If you think that your tires are needed only to drive from point A to point B, then you are mistaken. Your safety and life of the car itself depends on the right selection of tires. The only problem is that even an experienced driver can not always choose the rubber correctly, because a huge number of different tires can approach one car. In this article we will analyze in detail what letters and numbers in the marking, which there are tires, how to choose them correctly and what tires are better.

Where to begin?

Look at the auto operating manual. A number of necessary parameters can be found already there, which will significantly speed up your searches. If there is no such possibility, it is worth viewing the marking of those tires that are already standing on your car.

The easiest option is to contact where you will select high-quality and suitable for your car tire. But it is better to understand everything yourself.

What are the tire parameters exist

As you already understood, with the selection of rubber, everything is not as simple as it seems. To find good tires, you need to familiarize yourself with a number of basic parameters. Among them:

• seasonality;
• type of tread;
• tire design type;
• type of design of cord;
• mounting diameter;
• tire width;
• profile height.

Do not be afraid: In practice, this list is cut to several points, and below we will analyze each of the listed parameters so that you definitely do not have any problems with the choice of rubber.

The fact that the car needs to "re-over," they know even those who have never been driving. Nevertheless, many people do not guess how much the difference between certain types of auto strokes.

So, the highway tires are ideal for summer urban roads, but they are absolutely not adapted to the ride into slush, and even more so ice. When the thermometer column falls below +7 such rubber for the car loses its properties, which seriously affects manageability. They are also not suitable for off-road - this moment will have to take into account not to get into the unpleasant situation. But in the warm season, they perfectly support adhesion with asphalt and not completely afraid of high temperatures.

For minus temperatures, winter wheels are perfect - they are softer, well ride in the snow and slide less on ice. Naturally, all year round will not use them - during operation in heat, rubber is very quickly wearing, and if the summer is very hot - it may well melt.

Now many drivers use all-season tires, but there are underwater stones here - it is not possible to use them in any region. But, if you are sure that in winter the temperature does not drop to -7, and the ice and snow you see only on TV - then why not.

Read more about each type of tires and best manufacturers - in this article.

With a tread pattern, everything is quite simple: it can be

• Symmetric;
• Asymmetric;
• Directed;
• Unirefluenced.

Most often you can meet the tires with a symmetrical non-directional pattern - they are considered universal and stand relatively inexpensively. The tires with a directional type of "treadmill" are well removed snow and water from the contact area with the surface, less "noisy", and it is possible to distinguish them in appearance: relative to the central rotation plane, the picture will be symmetrical (in one other way, one side looks like a mirror relative to second).

Now the tires with an asymmetric directional pattern are increasingly popular, because they also improve the course stability - it helps to slide the inner part of the tire on the wet surface, and the external helps on dry helps.

Type Type Type - Chamber or Cameless

Chamber tires have the designation TT, and their more perfect descendant - TL. Now almost all the autoresina is blunt-free, which is not surprising - such tires, due to a special layer, helping to maintain tightness, can, in the case of a puncture, a long time to maintain normal pressure. They are considered safer, less heat and serve longer.

Nevertheless, plus a chamber tire is that it can be replaced or repaired independently, while it is becoming more and more complicated for Bescamer - it will have to be resorted to the notched help of professionals. Nevertheless, we advise not to hope for possible savings - any puncture of the chamber tire can lead to an accident, since the air leaves it very quickly.

Cord Design Type

Tires are diagonal and radial. Now the diagonal tires are used only in commercial machinery. Radial - more modern, capable of withstanding heavy loads and possess the best heat removal. So it's simple with this item: only radial tires. They are noted in the labeling of the letter R (yes, this letter means not the radius).

Mounting (or landing) diameter

Here you do not need to be inventing the bike: you have enough to see the diameter of the disk - it must match the mounting tire diameter. The figure is indicated on labeling in inches. In the operating manual, it is indicated how the diameter needs disks to your car - it means that the tires need to be selected with the corresponding planting diameter. That is, R14 is a radial tire with an internal diameter of 14 inches.

Bus width

When you look at the marking, the first digit you see is the width of the tire in millimeters. It can be different - it depends on the width of the disk. Even if the diameter is one, the width can be different, and the wrong choice can affect the characteristics of the car. Some, however, as one of the elements of tuning, use rubber not in size, but it is already a threat to driving when driving.

For each machine model, several variants of the width of the disk and the size of the bus are available - all this is written in the instruction manual.

Height profile

The second digit in marking is just the height of the profile as a percentage. If you are interested in the figure in millimeters, then it is very easy to find out: the specified width (first digit in the index) is multiplied by height (second digit) and divide by 100.

This parameter is seriously affected by the ride quality:

• if the car has too hard suspension, then it is better to choose a tire with a high profile, because so you get a more comfortable ride and, as a big plus, breakdown resistance;
• if you need perfect handling - pay attention to the bus with a low profile, even though they are more prone to damage.

You should also not forget that the wider disk, the lower the profile.

We select tires on the car

So we came to the practical part: the selection of tires is for your car, taking into account the desired characteristics. Let's consider every possible option, and there are only five of them.

• Highway is the same high-speed tires that can not be used when driving on ice and snow, but for dry or wet asphalt, they fit perfectly.
• Snow or MUD + SNOW - M + S - it means winter tires. Thanks to a special pattern of tread, the snow is output from the wheel, which provides good adhesion with the road. These tires are softer, they are only suitable for low temperatures and lose their properties in heat.
• All Season or All Weather are all-season tires that retain manageability on a wet and snow-covered road, and can be used in the warm season. True, with a strong heat or, on the contrary, very low temperatures and a bad road, they lose their qualities.
• Performance - high-speed tires, they possess ideal handling and are not afraid of high temperatures, but are useless on ice and snow, and also beaten quickly.
• All Season Performance - All-season high-speed tires that possess the same properties as high-speed, but can be used all year round.

We have already partially touched the topic of marking, now we will stay in this question in more detail. On each bus you will see an alphanumeric designation that will look like in the picture below.

Decoding load indices

To find out what maximum load is permissible for each bus, you need to see the index. It is indicated immediately after the mounting diameter. That is, in the marking of 185/70 R14 88H, the load index will be 88. You can view the decryption of load indices in the manufacturer's table on the official website. For example, the same 88 will mean that the maximum load on each tire is 560 kg. We multiply this number to 4 and get a total maximum load that should be no less than the maximum mass of the car.

These parameters are very important to consider, otherwise your tires will last long. The easiest way to determine them on the table:

Please note that some manufacturers may change, so do not forget to clarify all the details when buying, as well as learn information on the manufacturer's bus site. This is especially important if you buy b / y tires - here the whole responsibility for the right choice falls on your shoulders.

Consumer indexes

Not at each tire speed will maintain their performance characteristics - there is the maximum allowable. It is also indicated in marking. It is indicated by Latin letters and also specified in the table represented by the manufacturer.

On the tire you can find the necessary tire designation immediately after the load index. That is, in the same marking of 185/70 R14 88H, the maximum speed index is H, which means that you should not accelerate up to 210 km / h (although it is better not to accelerate, regardless of tires).

In addition to the above classifications, there are still conventional quality indicators that are also denoted on the sidewall bus. They include:

• wear indicator;
• clutch indicator;
• temperature characteristics;
• maximum load and pressure;
• marking DOT;
• pressure index.

These indicators are needed not so much when choosing how much during operation. Below is the location scheme of each of the designations.

Exchange of wear

Each tire has a working resource, so it is important to know how much time you can ride, without fear of serious tread wear. Remember that the use of tires with "expired" is unsafe!

These indicators are not taken from the ceiling - each manufacturer is obliged to conduct testing on established standards. Typically, tire manufacturers indicate how long the tires can stop, but it is not unquestionless to believe, because the speed and severity of wear directly depends on the quality of road surface and driving style.

Clutch Indicator

Denoted by letters A, B or C. Best - A, choose the tires precisely with such an indicator. Testing is tested in this way: the car accelerates on a straight wet road, and then slows down. The results are analyzed, then the verdict is submitted according to world standards. Be sure to pay attention to the clutch indicator - being on the track during the shower you will not regret that they spent some time to study these qualities.

Temperature characteristic

Here it is also the designation of Latin letters A, B and C. This is important in order to find out whether the tires can resist heating. That is why rubber and divide on summer and winter. See the tire with an indicator A - in front of you summer tires, retaining its properties on a hot asphalt, but "dubing" at low temperatures.

This is the maximum weight of the car at maximum tire pressure. In ordinary passenger cars, these values \u200b\u200bare directly proportional.

Dot Marking

If it is present, it means that there are auto strokes comply with the Security Standards Department OF Transportation - the US Transport Department. Tires intended for Russia and Ukraine have a "E" label, that is, these tires have been checking and comply with European standards. It is curious that some manufacturers place this mark at once in several sections of the tire. Apparently, that you certainly have no doubt about the safety of such rubber.

As for the labeling DOT itself, it looks like this: dot m5h3 459x 064. What can I understand from this labeling? M5N3 - manufacturer and enterprise code, 459x - size code, 064 - week and year of manufacture. In fact, this information is not as important to you as the fact that the tires correspond to this standard.

How much tires will correspond to their characteristics, directly depends on the internal pressure. For each car optimal is a certain tire pressure. The information you need is specified in the sticker on the end of the door or the cabin rack.

The tire consists of several elements:

• cord - located at a minimum distance from each other, covered with a layer of rubber;
• the frame is a combination of cords of one row, they can be located next to each other or on top of each other;
• breker - a special belt under the tread, it is he softens blows on a bad road;
• the protector - it is in contact with the road and has a certain drawing, on which it depends, as the machine will behave in certain weather conditions;
• side and side - on them there is a major load from the weight of the car.

If you are interested in a more detailed description of the tire design, then the corresponding scheme is presented below.

As we have already mentioned, the tire may have a diagonal or radial design. In the diagonal filament of Cord, cross will come crosswise, and throughout the circumference of the tire. The radial has a somewhat different design of the frame - here the threads are parallel to each other. In the radial bus, the frame protects the breaker layers.

What is the difference? Located diagonally, the threads are drunk on each other, the tire heats up and faster "wear out." Also, such tires the frame is tougher, which negatively affects the car handling, and the depreciation is not impressive - the driver and passengers will feel all the "charms" of broken roads.

Another thing is the design of radial tires. They are more elastic, absorb all the irregularities of the road and contribute to better manageability. Lost such rubber is much longer.

How to choose winter tires for a car

If you live in a region where frosts are frost in winter, then the car must be reversible. And it is not enough to just come to the store and ask for winter tires for a specific car model - you need to take into account some nuances. Let's analyze each of them in detail.

Varieties of winter rubber

• european rubber;
• scandinavian rubber;
• studded tires.

Your choice should depend on what conditions you operate the car. If the communal services in your city safely forget about the cleaning of snow, and the ice is a familiar phenomenon, the European tires will not suit you. Scandinavian tires differ from a European more pronounced pattern of a tread consisting of rhombuses and triangles. Such tires perfectly behave on ice, providing maximum grip with an expensive. Minus - on a clean and dry road, and also in the rain they are less effective, and for high speeds are not fit perfectly.

The European type, as already clear from the name, is not intended for snowfall and roads resembling skating rink. They are good for a big city, where snow is regularly removed. Such tires are distinguished by the fact that they have special channels for draining water, so during the rain or when porridge is formed on the roads from the monstering snow they will be perfect. With such tires you can develop a good speed.

There is a separate type of rubber - with spikes, but it is worth talking about it separately.

Operating conditions

Many people think that it is necessary to retrain in ice. It is incorrect - winter tires are needed not only in order not to slide in the snow. If the thermometer column fell below +7 (we are talking about the average daily temperature), then the summer tires begin to "dub", which affects manageability. Yes, and the service life of summer rubber is thus significantly reduced.

Choosing the tire manufacturer, it is worth paying attention to the company, in motorists around the world. The first firm that began to produce winter tires - Nokian. Until now, these tires are considered one of the best, especially experts and motorists studded tires Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8. Ideally break the ice and compacted snow, but in urban conditions show yourself a little worse.

Another bright representative of the production tire is Bridgestone. Pay attention to the Bridgestone Ice Cruiser 7000. Different with a good retention on ice, and also wears slower competitors. Another plus - the spikes hold very hard (who traveled on studded rubber knows how the spikes can fall off).

For SUVs, Goodyear's tires can be advised, especially Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice Arctic - they showed the best results during tests with sharp braking on ice. More these tires are leaders in the number of positive feedback.

As for the untapped winter rubber, it is worth paying attention to Dunlop. DUNLOP WINTER SPORT 5 - Winter in the city deserve attention to the city, regardless of the weather, these tires show themselves from the best side.

Good and French firm Michelin. Soft rubber Michelin Agilis Alpin helps you save control over a car during emergency braking.

Important moment: Most world manufacturers have their own designations of some nuances in characteristics, so if you see unfamiliar symbols on labeling - go to the official website of the company and read the information.

With spikes or without

Winter tires can be studded or friction (it is also called "velcro"). Many drivers believe that the best winter tires should only be with spikes, but it is not. If you do not go beyond the city and do not need to overcome snow obstacles - they just do not need them. Moreover, on a dry or wet asphalt, spikes can play a screw joke - the braking path increases, and the handling becomes worse.

"Velcro" is ideal for the city, but in the winter journey on such tires it is better not to go. Yes, and you should not go to the cottage.

Figure tread

We have already said that the drawing can be symmetrical and asymmetric, as well as directed and non-directional. According to numerous tests and reviews of drivers, for the winter road it is better to choose asymmetric directed tires - they well show themselves both in the snow and ice, and on a wet road. Of course, for quality will have to pay extra.

The shelf life of winter rubber

The Winter Tires store should be stored for no more than two years, the service life of standards is usually limited to five years, but with competent storage, this indicator can be significantly increased.

Choosing winter tires, pay attention to the date of release - they should be no older than three to four years. All that older is not just outdated, but also lost some of the properties.

You are also entitled to require the seller a certificate of compliance with European standards - unfortunately, in stores are often trying to sell low-quality rubber people.

You can hold your own mini-expertise - put on the textile glove and spend on the surface of the tread hand in the picture direction. No extra protrusions were noticed - the tires are good. Naturally, this method of verification is not suitable for studded options.

Top 10 best winter tires 2019-2020

It will be time to "pereobed", so it is especially for you, we have prepared a rating of the best winter rubber. It entered both the tires of the premium segment and more budget models.

There is a reinforced sidewall

Excellent untapped tires that are suitable for a large number of car models. During the production of these tires, the special composition of the Multi-Cell Compound is used, which makes riding on winter roads more secure - excellent handling in the city, off-road and even on iced roads. Tires are not afraid of temperature differences, while winter tires retains its properties much longer than most competitors and has a very long service life.

Tread pattern: asymmetrical

Already long have won their place under the sun among world brands. So, the company ranks first in Europe and the fourth in the world for the production of rubber. For this model, tires are characterized by high rates of passability, reliable clutch, both in the city and beyond, excellent braking with all weather conditions characteristic of winter period.

Tires provide excellent braking and handling on wet and dry asphalt, ice and snow-covered road. Numerous tests have shown that these are the best tires for the winter for those who are ready for any weather conditions - by the parameters of speed, braking and manageability, they showed excellent results. It is assumed for passenger cars, but there are versions for crossovers and SUVs.

The size range is very wide - 29 sizes, such tires can be chosen for many passenger cars. The main advantage of this winter rubber is a special pattern of a tread, providing excellent grip with an expensive even in very harsh conditions. By the way, the tires can be used in the regions with very harsh winters - the cryo adaptive rubber mixture retains the elasticity of the tires at temperatures below -25.

Tread pattern: directional

These tires on the ice are quite capable of competing a studded rubber - numerous tests have shown that a short braking path, comfort and excellent balancing justify the high cost of such rubber. At the same time, the results of tests on the snow, dry and wet asphalt also remained at the height. An excellent option for those who are primarily about security.

Tread pattern: directional

The best tire results were shown on the snow and ice, the situation is slightly worse on the asphalt - a rather long braking path on dry, but good indicators on the wet. The best tires for experienced drivers, because sometimes (for example, during rebuilding in another strip), small drifts may be observed.

The main advantage - as the tire wear does not lose their characteristics. At the same time, they serve quite a long time and more than justify the checked cost. Do not forget that you have the opportunity to save a little by buying "shoes" for your car.

Tread pattern: directional

The manufacturer was able to achieve harmony: on ice and snow tires behave like Scandinavian, and on asphalt - as typical European. This allows you to count on excellent handling, fast braking and good clutch with expensive. Tires show themselves in all weather conditions - due to the large content of silica, operation is possible at temperatures from -50 ° C to +7 ° C.

Tread pattern: directional

The best tires for crossover and passenger cars for those who want to get high quality, not overpaying. The best results of controlling the tires are shown in the snow and dry asphalt. On ice and wet road, such rubber lags a little behind the "premium".

Unlike older company models, this rubber has a silicon, providing a better grip with snow and ice. However, the main advantage is still the ratio of price and quality.

Tread pattern: directional

The best tires for the winter for a relatively small price - this tires in all tests confidently keeps average positions. Tires behave well in the snow, not bad on ice and dry surface and slightly worse on the wet asphalt (long braking path). Compared to competitors in the same price category, Kumho I Zen KW31 tires showed excellent results in emergency braking, turns and aquaplaning. The pros also worth adding enough longer life.

Tread pattern: directional

The main advantage of these tires in the cost, with good characteristics (they may well compete with many models of the premium segment). Best of all, they behave on ice and dry asphalt. Model Nokian Nordman RS2 SUV can be called the best tires for SUVs at reasonable value.

Minus - tires are quite noisy for "lipuchk".

Tread pattern: asymmetrical

This rubber entered our top tires due to a very short brake path on ice and dry asphalt. Worse - on the wet surface and snow (the worst result was in checking slashplanting resistance). However, for its value, these are very high-quality tires that will definitely save their properties for sure.

Get ready for winter now and do not forget that we have a huge number of shops on our site, where you have the opportunity to purchase tires for cars with Cashbank.

How to choose summer tires for car

Summer tires are tougher winter, they do not melt on hot asphalt. Summer rubber manufacturers are a lot, as well as her species, but to figure out, in fact, it is not so difficult, as it seems at first glance.

Summary of summer rubber

Summer tires differ in the drawing of the tread, in any store you will be offered three types:

• classic;
• with directional pattern of tread;
• with asymmetric pattern.

The most popular and budget is classic, they are usually put at the factory. The tread pattern is symmetrical here, it is well suited for trips around the city, and before work and back - it is not necessary to drive daily on the streets on the streets on relatively long distances, since such tires are very quickly wearing. They also do not behave very well in rainy weather.

Directional drawing is much better, it is these tires that experts advise. But they are better not to put them on cars without anti-locking system - the braking path increases. But it is for the better affect the controllability of the car. In addition, such tires are well adapted to move in a wet road surface (good drainage). They are also more durable and allow less fuel to spend less.

Of the minuses, you can call a higher price and the inability to change the tires with places without turning the wheels. With a fear, too, problems - it is impossible to predict what kind of wheel will be damaged.

Asymmetric tires, too, you can simply change this way - here we will have to take into account not only the direction of the wheels, but also the location of the inner and outdoor side (as you remember, there is a different drawing). Plus, the risk of aquaplaning is reduced and the grip of the wheels is improved.

Operating conditions

The main indicator is the temperature. Yes, summer tires are well adapted to hot asphalt, but it is worth remembering that at very high temperatures, standard summer tires are less reliable - the braking path increases. There is a special sports tires, which, when heated only improves the indicators.

Naturally, you should not wait for the winter to change the tires. "Publishing" needed when the thermometer column is lowered to +7, even if the weather is dry and nothing foreshadows frost.

As in the case of winter tires, we advise you to pay attention to the largest manufacturers. A good and pretty popular option - Nokian Hakka Green. These tires are sufficient wear-resistant and showed good results during tests. Suitable for economical motorists, because they are relatively inexpensive and help to save fuel.

BFGoodrich Grip is characterized by good maneuverability and coursework stability. True, they are not very good when driving around wet road.

The manufacturer, about whom we have not yet spoke - Yokohama. If you are not going to regularly engage in extreme driving, then pay attention to the Yokohama BlueArth tires - they allow you to save up to 10% of fuel! These tires have a low noise level.

One of the popular brands, Continental, manufactures the ContiPremiUmContact 5 tires - they are distinguished by excellent balancing and elasticity. During tests, they also showed excellent results in emergency braking.

In addition to the above, tires such brands like RIRELLI, NEXEN, NITTO and SAVA are popular.

By the way, it is much cheaper to order the desired tires with delivery from the manufacturer - the prices are lower than in specialized stores, and you can use the cachekkom. Also on the sites of manufacturers and shops, as a rule, there is a tire calculator that allows you to quickly select the desired rubber.

Size

The easiest option is to appeal to the technical documentation again, where the required tire size is indicated. Pay attention to the height of the profile indicated in the marking. There are:

• low profile (up to 55%);
• high-profile (60-75%);
• full-faceted (more than 80%).

Low profile tires suitable for high-quality urban roads, high-profile - if you often have to deal with not the highest quality coating, and full-belly put on SUVs.

Speed \u200b\u200band load indices

You know the weight of the car and the maximum speed you develop on the road. You should not take the tires "backdrop" so that then not to face the unpleasant situation. But also overpay for the same tire speed index y (300 km / h) to the one who is rare and up to 120 accelerates, no sense.

How to select the tire load index? Again, for each car there are its recommended parameters, so focus on the manufacturer's recommendations.

Summer shelf life

Summer tires can be used for 5-6 years, and under the condition of proper operation. Yes, the Internet often writes that the Americans change rubber once every 10 years. The figure is already dubious, the arms of the difference as the road ... Do the output yourself.

Make sure that the tread depth was at least four millimeters - "bald" tires can stand in an emergency.

The first thing is to fear - non-compliance with the recommendations of the manufacturer of the car. In the instruction manual is written, tires with what characteristics are best suitable for this model. Experiments can lead to increased fuel consumption and worsening manageability.

Do not choose narrow tires for summer - widely will provide a good clutch with the road. It is also worth being careful with low-profile rubber, since any pothole on the road can damage the disk. Repair, naturally, will require additional spending.

Operation of tires

How long the rubber saves its qualities, directly depends on the operating conditions. At this point, we collected the main advice that will help you save the tires in the proper state and do not miss the moment when it is worth buying new ones.

Weather factors

Perhaps it is to climate that it is necessary to navigate when choosing and operating tires. The main rule - the tires must be for the season. What makes rubber for winter tires make? Silicon and polymer components add to it, so it becomes softer. Winter tires under the scorching sun - sad sight.

If it is often rained in your region, then you should pay attention to the Aqua labeling (water), or Rain (rain). Otherwise, you risk losing controllability on a wet road. In winter, danger is snow and ice.

In warm tire conditions, it is worthwhile to check for tire pressure more often - no less than once a month.

Maximum load

This figure is not indicated in the marking - the load should not be higher than the maximum permissible, otherwise the Cordnies will be collected. Tires are better to choose with a maximum load margin about 30%.

What if the mass of the car has reached the maximum mark? Of course, the right advice is to get rid of excess cargo or carry it. If the trips can not be avoided, then be prepared for the fact that the tire can collapse on the way. Therefore, you need to go to the minimum speed so that you can keep the car in case of loss of controllability.

Wear tire

Remember the important rule: it is impossible to change only two tires, that is, put new ahead, and back to leave a naked rubber (as the opposite). Saving-savings, and about their own security needs to be remembered.

Do not forget to get acquainted with the reviews about specific tires, after all, whatever the manufacturer promising, it is better to know the opinion of those who have already acquired such tires and, which is important, used them on ours, far from perfect roads.

Tip: Watch that the tires installed are not only one size and design, but also treated one model of one manufacturer. Even if it seems to you that the tires are the same - it is not. A minor difference can play a cruel joke in extreme conditions.

Tires used in use

Of course, such tires will cost much cheaper, but you are very risking. Even if the rubber looks good, and the service life is small - the tires can have internal defects. Even a professional "on the eye" will not always be able to find a marriage that can lead to the most terrible consequences on the road.

If the car fell into a snow captivity, it is not the best idea. First, you risks even more to "bury" the wheels in the snow, and secondly, it is extremely poorly reflected in the rubber. The tire may even explode!

Tire balancing

That's what exactly should not be done, so it is to neglect balancing. If it is done wrong, the wheel starts to beat, which leads to the vertical rolling of the car and the star horizontally. So it is worth the rule - each installation should end with the wheel balancing.

Wheel collapse

In each car, the wheels have their own orientation both in relation to each other and the road. If the diagram of the score-collapse is incorrect, then the car reacts worse to the driver's actions, and the tires wear off unevenly. It also affects the velocity of tire wear.

You can check the scheme of the score-collapse only with special equipment, so do not be lazy sometimes traveling to the service stations.

It is very important that all four tires wear uniformly. For this wheel, sometimes you need to change places. Usually in the instruction manual, the manufacturer indicates how often it is necessary to make rotation. If you did not find the necessary information in the documents, then simply spend this procedure every 10-15 thousand kilometers.

Just do not forget to take into account the features of the tread pattern!

Tire care and storage

How to store tires? So that the tires served as long as possible, it is necessary to store them only in a vertical position, as they stand on the wheel. Yes, it is more convenient to simply fold them on each other in the corner of the garage, but this approach is correct to be called difficult (only if you do not keep them with the disks - in the collected form they are even better to store them, reaching a "stack").

Before removing them until the next season, the tires need to be cleaned from dirt, and also check if something in the deepening treads is stuck. Do not forget to sign, what a tire at what place was and with the next "pereobuvania" to change the front and rear tires in places so that they are equally wearing.

From high humidity of Cord's threads can start grew, consider this by choosing a place to store tires. The place should also be dark and cool.

Many prefer to keep tires on rims in the pumped form. In this case, it should be borne in mind that excess moisture is an excellent environment for the formation of corrosion between the disk and the tire.

As for constant care, it does not need any supernatural. Check the tire pressure once a month and if you notice that one of the tires has become stronger to lower the air, then you should contact a specialist.

Also check that the bosses are not stuck in the tires that can enter the tread pattern during the ride. Pay attention to the degree of wear of each tire - it is better to change the rubber before the deadline than to wait for the possible consequences.

As you can see, there is nothing complicated in the peculiarities of the selection and operation of tires. We hope our tips will be useful for you.

A huge number of brands fill today's tire market, which causes some difficulty when choosing. A wide range, different characteristics, cost - which of the proposed tires is the best? At the same time, popular brands do not always offer products even optimal quality. There are examples on the market when the unfamiliar company produces rubber, superior in its parameters of famous manufacturers.

Our small review can help in this confusion. For the convenience of the reader, the rating was broken into three price categories, each of which presents the best tire brands of modernity. The selection was carried out on the basis of product characteristics, the opinions of specialists of service centers, as well as recommendations and reviews of the owners of this rubber.

Best budget tire firms

For many domestic cars and used cars, there will be a good option to buy inexpensive tires. They will be faithful to serve for many years, and when you fail, it will not be sorry for them to replace them.

5 Kumho.

The most reliable protection against fakes
Country: South Korea
Rating (2019): 4.5

A beautiful lake is so translated into the Russian name of the South Korean tire firm. More than 10 years ago, the cost of the gross product produced exceeded a billion dollars and continues to grow. Aggressively conquering the world market, Kumho supplies rubber for primary configuration to plants of manufacturers such as Mercedes Benz, Ford and other brands.

2 nokian

Excellent clutch on the winter road

Car owners are satisfied with silent ride, good permeability, resistant to icing roads. Special glory has gained the Hakkapeliitta model from domestic motorists. The spikes hold very reliably, after 5-6 years of operation, more than 80% of metallic elements are preserved. The main disadvantage of domestic motorists consider a high price.

1 Goodyear.

Best passenger tires for summer
Country: USA
Rating (2019): 5.0

The US company Goodyear is one of the leading players in the production of rubber products. It was on the wheels of this company, the first serial Ford was driving outside the plant. The company's history has been more than 100 years. The basis of the work has always been the search for innovation and the introduction of advanced technologies. The main office is from 1898 g. Acron (Ohio). The line has tires for cars and trucks, for motorcycles and aircraft, agricultural machinery and special transport.

Forest feedback from Russian motorists are mainly connected with summer tires. She perfectly holds the car on a slippery road when turning turns. When driving, no noise is heard, balancing takes place on "excellent", perfectly copes with soil coatings. Fast ride on pyles and uhabam can lead to the appearance of "hernia". Identical characteristics can be found at the most popular tire of this brand - Wrangler Duratrac. The only thing to get on such a rubber "Hernia" should be treated. Despite the brutal deep protector, the tire is rather quiet in operation, and at the same time it is characterized by high wear resistance.

Although this year most of the companies from the first 20-ki retain their position, this does not mean that there is nothing in the global tire industry. Pirelli, for example, everything also takes the fifth place (based on the results of 2016), but it should be borne in mind that the selection of Pirelli Industrial in the separate structure is not taken into account (releases tires for trucks and special equipment). In addition, the assets of Chemchina and Pirelli in the new Prometeon structure will have its influence. This year, Sumitomo also overtook Hankook and took the sixth place, and this means that since Pirelli is now engaged only by passenger and motoes, next year the Italians will be difficult to keep the fifth place (as expected, turnover will decrease by about 1 billion euros).

One of the significant changes was the fact that Cooper overtook Giti and took 10th place. Now these companies are already separating about 200 million euros, so Giti will not be easy to return to the top 10 next year.

Two Indian companies are rapidly developing - MRF and Apollo. The first was able to rise from 16 to 15 lines, while the second it turned out to rise from 18 to the 16th place. Since now there are less than 90 million euros, and Apollo increases sales by a faster pace, next year, it will most likely get to overtake the MRF and become the largest Indian tire manufacturer.

The rating shows that the tire world will have to get used to the fact that Chinese manufacturers are increasingly conquering an international market. While the largest tire manufacturer of China - ZC Rubber - has long and firmly strengthened its status of one of the leaders of the global market, its positions are consistently improving Huayi (former Double Coin) and Linglong. This trend is maintained, and this year Sailun also entered the first twenty.

Nexen became another newcomer rating, so now it includes all three leading tire companies from South Korea - Hankook, Kumho and Nexen. The situation around Kumho is of particular interest. This year it ranks 14, but if DoubleStar still close a deal to buy a Korean manufacturer, a new combined company will be able to rise to the 13th line in the future.

In general, over the past ten years, all leading tire manufacturers have significantly increased their sales volumes. For example, Continental, Sumitomo and Hankook increased turnover by 62, 72 and 95%, respectively, and even two industry leaders - Bridgestone and Michelin - which may seem to be harder to discover new markets - were able to increase sales by 28 and 40% respectively. At the same time, Goodyear for 10 years, even a bit, but reduced the turnover - by 3.7%.

It remains to add that this time already 24 bus companies were able to undergo a mark of 1 billion euros, while ten years ago there were twice as much.

When high-quality tires are installed on the car, the driver does not worry about his safety. Excellent clutch with a road blade makes it easy to control the vehicle. Today there are a large number of different tires on the market. However, only some of them are very popular.

Therefore, the company is considered one of the most prestigious. Most popular uses inexpensive C.Drive 2 AC02 tire. It is highly resistant when maneuvering at high speed.

Tire manufacturers are so diverse that sometimes the choice of one set of tires makes you think for a few weeks. Car rubber of each manufacturer has its own characteristics. As a rule, manufacturers of tires focus on a specific list of characteristics. Countries tire manufacturers are also different as firms indicated on the sidewalls of the wheels. The world's best tire manufacturers take the ten first positions in the market.

Tire manufacturers rating

Rubber manufacturers for cars are large corporations with their own research centers, thousands of jobs and a constantly updated assortment of high-tech products. The rating of the car manufacturers of the world is based on each of them the share of the market and on the sympathies of car owners.

The Japanese brand Bridgestone retains the position of the leader since 2007. The manufacturer produces tires for passenger transport, high-pass vehicles, light trucks and cargo equipment.

In the production of rubber, experience in supplying Formula-1 racing chambers is applied. Distinctive brand features are high quality, handling and stability of damage. Rubber is performed in strong frameworks, which are especially valued in Russian conditions. For wear-resistant, the tires are kept at the average level.

The Michelin group is the second largest tire concern in the world. This is a transnational corporation that captured many European brands. The company's acquisition list includes even the American concern BF Goodrich.

Michelin tires have earned their high position of the high level of driving comfort, which they offer users of any level. Without lagging behind his eternal rival, the Japanese brand Bridgestone, the French group of companies uses its tires in the racing "24 Hours Le Mans", which are held annually in France. Despite the experience of using tires in endurance racing competitions, Michelin cannot boast of wear resistance or strong framework. The main problem of this rubber is a tendency to appear hernia.

A few years ago, the Michelin group opened the plant in Russia. Today, users note a noticeable drop in the quality of the tires. This applies equally to the noise level and the traction and coupling properties of rubber.

Gudier tires are unique. Only this European manufacturer offers tire car owners for all seasons. Goodyear is also a multinational holding. It includes several European brands producing passenger tires and cargo rubber.

Goodyear tires are distinguished by endurance and excellent traction coupling properties. Like all German, rubber is characterized by the quality of manufacture and strong sides. The shortcomings of the tires of this brand include the comfort of operation. According to the majority of Russian users, the All-season models Goodyear Vector is the best solution for domestic roads.

The quality of goudrier rubber depends largely on the country of production. The brand owns plants in the Baltic States and Central Europe. European tires are a model of this quality Goodyear, which cannot be said about the Baltic Tires.

Continental - Premium Rubber. Not every car owner can afford a set of tires of this brand. But users who knew the coupling properties of rubber will continue to compare all other brands with Continental.

The company's pricing policy remains unchanged over the years. Rubber does not fall in price, but against the background of widespread prices, it seems not so much drawback. In the list of advantages of tires - impeccable quality, impressive traction-coupling properties and a worthy level of comfort. Continental does not recognize compromises. Here you create rubber that meets all the requirements of the driver.

Pirelli - Italian tire corporation. The main activity of the company is the production of tires for racing tracks and for general roads. Applying your experience "Rider", the manufacturer produces rubber with impressive indicators of controllability and sustainability at high speed.

Unfortunately, the tire is noticeably inferior to market leaders. Pirelli is often subject to the formation of hernia due to shocks. The most popular on the Russian market are tires with Run Flat technology.

Concern Sumito produces the tires of the same name and owns the Dunlop brand. Country of rubber production - Japan. The company offers its tires as an alternative to more expensive market leaders. Rubber is distinguished by acceptable price and decent coupling properties.

Korean Hancuck manufacturer is known to each second Russian car owner. In the production of rubber, the main emphasis is delivered on comfort and speed resistance. The company's pricing policy allowed the tires to occupy the average price segment, which significantly affected the competitiveness of the brand.

Japanese brand Yokohama is one of the oldest in the global tire industry and in the Russian market. Today, the brand produces rubber for sports cars, racing chambers, city passenger cars, SUVs, light trucks and cargo equipment. The benefits of the brand include a good quality and a wide range.

Cheng Shin Tire is a Taiwanese corporation, known by Maxxis brand. This brand came to the Russian market not so long ago and began to actively conquer positions. Today it is common and car owner brand, which offers a large range and decent quality. The pricing policy of the company changes in proportion to the increase in demand. It causes dissatisfaction of car owners.

Cooper is perhaps the only American brand that has received such widespread. In Russia, the brand is valued for endurance, permeability and softness, characteristic of off-road rubber. The concern produces tires for passenger transport and high-pass vehicles. Cooper is considered a quality sample. The flaws of the brand include a small representation in domestic stores.

Tire manufacturers are diverse, but they all strive for one goal - to obtain a greater market share. For car owners, this means that the traction and coupling properties and comfort of using tires will increase from the season for the season. Which of the producer presented in the ranking is preferred - a personal choice question.
