on wheels like this

What are the disadvantages of such large wheels?

1. Without preliminary preparation of the car for external changes, changing standard standard wheels can lead to imbalance. The load on the transmission increases and the resource of its parts decreases.
2. The engine's ability to quickly accelerate the car is reduced. This is due to the reduction in the gear ratio due to the increase in the wheel diameter. This is especially noticeable if the motor already has little power.
3. Getting on a rut, a car with big wheels resists her worse.
4. The braking system is less efficient.
5. Fuel consumption increases and the speedometer often lies.
6. Not every tire changer specializes in the repair of such wheels.
7. The prices for large wheels are significantly higher than for standard ones.

Characteristics of standard tires for UAZ 469

Standard tires for any UAZ car have their own characteristics, as they are considered light trucks. The machine itself has an increased cross-country ability and the wheels, respectively, must be the same. It is important that the ride on an ordinary road is also comfortable, so any wheel on a UAZ should be universal. In addition, tires must meet quality requirements. Every driver hopes that the tires will last at least 2-3 seasons.

When choosing wheels, a motorist first of all pays attention to the classification of rubber. It is divided into types according to purpose:

• for asphalt and flat road;
• off-road (use outside the city);
• winter special tires for off-road vehicles with the 4x4 formula.

Standard tire size for UAZ

Since the UAZ 469 is intended not only for urban asphalt road, but also for off-road, the main part of which is dirt, special attention is paid to the presence of MUD markings on the tire. This designation indicates the ability of the tire to overcome dirt, clay, swamps and swamps without problems.

Before changing the standard factory tires of a UAZ car for larger and more powerful ones, you need to consult with specialists and prepare the car for changes.

Rubber options for UAZ vehicles

Foreign manufacturers.

1. Mud Terrain. Wheels specially designed for difficult off-road areas. They are distinguished by their special strength and endurance. Available in the 15-16.5 inch range.
2. Tires of the Continental company. Excellent on sandy and muddy roads. The cost is cheaper than previous tires, but also inferior to them in strength and endurance. Sizes range from 17 to 25 inches.
3. Mickey Thompson Baja CLAW Radials have an aggressive look. Designed to overcome difficult dirt off-road sections.
4. Pirelli scorpion MUD are tires specially designed for UAZ vehicles. They have a high sports potential. This type of rubber is chosen for participation in international rallies. It copes well with slippery roads and ordinary asphalt. It has a good quiet tread and keeps perfect stability even at high speed.

Domestic analogues.

Tire tread Bel 24

1. Ф 201. Product of Volzhsky tire factory... The tire is a low-profile diagonal. The specific pattern provides high cross-country ability in both directions (forward and backward) in off-road and snow conditions. Provides high stability and tremendous grip. Cannot withstand high speeds, therefore it is intended only for travelers.
2. And 502 Nizhnekamsk manufacturers. Excellent cross-country ability on any road, good stability, high resistance to mechanical damage, low level noise. All-season tires handle both ice and wet snow.
3. And 520. They are especially soft and dynamic. These wheels are ideal for UAZ 469 vehicles. Good behavior both on clean asphalt and on wet sand. They do not slip in the mud.
4. And 506. Has self-cleaning properties. Copes well with any snow. Resistant to mechanical damage. Anti-slip spikes can be used in winter. Of the shortcomings, owners of UAZ 469 cars note increased rigidity in I506 rubber.
5. Bel 24. Tires are practically silent. Confidently hold the road. Sand, snow, clay, ice are passing by, overcoming a large track.

All types of tires have their own advantages and disadvantages. Each car owner chooses tires based on their personal requirements and capabilities. Someone succeeds in choosing the first time, while others find the perfect tires by trial and error. In addition, someone needs an UAZ as a city guide, and someone needs it as a country all-terrain vehicle.

But buying UAZ wheels is not even half the battle. They need to be installed correctly, and on top of that, and be able to take care of them. If tires are purchased second-hand, they will require special attention.

Rubber on UAZ is a very dreary and extensive topic, which I have not yet touched upon. Today we will try to understand this difficult issue. There are a couple about rubber good articles, including on the website http://www.uazbuka.ru. I decided to compose the material from there and present it in a more convenient form. So…

“These guys need to get to more important places than you. Take care of the rubber. Check your tires IMMEDIATELY. "

The first article tells about "foreign" tires on the UAZ З

"Foreign" tires for UAZ

Only tires of the Mud Terrain class are able to instill unlimited confidence in the owner of an SUV.
These tires are designed from the ground up to tackle the toughest off-road terrain, although they are not forbidden to ride on normal roads. Efficiency when driving on the most different types soils, sufficient traction to overcome mud and ford, "puncture-proof", strength and movement at any inflation pressure - for this all Mud Terrain tires are loved by avid hunters and anglers, as well as off-road driving enthusiasts.

BFGoodrich Radial Mud Terrain T / A rubber.

Radial tubeless tire with triple protective polymer cord. It has a developed and balanced set of off-road qualities and for many jeepers serves as a kind of benchmark for comparison. Mud Terrain T / A is hardy (mileage under normal road conditions can reach 40-50 thousand km) and is produced in a wide range (nine sizes for 15 "discs, 6 sizes for 16, two for 16.5).
Cooper Discoverer STT. An off-road tire of a famous and popular brand in America. In terms of some off-road qualities, it is inferior to the previous one, but more versatile. It loses a little in strength and endurance, but it is cheaper (though, if we take into account, again, prices in the USA). It is also produced in a very wide range (10 sizes for 15 "rims, 13 x 16, 3 x 16.5, there are even sizes for 17 and 14" rims).

General Tire Grabber MT rubber.

This tire is manufactured by the Continental group of companies. It has proven itself well on sandy roads (the optimal ratio of the square of the "checkers" to the depth of the grooves), copes well with dirt (self-cleaning tread) and is not afraid of stony roads (new super-strong rubber compound). Noisy on the asphalt. It is produced so far only in the six most popular "jeep" sizes.
Goodyear Wrangler MT / R. As soon as it appeared, this novelty was immediately called by experts "a new word in dirty business." It has enormous grip on the mud, works great at lowered, comfortable on normal road. Goodyear has incorporated the very best technology in MT / R (silicone rubber compound, polymer three-layer sidewall, enhanced protection against punctures, a special cord design that forms an impressive "paw" of the contact patch) and therefore ranked it, no less than the State-of-the-Art category of things (well, it's kind of like "The best is not necessary").

Mickey Thompson Baja CLAW Radial rubber.

Another novelty. Aggressive appearance provokes the same off-road style. Powerful oblique mud evacuation ditches in the tread allow attacking deep mud literally from the raid without the risk of "surfacing" and loss of inertia, and the elastic rubber compound and strong cord provide the tire with passability over stones and cobblestones. The tire is not cheap and is available in only 4 sizes so far.

Tires for UAZ Pirelli Scorpion MUD.

Even a "peaceful"-looking tire like this one encompasses all the great sporting and technological experience that Pirelli has gained in international rally-raids. Scorpion MUD behaves well on soft soils, copes well with slippery roads, and on ordinary concrete or asphalt it goes comfortably and without unnecessary noise, maintaining good directional stability even at a high speed for an SUV (130-140 km / h).

Rubber for UAZ YaI-357A

YaI-357 is a radial version of the UAZ non-military rubber Ya-245. Accordingly, it should behave the same way off-road, but slightly better at highway speeds.

I bought a UAZ with this rubber, I left for over a year. I think this is a good radial model, good in winter and summer. I don't want to switch to another model of rubber, and then I will only buy it.

YaI-357 (215-90R15) from Yaroslavl - similar in design to the diagonal, but much softer. The car confidently goes through the mud, has, in my opinion, good directional stability. For sand and loose soil, the tire is perhaps not very suitable. Since we have more mud than sand, I recommend this rubber to those who live in the village or often travel to the country.

Mud tires on UAZ Ya-358

Tire size 11.2-16; Purpose: front driving axle MTZ-82N; Load index 1050; Speed \u200b\u200bindex A6 (30); Diagonal diagonal construction; Outer diameter, mm 895; Profile width, mm 290; Weight, kg 44

Tractor rubber. They are driven by mini tractors 16-7.5 it is like 31 ″ exists and 16-9.5 ie. 35 ″, but once again - this is a terrible shortage of the most massive tractors - Chinese, their rubber g ..., solid soot, die at a time

From the stories on it, - it's just super in the mud (there is no super), but it cuts through the swamp and begins to dig in at a breakneck speed.

Manufactured by Volzhsky Shinny Zavod (VlShZ), Voltyr OJSC, Volgograd Region, Volzhsky.
Low-profile, diagonal tire F-201 (10.0 / 75-15.3) is designed for the universal small-sized machine MKSM-800, which performs lifting and transport operations in quarries and mines. The low profile and cross-country pattern of non-directional type provide high cross-country ability both when moving forward and backward in off-road conditions, on snowy roads and on deformable surfaces, high directional stability and tire grip. Maximum load on the tire (depending on the ply) from 1120 to 1695 kgf, weight - 30 kg, maximum speed - 30 km / h.

About the F-201 tire, a short history:
For a long time I rode on I-409 tires and had a clear example of the operation of I-192. Driving through the swampy areas showed that both tires were narrow and heavy. UAZ crashes. After driving along the clay and snow tracks behind the elevated Land Rovers, Land Cruisers and Jeeps, it turned out that a standard UAZ with military bridges on standard wheels rides no worse. Therefore, I decided to find tires that are wide and with a standard outer diameter.
The "goodrich" option disappears for a number of reasons:
-expensive
-relatively weak sidewalls (fairly frequent punctures)
-large diameter in relation to the width of the tire (not suitable for my driving style)

The "tractor tree" variant of the Yaroslavl or Belorussian plant is omitted for the following reasons:
-weighs a lot
-too large diameter (overloading units, poor acceleration and deceleration dynamics)

From the operation of my UAZ in difficult conditions the following requirements have been determined which the tire must meet:
-reasonable price
-have developed lugs (type I-192)
-have standard dia. with a large width (from 250mm.)
- the weight should be no more than the standard
-strong sides

Searches led to following models TVL-3, VL-30, F-201. The following dimensions: 10/75 / 15.3 and 11.5 / 80 / 15.3 Protector: "fir tree", analogue of I-192
The choice fell on the F-201, an analogue of the I-192, size. 10/75 / 15.3.
I liked the tire because it has an outer diameter. 780 mm. at a width of 10 inches (almost 250 mm.). The weight is not much more than the standard (own feelings tested during tire fitting). The middle part of the tread is similar to the I-192, and the lateral part is like a "tree".
Fears caused the landing diameter. 15.3 (UAZovsikie at 15).

The following ideas for installing such tires appeared:
-Under the cut camera like on trucks.
- when expanding the discs (according to the 2-one principle), install the hoops.
-Supply discs from the appropriate technique with re-drilling the holes for the bolts and the hub. (8-9 inch discs are needed)
- put on standard disks (for checking)

I followed the simple path "installation on uaz disks". Two people had to do the tire fitting, because of the large width of the tire with rather rigid sides and a narrow disc. During tire fitting, the impression was that our constructors were saving on matrices under 15.3, and they simply put a stamp on the sidewall. I pumped the tire up to 2 atm. Because of the narrow disc, the protector is located in an arc (when viewed from the "end"). I put all wheels on a UAZ with military bridges and wheel arches. We look. The rear wheels do not touch anywhere, the front ones too. Making labels. Go. You can drive on asphalt up to 80 km / h, but for a short time (lack of balancing and narrow discs). After running along the road 120 km long at an average speed of 60 km / h. the tire is hot enough (causes concern) The tires are quite hard and all the flaws of the asphalt road make themselves felt on the steering wheel. After intensive acceleration and deceleration, we look at the marks - everything is in place. Bleed the pressure up to 1.2 atm. The car began to go much softer. Further on country road... The vibration from the wheels has disappeared, you can go fast enough. On clay, the tire runs perfectly, does not get washed out, it became possible to quickly accelerate and brake. This allows me to move in a style close to the rally. We climb along a deep rut. The car strikes with bridges and razdatka, but drives. Trying to get out of the rut with all-wheel drive. Steering wheel to the left, iiiiii! The car rose slightly, but continued straight ahead. Now into the swing. The third time I stopped by. I'm trying to get out of the rut without front axle... The attempt was successful the first time. Further four-wheel drive and in front. We are looking for a place to get stuck. Aha !!! Done. Trying to swing. Super!!! After I-409, it feels like the car has "grown claws." The machine lends itself well to swinging, while the swinging process is clearly controlled. On the sand everything is "way". The digging process is always under control. Unfortunately, we did not manage to ride through the marshy area We look at the marks - they are again in place. The next step is reworking the disks. I suppose, thereby, to get rid of wheel beating and increase the contact patch.

Rubber I-502

I installed the Nizhnekamsk I-502. Of the FOUR wheels, TWO were balanced (imbalance of 500 kopecks). Put it on alloy wheels with the shape of a star and departure ET \u003d 0 (discs from Kamensk-Uralsky "Vicom" five-ray star). As a result, I got the following. The mass of native rubber with a disc is 33 kg, now it is 25 kg, the wheel is lighter by 8 kg. Only 8 kg x 4 \u003d 32 kg. The creaking of the front pads is a thing of the past, apparently due to the fact that the cooling has improved. Dynamics began to appear during acceleration and movement (wheels are lighter). Due to the smaller outreach, the track has increased, i.e. cornering stability (not tilting so much), as well as handling (no need to steer). You hardly get tired on long trips. There is practically no goat and it has become softer ... I advise, I like it.

They hold the road firmly, do not fall into the skid, like "relatives". In the last snow and ice on the country road they behaved normally. Dragged more than 50 km of UAZ with a jammed engine, dragged him, dear, even on a completely icy hill. On the road, it is soft and not noisy. I keep the pressure 2.5 - 3.

In my opinion - 502 is what you need. The diameter is sufficient, soft (with such a suspension it is important), the pattern is sufficient for mud, and at the same time it is good on the track.

It works fine everywhere, except for wet clay - it licks at the moment, self-cleaning of the tread - 0.

Rubber I-502, although it did not give reason to doubt the passability of the UAZ, but the directional stability on clay - well, none.

502 behaves just fine on a winter road, although it doesn't really like virgin snow. [Cuirassier]

I searched for the official needs of 2 sets, conclusions:
1. Weak sidewalls - cut to tear at a stroke.
2. It is lathered both on clay and on simply damp arable land (fertile land, but not black soil).
3. Diameter for ed. small bridges.
4. The ground clearance drops even in comparison with the standard.
5. In winter, there are no special advantages. [Elk postal]

I-502 (225-85R15) - developed by NIISHP, produced at Nizhnekamskshina - slightly wider than YaI-357, and the car runs even smoother on it. In the mud, this tire does not work well - it immediately clogs up and does not self-clean, like the YaI-357. Directional stability with it is also worse, but if you get into a skid, it pulls the car when gas is supplied much more willingly. And on a hard damp surface "502" behaves better than "357". I think that the I-502 will suit those who travel all year round, but it is probably not worth arranging a Camel Trophy on it.

I put it on 3160 almost immediately after buying it. The difference between the standard and the 520 is striking. The car practically stopped prowling, became softer, more dynamic (although the latter is most likely due to more fluent alloy wheels). The truth with balancing is a problem. The imbalance of some wheels reached 300 gr. The tires have already passed about 24 thousand km. On asphalt, incl. and on the wet, on the sand behaves with dignity. There are no cameras. He holds the pressure perfectly - for the entire time he corrected it once no more than 0.2. In short, the impressions are good. [Siberian]

520 (Pilgrim) has a size of 235-75 R15, in reality - 29 inches. The car on it goes "like clockwork", more precisely - "like on rails" - excellent handling and no yaw. And on completely regular rusty discs. The car runs very smoothly. Weights - 2-3 pcs. on the wheel. Pressure (tubeless): Hasn't dropped at all in 9 months! About off-road qualities: me and Andrey (The Beast) were in Tver on the "Off-road expedition" in the second (medium in complexity) group. But I still had to go along the most difficult route. Andrey has portal bridges, and mine - collective farm bridges and without blockages. But I only got stuck sitting on both of these collective farm bridges. So I will change this gum only for a trophy 33 inch. [Radomirich]

No action on the part of the I-520 tire itself was noticed towards self-cleaning in the mud :). But at the same time it goes! Three times in the mud, they knocked the lower part into neutral, and in the most ambush places. But he cut in - and went! - Where Vitaly went on I-192, there I went on I-520). I repeat once again - on the I-520 I got stuck only thoroughly sitting on both bridges. But never because of the slippage of tires clogged with mud. Once again, the diameter of the tire is 29 inches, the I-471 has 30.4. That is, the ground clearance will be more than one and a half centimeters. Whether it is a lot or a little is up to you to decide.
By the way, the chains on the I-520 are easier to find. On the I-471, they may have to be modified.
About city driving. No noise (they actually exist, of course, but the transmission and other hardware blocks them), no vibrations. The handling is excellent. The last 200 km from Tver to St. Petersburg were driven with Misha and Shurik at least 110 km / h. I really wanted to go home :). The tires behaved in an excellent manner.

Dry residue. After all, the I-520 is a city bus, on which one can safely get out into nature. I-471 is a universal tire (but not for raids, of course). Very normal. But I think it makes sense to put it on good 8-inch wheels with no more than zero offset. Then you will be able to feel all its charm and will not touch the suspension. [Radomirich]

Soft, quiet, very stable rubber. The diameter is actually an inch smaller than that of the 502 and standard ones. But this is such nonsense compared to the comfort and confidence on the road that these tires provide.
About off-road. Of course, she's not for him. But on a couple of rides (one of them Lesnoe-2000) the tires showed the following:

• on soft ground, where the I-192 falls through in one and a half passes, the I-520 can be driven back and forth 20 times (pulled stuck nivovods).
• compared to other road tires for UAZs of this class and size, incl. and standard 245 and 357, I-520 is the best off-road for cross-country ability.
• compared to 502 - sat down only where he sat on collective farm bridges. And THE BEAST with Andrey and Ira was on military bridges and at 502. I didn't sit on bridges too much, therefore I also didn't get too stuck.

Disks are a bit wide. For I-520, 7 ″ wheels are better. But the car, on the other hand, will be 8 ″ disc more stable on the highway and overturning. [Radomirich]

Well, yes, small diameter and weak sidewalls. He sat down with bridges in a rut, along which the UAZ had previously driven on standard tires. He broke the sidewall after hitting a tangent on the curb. On the asphalt - great, on the regular one it threw in a random direction when braking, after replacing it with a pilgrim, everything returned to normal. It goes well in the snow, in comparison with the standard one the same snowdrift pushes less. In general, I liked it in the mud, the tread is even better than the 471, it gets washed out less. True, I compared when 471 stood on the trooper, maybe it wasn't about the rubber 🙂

Tires for UAZ I-506

In the longitudinal direction, it clings super, brakes and rowes perfectly on any snow. Cleans up well - tasted in mud during thaw. The cons are:
- in the transverse direction it keeps rather weak - somehow I could not get out of the roadside. The slope was 20 degrees and there was a lot of snow;
- harsh. Not fatal;
- it is small, only about 29 inches.

By the way, I have already experienced it in the mud. Feeling very good - drawing large, with good distance between blocks. It cleans up quite well, only on dry soil small drainage grooves are clogged, but this is not scary. In the mud 30 cm deep, which the UAZs on the YaI-357 drove around, drove without any problems and still pulled a chisel behind them.
It also holds well on dry, loose soil - it is pleasant to climb ravines. There are problems on deep dry sand - it was felt that the car was slipping - apparently too narrow and toothy for sand, so for sand it is better to take I-471, probably.

I-471 (31x10.5 inches) appeared recently. This tubeless tire from Yaroslavl, perhaps, has absorbed the advantages of the two previous models (YaI-357 and I-502): the car runs very smoothly on it, the asphalt joints are simply swallowed. Directional stability is better than on other tires, and thanks to the "evil" pattern, cross-country ability will satisfy many. And what a combat look the UAZ acquires! Frankly speaking, I doubted for a long time whether to install these tires. It seems to be clear from textbooks that a wide tire should be inferior to a narrow one in cross-country ability. But, having traveled on the I-471, I can confidently say that it surpasses the two previous ones. True, it needs wheels wider than the standard ones for tubeless tires.

Frequently asked questions about I-471:
1. Whether to put on native disks? - YES!
2. Should I be put on camera? - YES!
3. Is the option possible with both? (on standard disks with a camera)
- On standard drives only with a camera. On domestic forged for UAZ it is possible without a camera. [OlegM]
4. Does the car need to be lifted? - On leaf spring suspension no need to lift
I have an unloaded car, with civilian bridges, about 3 centimeters to the wheel arches.

Impressions of Ya 471 at speed:
Yesterday, returning from the hacienda, I drove a little with a sneaker on the floor with a slipper and was pleasantly surprised by the behavior of the car. On "native" YI 357 at speeds above 110-120, the car began to "fidget". And now - that 130, that 80 - the behavior is the same - driving and driving. Moreover, since except for rubber did not change anything - this is clearly her merit. [Chief]

In the summer on the pavement, I think the 471 is ideal for a UAZ, but in the winter there is simply none.

A few nuances about the I-471:
1. Balanced with difficulty. I have forged wheels, so the weights take up about a sixth of the length of the wheel rim
2. Despite the fact that many people put on disks of the standard width, that is, 6 inches, and they seem to drive without problems, this is not correct, since the disk nirina should be 70-75 percent of the width of the rubber. That is, for I-471 AT LEAST 7 inches. I have eight inches. Departure - zero.
3. My car is almost new. At first, the rubber did not cling to the outer part of the arches, but, apparently, the springs sagged and began to touch a little. It is necessary either to bend the arches a little inward, or rather, to lift their inner flanges, or lift them a little. If there are wheel arch liners - then only. You can also just clip the wings a little, but this is not for everybody. Or a professional 🙂
4. I-471 behaves amazingly on asphalt, sand, not very washed out primer. It is difficult to dig into it. [Jedi]

Of course, it doesn’t listen to gravel, but I don’t remember much enthusiasm from the I-357 either ... Basically, on a wet clay track, I even rode it uphill (of course, with a front end) and even started uphill. Although probably in critical modes on a tractor track after an avalanche it can fail. It's just that in my practice, critical modes are more common on the track (for example, rain or bitumen) and on slopes, where an extra centimeter of track will not hurt. In short, this rubber is not for trial, but for the normal life of the layman.

I ride the Ya-471 all year round, regular wheels. It's great in the summer, I didn't look for much dirt, but in the fall I hit it once. When not very lumpy rides normally. BUT I didn't storm big mud.
Winter is bad, especially on ice. Snow is lightly packed normally. I rode a lot on the crossroads, if it is firm under the wheels, it goes great. There is an observation that you have to steer a little more intensively, this is on standard disks. Or maybe it's a glitch. In my opinion, the wheel does not need to pump more than 2 points. In principle, I'm happy with the rubber. I am thinking of remaking the standard wheels by 8 inches. [Running Turtle]

I-471 lowered to 0.5 rt in the snow as you like, and in which case it allows you to back up. It has been tested in practice many times. It rides badly with more pressure

Tires for UAZ Ya-569

ZAO TsARM (St. Petersburg) tested new Y-569 tires, which proved to be positive and have a pattern for off-road vehicles. UAZ on such tires won 1st place ("Turboded") in the rally-raid "Polygon-2000". [TsARM]

The rubber is good, the tread is evil, it cleans normally, one big minus is only about 30 inches, it is rather small. Width 235 for her, dear. On the road with it the car is better than with the standard one. So for an amateur, in general. And on the highway I-471 is definitely better, 569 is noisy and the gasoline eats well.

"Taganka"

There was such a thing. Nothing particularly good: 1. small diameter; 2. the protector is only for asphalt - it slips even on the grass; ((((In my opinion, you shouldn't mess with this - take the I-502 - this is a kind of "optimum for the people";))) Leha47rus

Enough for less than a year, everything went with a screw. Unfortunately, MShZ has not yet learned how to make reusable rubber. And so all is well. [Ivanushka]

Rubber for UAZ Ya-192

Through the mud - like a tank. On the highway - worse than a tank, in the sense that while you get to the mud, it will shake all the insides.

I tried to compare I-502 and I-192 in deep snow. It was done this way: I drive to a certain place on the I-502 and ride there until I bury myself completely. At the same time, I try not to bring all this to the state of a tank range. Then, I drive and change wheels quickly. I go there again and again try to ride along specially left strips of untouched snow, parallel to the previous ruts. Conclusion: I-192 is better, but not much.

In the snow, where I drove on a worn 357, 192 falls through, digs and sits. A meter ahead - a meter back more or less. You roll - you go. It is useless to deflate. In general, I got tired of sex and I put on chains: 0)) It’s much better, but damn it narrow rubber to disgrace. One devil fails. On the highway, a gear grinder and a hand massager despite the power steering. On the road at 90 km / h, you will love to keep the car. Throws it from side to side. I ran into a cigarette butt for 5 minutes and you catch the road: 0)) It's better not to go on the ice at all, it's useless to slow down, it's useless to steer. I almost blew a chisel: 0) In the morning it was -10 Wheels warmed up 15 km: 0) And the good thing about this rubber is just the diameter of the wheel and the ride on the snow.

Tires for UAZ Ya-409

I drive a Ya-409 year and through the swamp and in the city ... and in the snow. It's just cool in the snow, not bad on ice. I don't go slowly on the asphalt, at 140 (if you don't talk too much with the steering wheel ...) Radial tires. Only in the open-pit mine Zvenigorodskoye got stuck in a puddle of clay, but I think there was nothing to do there and on the I-192. [Kolka]

I have had I-409 for 2 years. It proved itself only as a winter one, at summer rallies and mud trophies it is not cleared at all. At the summer autocross competitions, everyone who was on the I-192 did me.

In the mud, what was offered to her was easy. Howling on the highway is not weak, but tolerable, well managed. [timosha]

On the ice, of course, g ... oh! On rolled snow, it is wonderful - normal directional stability, maneuverability as on a dry road, in deep snow (up to 40-50 cm) it confidently rushes due to its high profile, but it makes it rocking, like on a boat. Cleans well, even in wet clay. I do not regret a single drop. Although it is harsh in comparison with other tires. I keep the pressure 1.8 - 1.9.

Now I don't even want to put the 502 back, although there are 4 wheels. Supposed to put 409 only for dirt, and now I do not remove it. But it is really buried in one fell swoop, I had it both in the sand and in the gravel. You famously throttle the rear axle and sit, but as a rule, turning on the front end fixes everything. And more advice on balancing. When they balance, ask them not to rush to hang a bunch of loads at once, let the tire twist on the disk. This allowed me to halve the weight of the cargo.

Test report I-409:
Not tested only in a swamp and in deep snow.
Before that I went to 245, and then to 502.

Viscous mud after rain does not clean itself at all (although it is still necessary to figure out what is put into this concept), the rollers are obtained as in the 245 only wider, but the car goes even though it prowls to the sides, but it confidently climbs up, where there were 245 problems (there was a case to compare, we drove in two cars).
GOOD mud, after a good rain - allows you to drive on one rear-wheel drive, it was not possible to land even once. Even if you rest against bridges and roll backwards for a long time before either making your way forward or backwards on your own, it doesn’t burrow like 192. I am very pleased with the ability to get out of the rut and not fall off the edge back, it keeps side sliding well on slopes.
Clay - the protector is clogged, but the clay squeezes out perfectly. This weekend (6 people, 2 dogs, full trunk) I got up on a clay rise of 30 degrees and only then realized that I was driving on the rear axle. He turned on the front end and climbed into the tightness on the second lowered one. At 502 I wouldn't have jerked there.
Golimy rolled ice - I was driving on the rear wheel drive without showing off, the car behaves quite predictably, starts and brakes normally.
Snow porridge with loose ice - no question, goes like on asphalt.
Just asphalt (dry, wet no matter) - more hot than 502 (though I keep 3 atmospheres), a little noisier - but not so much to feel discomfort. Accelerated not before…. I don’t know how many, the speedometer was over 120 on the tachometer 4000 rpm on the gr / bridges normally, the car does not prowl.
Only two wheels were well balanced (up to 100 grams per side), and two (up to 250 grams per side). In short, I am happy, if I change when, then for some new one or for 33 ". These are my personal conclusions, as you know, which I made for myself in half a year of operation. Dashed off more than 10,000 km, noticeable wear only on the front wheels from the outside. As I understand it, this is a disease of most UAZs, plus fast cornering.

Noise level - when the vents are closed, rubber is generally inaudible, regardless of speed and coverage.
Holds the road well. Repeatedly tried to let go of the steering wheel at a speed of 80-90 km / h - the car rushes like a tank (just doesn't feel right).
Fuel consumption (I have 126 carb.)
In the summer - 12.5 liters on the highway (average speed 80 km / h), 14.5 - in the city, of course, when driving with one bridge turned on.
In winter - consumption on two bridges does not exceed 18 l / 100 km.
Passage:
Sand - very confident under any load;
Snow - rolling on a field with a depth of snow cover up to 40 cm - felt quite comfortable.
Clay (loam) - goes until you sit on the bridges, then - well ... :-).
Ice: get under way - it is better on two bridges, you can slow down - with one included.
Of the negative points - one: the problem is to get out of the rut, the side lugs are very weak.

Conclusion: for everyday use in urban conditions and not very serious off-road - I recommend paying attention to it. Well, it’s better to climb into d..mo naturally on more eminent brothers. [Mamaiashvili Sergei Valerievich]

"Cars UAZ-3151, UAZ-31512, UAZ-41514 and their modifications" (operation manual RE 05808600-060.96)

The pressure is indicated in MPa (kgf / m2). The pressure test is carried out on cold rubber.

For fans of video modifications on how to make cuts in rubber on a UAZ:

People called this Russian SUV "loaf" for its unattractive appearance. However, even with such an outdated design, the machine has a high cross-country ability. The motor works flawlessly, it breaks down very rarely. Today, as before, it is produced by the Ulyanovsk Automobile Plant.

The main customers of the Loaf are:

• Ambulance,
• Timber industry,
• Agriculture.

Certainly difficult conditions, in which the car will work, forced the manufacturers to produce models with increased characteristics. Of course, this is not required for urban conditions, but for rural areas, you simply cannot do without increased cross-country ability.

Autumn or spring will come, the roads will turn into an impassable swamp. Only a "loaf" is capable of working in such extreme conditions.

What wheels are installed on the UAZ

The vehicle is factory fitted with 225/75 R16 wheels. In previous years, the car was equipped with 235 / 74R15 wheels. The rim diameter for any type of wheel size should be within the range of 29-33 inches. If you set just such dimensions, you do not need to change the design of the car. The steel plate mount should measure 5 × 139.7.

Some owners installed R17 tires with low profile tires. Today, you can buy any car tires on the market, so this practice is no longer applied today.

When vehicle overloaded, the suspension is under maximum pressure. Sometimes even a normal tire starts to touch the wheel arch. This situation has no negative effect. The rubber remains intact.

Imported rubber

A sufficiently large number of foreign-made wheels can be installed on the UAZ. Approximately 30 types are suitable for standard installation. Their cost ranges from 5 to 13 thousand rubles.

The most suitable in terms of price and quality can be called Bridgestone 694 wheels with dimensions 235/70 R16. This tire is designed for asphalt roads and is not suitable for off-road driving. It is being sold for 7.5 thousand rubles.

For tires intended for driving on rural roads, you will have to pay 9 thousand rubles. The most suitable for this purpose is the Dunlop MT2 model, measuring 225/75 R16.

You can ride it on wet clay and complete off-road. The wheels are self-cleaning. They can also be used on asphalt roads. The only drawback is the increased noise level. You will have to pay 7.8 thousand rubles for one wheel. Are a little more expensive winter tires with the same dimensions (8-14 tons).

UAZ Patriot

The industry produces several types of rubber for this machine:

• Universal - refers to the all-season group.
• Mud - designed for driving on Russian off-road.
• Extreme - designed for driving in areas where there are no roads at all.
• Winter - for driving on bare ice and icy roads.
• Normal - factory rubber. It can be operated in urban areas.

Many owners strive to make her Patriot look more attractive. They start tuning. In such cases, you can supply wheels from other manufacturers, if their dimensions completely coincide with the factory ones:

• 245/75 R16 \u003d 30.5 × 9.5 R16;
• 265/70 R16 \u003d 30.5 × 10.5 R16.

In the case of extreme driving, the tires on the UAZ can be supplied in the following sizes:

• 320/70 R15 \u003d 33 × 12.5 R15,
• 320/80 R15 \u003d 35 × 12.5 R15.

It is very important to maintain proportionality between the arch height and the wheel size. If you install very large wheels, the car will look very unattractive. They will start to take out the wheel arch liners, constantly rub, and will put pressure on the frame. This should not be allowed.
