Winter is coming very soon, which means the time has come to start preparing your car for it.


The most important preparation on the minds of most motorists is the choice of winter gum. What kind of vibrati? The rubber with spikes does not show at all on perfectly clean and dry asphalt, but it wears out more quickly on such surfaces.

It is wonderfully suitable for roads covered with ice and snow.


What are Velcro?

The remaining few rocks have been heard, and a new concept has appeared - Velcro tires.

Although the stench is not as popular as studded gum, sales of friction gum are growing due to skin problems. They confirm that it is wonderfully suitable for resurfacing, as long as the asphalt is practically dry and clean. In general, non-studded rubber, Velcro has a special structure, so that the tires are richer and more adaptable to different weather conditions.

dear minds

The assortment in tire stores is very wide, and you can buy them both on the market, in stores, and via the Internet.

With such income, it is very difficult for early-stage motorists to make a choice, which sometimes turns out to be not an easy choice for drivers with great experience.

So, why do you need to develop your respect in order to make the right choice?

We must first show respect to the gumi warehouse, the Scandinavian will be smaller than the European one.


This type of tire is more resistant to scratching, since European models are more round and hard. On the asphalt For Russian winters, the most relevant are Scandinavian tires.

If you change the behavior of tires with studs and Velcro on the asphalt, then most often the studded bits will burn out.

However, according to experts from snowy and cold Finland, you can confidently trust the thorns, no matter how wet it is (we think that at a speed of up to 80 km/year the stink is disgusting).

When testing tires various virobniks with spikes and Velcro, it was installed so that the galvanized way of spikes becomes 35-38 meters, the same as with Velcro - 33-41 meters.

Moreover, studded tires from Bridgestone have shown themselves to be much cheaper than their cheaper counterparts from Kama.

The pouch was tested on asphalt: there were no absolute successes, so it didn’t work out to make clear-cut results, like gum is better.


Snow and ice

In fact, it should be noted that in severe frost the gum melts and the road surface freezes even more.

As a result, the spikes are simply pressed into the tread, and after every hour the tires look like nothing.

At a temperature of around -40 degrees, the spikes simply cannot penetrate the Krizhan coating.

  • This doesn’t happen with Velcro; there’s no need to punch through anything, just let it stick to the coating.
  • If the air temperature is below -15 degrees, then the spikes are more likely to appear.
  • The best Velcro tires:
  • Michelin, X-Ice
  • Nokian Hakkapelita R2

Continental ContiViking Contact At the end To be sure, even though there is a huge amount of literature and thoughts on the choice of winter gum, they still cannot make a residual choice on the measles of another species. To put it briefly, it is imperative that before making the remaining choice, you should take into account your region of residence, climate, as well as the road you need to travel on a daily basis. If your favorite way is not a booth-robot-booth, and you only travel locally, then feel free to pick up friction tires.

If you often have to wait for a place, so that you not only cross the road, but also cross the place, you may notice that the shortest option become spiky.

Also, when looking for a place in the winter snowy days, do not forget to take with you a shovel, a rope,

charger

In recent winters, residents of northern regions have to choose between Velcro and studded gum.

And it’s difficult to say unequivocally which of them is more beautiful, because the skin from the tires has its own weak and strong sides. Let's try to get in touch with someone in a practical way. For whom we analyzed the results of a number of

winter tests

See European and domestic magazines to understand which tire options are shortest.

Noise and comfort

In all tests, Velcro was found to be quieter and more comfortable, with less noise.

What is more beautiful as a result - Velcro or thorns?

On ice and snow, it is important to use a studded rubber tire, just as Velcro works a little better on asphalt.

This is in the middle, but in practice everything depends on specific tire models. With every cold weather coming, some car enthusiasts inevitably face the problem of choosing a winter tire for their car. Let’s not get too excited about the particularities and principles of the “work” of each of them.

Spiked gum, or simply “spiked gum”, and gum with special embedments into which metal spikes are inserted.

How are Velcro sticks used to save adhesions on a slimy surface? The secret to success lies in the design of their tread, which is equipped with thin narrow slits, which effectively drain water from the contact zone of the tire with the snowy surface. Even the thinnest spittle, which is created as a result of snow melting, absorbs the guilt of licking. Of course, it’s impossible to explain all the power without the obviousness of the cuts - the leather version of the protector goes through the difficult stage of computer modeling before being tested in real minds. At all stages, various adjustments are made in order to achieve optimal final results.

When there is a lot of roads with a twisted crag, then a significant role is played by the numerous microscopic spikes that are present on remaining versions"Velcro" of many wired transmitters.

It’s true, about the same analogues

metal spikes here they say for a long time. Having grown up with different types of winter tires, time and information on the head of nutrition: what is better - thorns or Velcro? However, it is impossible to establish an unambiguous conclusion here, since the behavior of the skin and the surfaces varies significantly depending on the variants of the skin, such as winter period

Thus, during tests on asphalt, between two types of winter gum with a slight stretch, it would be possible to put a sign of equality, as if not a couple of short studded tires.

The first is an increase in noise, the other is accelerated destruction, especially at above-zero temperatures.

Trivals of traveling on asphalt lead to the inevitable loss of thorns, without which the thorned gum loses its bitterness. Deprived of the basic elements that would provide the necessary vital power, the “spiking” does not become “Velcro” at all, the fragments of the warehouse of gum and tiny treads were fragmented to completely different principles roboti. Snow

When tested on snowy conditions, friction tires are less competitive, once again outperforming their “toothed” opponents.

However, we immediately need to wash ourselves with a snow pillow of medium thickness and a watery porridge that settles in warm weather or with the infusion of reagents. Severely frozen snow is comparable to ice, which means that there is a little less to say about the new one. However, behind the displays of the last year's galm and the hour of dispersing in the snow, the “Velcro” looms over the edge, increasingly becoming more complacent and increasingly accelerating. In the first case it is insignificant and is close to 2%, in the other it is even more significant - close to 12-14%. I really want to jump on the road surface, which is a water and mud mess.

What can be taken away from the result? And for those in a particular climate zone and locality, priority may be given to either of two types of tires. Meals about those yak

Zimova guma in short: spikes or “velcro”, there is no single correct type. Anyone who is wary of the bark of studded tires should take precautions sooner rather than later. Even when driving on Velcro on a heavily frozen road, the stench is not so good, all it takes is one wrong maneuver to waste the car. We hope that the state has been brought to your attention, and the winter gum has been collected to ensure trouble-free water supply.

Hello everyone!

We already talked about how important the camp is automobile gumi in the minds of exploitation in

winter hour

Roku.

It seems that every time you have worn out the ice and the ice, you feel like you have similar “belongings”.

In one of the great materials we talked about.

These tires, which are not equipped with spikes, were originally designed for use on European roads, as winter wears down due to mild climate conditions.

Dosit, in any case, the roads will be supported in them, whatever the fate.

In a number of European countries, studded tires are prohibited, so those there are left with only one choice: tires without studs.

Equal characteristics Well, which is better - the first type of gum or the other? There is a lot to be learned here not only from climate-conscious minds, but also from the intensity and mode of operation of the car.

  • If a driver plans to commute to and from work in the great metropolis, then friction tires will be a good choice for him.
  • For those who, due to obligatory service or burial, often see tolls on interstate highways or live in a small place, depending on the clearing of roads and especially courtyards, it seems that it is not even better to understand your ir on the original studded gum.
  • It’s worse to be in the minds of the place, but there are no equals on the filthy cleansing paths.

Assessable series

, which became known after the completion of the final test, which tires were installed:

What nutrition can many readers ask us? His main tasks are to inform other participants in the movement. You will need to glue it to the back side if you are painting a car with studded rubber. Vіn is a three-piece tablet, lined with red felt. A large letter “Ш” is placed in the center.

Most often it is glued to the lower or upper corner rear warehouse- The rules do not cover a specific location, depending on the premises.

What is the sign of water that goes behind

transport arrangements

Naturally, we were influenced by the thoughts of the fakhivts of various companies, but still maintained a cautious approach. Engineers from Continental and Michelin, for example, claim that the temperature of studded and non-studded tires is 15 degrees below zero. If it is warmer, spikes are effective on the ice; if it is colder, Velcro is effective.

When the weather is so cold, the weather is so respectful. Short ice helps the Velcro sticks, which avoid micro-irregularities, and on a glossy surface they are more likely to break out of the existing spikes - this is obvious and does not require explanation. In the morning when it's sunny and frosty, you can melt a little ice and make it slimy, just in advance for Velcro.

So in the brightest sunshine

clean ice Spikes may appear intensely at -20-25°C. During the temperature test summer tires(ZR, 2008, No. 8) we have come to the fore of similar achievements (before speaking, our results have already affected the wire tire companies).

Now let’s try to determine the effectiveness of fizzing and Velcro on ice at different temperatures. An example from life - a section of the road in front of the stop line is painted to a close glare. Testing took place in the wild year of 2008.

They had the fate of studded 195/65R15 and Velcro of a larger size - 205/55R16.

There is little difference to our cause and the battle does not add up.

We included before the “clawed” group

Michelin X-Ice

Warming down to -5°C has a lasting effect: the heels begin to fade.

Moreover, with a great advantage, not even 90%!

The water that comes between the ice and the tire works like butter and Velcro sticks.

At the same time, the softening of the ice allows you to launch the gaps deeper, which means that the spikes are more effective.

The closer it is to zero, the more water there is in contact.

It's also important that the spikes get stuck in the softened ice, tearing it up and losing their effectiveness.

Ale is not as menacing as Velcro.

It turns out that studded tires are universal on wet surfaces.

Don't be careful: on smooth ice, especially on a sunny day, and these and other tires tend to tread harder at lower temperatures.

FROZY

The most beautiful galmine power in a non-studded Michelin: 30.3 m. The average velcro velcro strap is 31.3 m. In Conti spikes the galm is 5.5 m more beautiful than the Michelin spiked diamond spikes.

With a distance of 6.1 m, or 19.5%, go over the Velcro!

Cold

We were grateful that from the beginning the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R galvanization on ice was in front, the results stabilized until the next test.

It was assumed that such a change in parameters is associated with the presence of special “capacities” in the protector, intended for removing water from contact pads. When driving along the snowy road to the ice maidan, the snow disappears in them. As a result, the car licks onto the snow grains, and after several passes the snow flies off the tires and the galvanization is performed on clean ice. Fakhivtsi Nokian Tires

We didn’t encounter any similar problems in our tests. They kept the tires at above-zero temperatures (in our case, in a cold container), but they changed them in a warm box. Warm tires are easily removed from the snow when the car travels along the snowy road to the Krizhany village.

Find out what kind of car is on these tires after dry parking in the cold galmuvatim hotter until the stench warms up.

To avoid this effect, the designers decided to make the inner surface of the “guts” smooth, so that the snow would not rub off on them.

For this purpose, the elements of the molds that form the walls of the containers were carefully polished.
