Tire test group sp vіdpovіdaє on nutrition. The great test of winter tires: choose "For kerm"! Michelin X-Ice - the legend of winter tires

The topic of seasonal tire change does not lose its relevance - we are of great interest to our publications on this topic, and we are more honored that the black shoe changing season is closer. Let's guess, that at the site "Za rulem.RF" it is possible to put your power supply online and take into account the needs of professionals. Sergiy Mishin is in touch with you - a tire test group worker. To help you, tryouts Evgen Larin, Valery Pavlov, Andriy Napoumiti, Dmitro Testiv, Anton Mishin, Yuriy Kurochkin and Anton Ananiev.

We invite you to get acquainted with the recommendations on finding new sources of power for the readers of "Behind the Rulem. RF". Possibly, among them you will know the information that will help you. If you haven't seen it yet, ask your diet in the comments below.

Ivan Ivanovich: So all the same, hiss or Velcro?

V'yacheslav Subotin, ex-curator of the tire group: Velcro, hiss! We conducted a special test on this topic. The temperature range, if Velcro and studs move however, let's say, demonstrate the same galvanic path, - minus 13-15 0 С. A thorn does not start, you can pierce hard ice. And in friction tires, the lamellas are wide open with a lot of ice, especially short ice. At higher temperatures, studded tires are better. Ale, nuances. At minus 20 0 C, the difference between spikes and Velcro will be close to 20%. And at minus 2-3 0 With a galmive way, the Velcro will appear almost twice as large. Therefore, choose the type of tires for us ahead of the average operating temperature. Details. Cool bula robot!

Anonymous: What is the principle on the "Duster" to take? For a carload of wines on a equal footing of passenger cars. For example, for example, tires Pirelli Winter Carving Edge (sound as for a passenger car / crossover) and Pirelli Ice Zero (show as for a crossover, tobto SUV).

V'yacheslav Subotin: Baiduzhe! Resilience of SUV tires with tires with the same small tread, for example, for sedans, mainly in reinforced sidewalls. Sumish, breaker design, etc. however. However, it often happens that for another crossover, you simply don’t know the primary tire without the SUV prefix - there’s no such rozmіru.

Evgen Korchagin: In all tests, there is no word about tire RESOURCE. I choose the middle for the price spike 215/65/16 for Qashqai. Test to praise "Nordman" and "Gislaved", but after the insults, offended after two, maximum three seasons, and more quickly than the vikinut - the problem is with the cord, that and the thorns are used. For good measure, "Ice Cruiser 7000" does not shine in tests, but it's free to change seasons, and it's good to have it without any spikes. Having bought the “breeches” for the past car, on the whole, they were worthy, but they did not match with the evidence. Axis and get out of the dilemma: take tires for tests, but for two or three seasons, or still think about the resource?

V'yacheslav Subotin: Evgen! A couple of times in our long history, tire testing has been carried out for resource testing. Ale satisfied with the road. It is necessary to burn some fuel for gasoline. The rest of the similar test will be five or six years old. After a 30,000-kilometer mileage, we checked the driving characteristics of the tyres. Win the same Michelin. Behind the otrimanimi danim, the yakosі appeared closer than anything to the cobs, and the axis of the others fell heavily.

However, on some models, especially the leader ones, it is possible to finish them for a long time. The stink of standing on our editorial machines. And as a proof, "Nordman" and "Gislaved" (the other models in the same tire brand and the same tire of a different echelon) should be wound after four seasons practically do not use spikes. About the broken cord, they say not to bring it up. Shchob yogo break up, it is necessary for the season to come out with a vice in one atmosphere. Vzagali, at the "Continental" hired a mortgage of thorns - the stench of them is glued. We tried to see them with mites, such a super girl with bunnies. They shoved, like a locomotive, while they dragged. Virvali ... with a piece of gumi. :-)

Mikhail Kiselev: Tell us about the behavior of Chinese tires (for example, all the Triangle favorites), Korean ones (Nexia or Kumho) and compare them with Russian ones and, if possible, with Japanese used ones (Swiss for everything, 50% and more tread), even though “For Kerm” is weakly cicavi on the Far Skhod.

V'yacheslav Subotin: Chinese tires on the domestic market still occupy a small part. Our car driver is only surprised by them. Axis and mi are not yet taken in regular tire tests, although we want to see products from the Middle Kingdom. You know, from the first sight, the stench is as strong as Chinese cars. The health of power is no better. I wouldn't buy it myself. But the low price can serve as a powerful argument. Dosvіdcheny avtomobilist, scho having traveled all life on summer tires for a fee, you can allow it. It's really cool that in the upcoming tests we'll try Chinese novelties for relish. But the result can be transferred later. Tires "Nexia" or "Kumo" from another echelon of Korean tire manufacturers do not shine with test results. The "Hankuk" looks more richly on their background. The stench seriously went to the construction of tires for Russia, Scandinavia and other winter lands. For example, they have a tight last center at once with a polygon in Europe. That is why the results of our testing of whiskey. Used tires are not for us. Please note that it is risky to buy and ride on them. As a rule, the stench is very worn and can be worn with attached ears. In the 90s, I myself rushed into buying steel in European tires. Then the whole capital was in such halls. Know chotiri, how I got it, good tires. Putting on the "Moskvich-2141", so yogo, bidolaha, suddenly began to lead to the side. And before the end of winter, for two tires, a cord was pulled. I threw pennies into the wind.

Tetyana Rzhannikova: "Hakkapeliita" in the tests is always ahead. I for the price of the same leader. And the axis "Nordman" - tse "Hakka" past models? Abo for all the parameters of another tire, crushed for simpler technologies?

V'yacheslav Subotin: "Nordman" is effectively "Hakka" of the previous generations, and is prepared on the same molds. Technologies are exactly the same as those of Hakka. Ale materials vikoristovuyut troch is simpler. Say, a simple cylindrical spike. It would have been in a different way, and the price would have grown steadily. However, this does not mean that the "Nordman" of filth. Watch the test results, the table of vimiriv and expert assessments. An hour of wine sets the heat for new models of leading companies.

Anonymous: Good afternoon, please have winter tires for Ford Mondeo 1.5 tons, front wheel drive, 215/55 / ​​\u200b\u200bR17, and it's better for my region. I live in Saratov, the winter temperature is -15 to -25, are there spikes or Velcro? Outside the city I don’t see a charge, in the area of ​​​​the road there are rarely unclean, often wet snow.

V'yacheslav Subotin: Colleague, I can't wait! It's already the fourth time to stand studded "Nord-Frost 5". For tsієї machines and various minds of exploitation - those that are required. And in the mountains on them I’ll ride on the licks, and I’ll squeeze in traffic jams around Moscow. That and you recommend studded tires, moreover, from the top line. Like it or not, Mondeo is a great, important and yet Swedish car. You need to transfer reactions. Adzhe zv'yazok s road for the new one is not enough - insufficiently informative kermo and galma. Good tires to smooth out this imperfection. "Nord-Frost" chose, first for everything, for its performance characteristics, but marveling at the cost / quality ratio. At the same time, the fee is small, spiky thorns were flying. Surprised in front of tsim to "Michelin X-Ice North 2". The characteristics are similar, but the price was high. Possibly, in the upcoming season, I’ll still put my own Michelin spikes.

Yuriy Rogov: Tell me, please, what do KontiAisKontakt tires with BD and HD indexes look like?

Sergiy Mishin: Qi indexes appeared on KontiAisKontakt tires in 2013. The BD index tells you what is in front of you, “old”, with the so-called diamond spikes. Tires with the HD index - modernized, supplemented to comply with the new Scandinavian rules for the reduction of road surface, introduced in June 1, 2013. HD are reinforced with lighter spikes (BD) and a change in stock. The number of spikes in HD and BD tires is the same. In 2013, roci HD were supplied to the Scandinavian market, BD - only to the Russian market. In 2014, Continental announced the rollout and delivery of only HD tires to all markets.

Sergiy Amosov: It is possible to show the difference between "European" and "Scandinavian" friction tires (Velcro) with numbers.

Sergiy Mishin: "Scandinavian" friction tires are the main tires for our market - for harsh winters, they can provide more soft tread (50-55 Shore alone), which ensures the best performance on ice and snow. Minuses - good "fluff" behavior on asphalt and not the best galma. "Middle European" friction tires are oriented in Persian black for syru, warm winter. “Sharpened” for keratinization and galma on wet asphalt and thickened snow, they are more strongly supported by aquaplaning and slash-planning. Minuses - not a high ice cap.

Divided into soft (hardness 58-60 units on Shore) and hard (60-65 units). It is possible to win in the warm regions of Russia and megacities (Moscow, St. Petersburg), de lid on the roads practically does not grow. Smaller than the gum, better than the galma and behavior on the pavement, but stronger "derzhak" on the ice.

Maksim Sisolyatin: I would still like to turn to the resource of studded tires. Chi є yakі-nebud criteria (krіm vtrati thorns), on yakі you can spiral and think, it's time to change the gum? More nutrition: you said that on your editorial machines there are different tires with a different term of exploitation, maybe, just reverse them - compare with the same new ones. The axis will be ticking!

Sergiy Mishin: The main criterion for assessing winter tires is surplus. In reality, the winter tire ceases to be worn if it has lost 4 and less than a millimeter. Under what circumstances, tire makers allow the operation of such worn tires in summer. It is not correct to repair new tires with worn-out decals of the year, but the oscillators may be able to modernize the models (for storage sumish, materials and constructions). Get new tires of the same model, but with different release dates, varying characteristics.

20141013_06–2

Maksim Sisolyatin: I’m looking forward to a sprat of food. Why not "re-sound" the big and small buses? On the junctions of the Moscow Ring Road, the stench is the main cause of congestion! How to recognize the date of tire selection and what is the term for their safety? Nareshti, is it true, whatIs it better to put a smaller tire width for winter, lower for summer?

Sergiy Mishin: About large buses. In our country, there are no laws (like in the Scandinavian countries) about the binding of winter tires. “Changing” the tires and buses is more expensive, foldable food for the savings of summer tires. Ale for the great rakhunka You maєte raciyu, such a law has long been overdue. Pro. On the sidewall of the tire, you can see the “seen” combination of four digits, for example 2014. The first pair means the number of the current preparation, the other - the two remaining digits of the release date. About the term tire protection. According to the Russian laws, the passenger tire of the goiter is to serve at least 5 years. It is further recommended that you evaluate the tire mill yourself for the presence or presence of fine cracks on the sidewall. Tire builders do not recommend treading tires up to 7-8 years old, the critical age is 10 years old, and the tread looks like new. For such a term, the guma significantly loses its characteristics. Pro. Show respect for our tire tests in size 14 inches. We test tires 185 / 60R14 for a while, and 175 / 65R14 for the same cars. Shirsha tire inlet provides better grip on asphalt. Vuzka allows you to get a bigger high pet vice in the field of contact, which means you will be more likely to cling to the ice. Before that, it is easier to “cut” snow porridge on the road, and it is not so easy to merge in kaluzhas.

Evgen Aref'ev: Let's say, how to choose a studded gum for a Duster between 4,000 rubles per wheel? I live in Volgograd, it’s nasty to clean the roads, because the tires are blamed for the faults of the road and keratinization in the snow and on the ice. I'm more inclined to Cordiant Snow Cross or Nokian Nordman 4. What's better?

Sergiy Mishin: For snow and ice, Nordman 4 is better than pidide. Like-not-yak, the tread of this tire repeats the little Nokian Hakkapeliitta 4 tire - a repeated surmounting of many tests.

Andre M: My BMW X3 E83 is fitted with 17R 235/55, can you tell me what size to put on for winter?

Sergiy Mishin: BMW does not supply more than narrow tires for your car. So, for the winter, you have to stay in the same room. I recommend choosing tires with a directional little tread, so it is more efficient to clear the road in water and snow in the contact zone.

Oleksandr Taubinskiy: On my Octavia, the regular cost is 16R205/55, but you can save and buy on rims 15R195/65, which for other equals is cheaper than buying just tires 16R205/55, plus up to this saving twice in the price. What are the pluses / minuses of the decrease in radius?

Sergiy Mishin: Switching to rozmіr 195 / 65R15 zamіst 205 / 55R16 in winter minds is technically more competent solution. The radius of the stiffness of the tires of these tires is practically the same, so there will be no effect in the speedometer readings. Tires with a width of 195 mm are to be merged on water and snow porridge on a larger swidth in povnyannі z 205 mm, and the stench is safer for that. On snow and ice, such tires will have three times more cleavage, as they have three more than a single vice on one area. Before that, the increased profile makes the tire more comfortable, giving a smooth ride on bumps, and road bumps and bumps are more often worn on winter roads. The minuses of high-rise and larger high-rise tires are a little more galma on asphalt (there are other laws of physics, the width of the contact patches is changed). And also - less clear reactions to the same asphalt, due to the fact that the temple of the tire is more deformed under the influence of lateral forces. Ale, the moments described in the previous paragraph, then the tires 195 / 65R15 are shorter. With this, as you have appointed, the 15th tires are noticeably cheaper than the 16th.

TSHG: Why in the remaining two tests of winter rubber published on the site, KontiAisKontakt tires showed different results - 2nd place in the passenger category and 4-5th in the SUV?

Sergiy Mishin: First, the lists of competitors in these tests are changing - in 14th there were no such strong superniks, like Goodyear UltraGrip Ice Arctic and Pirelli Ice Zero. one dough, they will be savored - that which is drunk in a different way. One of the factors that add keratinization to the road tire couplings is to put a squeeze on the contact. Imovirno, qi characteristics in tires Continental ContiIceContact in sizes 175 / 65R14 and 215 / 65R16 are different. May value and weight of cars Lada Priora and Renault Duster - stench in a different way tires. Align the results of vimiriv, for example, a galmivny road on asphalt. In rosemary 175 / 65R14, the result of Conti on wet asphalt (20 m) is better than the "Pirelli" Formula Ice (21.1 m) per meter, and on dry (34.2 m versus 34.6 m) it is better than Mayzha by pivm. And in the 215 / 65R16 version, on the other hand, Formula Ice (20.0 m) on a wet road surface beats Conti (21.1 m) the same meter. On dry ground, the results - 33.6 m and 33.7 m - can be equalized.

Olegg: Chi's spikes are quiet?

Sergiy Mishin: One of the main shortcomings of studded tires is increased stiffness. But it’s not a smutty evil: hissing more and more galvanized roads on the asphalt (it’s better to hum on cars with ABS) by about 5 inches of friction.

Today, the Nokian company managed to fit a tire into a decent prototype tire (with a HKPL 8 tread), releasing and cleaning up studs if necessary - see photo. And yet, with all the fahіvtsі, the companies found out that the finished product, which can be promoted to the market, is still far from the prototypes. In my opinion, there are studded tires, which make less noise than others, and only less on Russian tires - 50-60 km / year. The price of tires, in some of them, the number of thorns has been changed to the rest by fencing in the lands of Scandinavia. Raju win respect on the Gislaved Nord Frost 100 and Michelin X-Ice North 3.

Artem Plasteev: Why are Maxxis not tested anywhere in tire tests? Normal tires for a reasonable penny and even with a pre-warranty, not China, but Taiwan after all. Then so, dear bezlich in tests ...

Sergiy Mishin: I don't need a correct diet. This can be set on a daily basis in the test model. In 2010, roci mi tested winter tires for poshlyahovik, dey brand zustrichavsya. Then the tire was tested and sent to the fifth place.

Nicholas K .: I have a problem: a bump was bulging on the sidewall of the tire. How can you travel far away, and if not varto, then what is better than working? Buy a new one of the same model or a couple of modern ones? The tire mill is good - the Bridgestone “Velcro” inserts, I think, maybe take a couple of HKPL R2, and leave the other BR wheel as a spare?

Sergiy Mishin: The bump is bad. It might burst at any moment, let the wheel go out again more sharply, the car can be “spent” at that moment. The best option is to buy exactly the same tire model. Another couple will be concerned about the characteristics, so the car’s behavior in the turn will change: the wrapping may become transcendent (before skidding appears) or insufficient (you can blame the sharpness of skidding).

Andriy Khakhulin: We need advice. When buying a car (used), there was a winter gum, but in the following kit: Dunlop SP Winter Ice 01 - two pieces, Toyo Observe G3-Ice - two pieces. Tire mill is the same. Vlasne, what would you like to buy, Toyo or Dunlop? Not suitable for me, if different tires are installed on the car ...

Sergiy Mishin: The Toyo Observe G3-Ice model is much fresher than the old Dunlop SP Winter Ice 01, which has changed Dunlop SP Winter Ice 02 today.

ALEX S: Enjoy the studded tires R17 SUV, optimal for the price-thickness. The more I read, the more I doubt what to choose ...

Sergiy Mishin: Read the results of our 235 / 65R16 SUV tire test. Rosemary R16 and R17 - close. I would choose the Nordman 5 SUV for myself - a lot of good tires, while being reasonably inexpensive. On another location Gislaved Nord Frost 100 SUV.

Andress: I hold two issues of the magazine in my hands: one for spring 2015, the other one for spring 2014. In both tests of 14-inch winter tires with varying results. For example, tackling on ice at 30-5 km / h in the other rotation of the Nokian HKPL 8 tumbles 13.6 m, and in that rotation as much as 18 m! And so with usima tires. Why, eat, believe?

Sergiy Mishin: The absolute results of winters on ice are not the same as those on asphalt, on which rock in rock the results can be seen in two or three meters. On the ice, the stench is richer, lower on the asphalt, lie down due to the temperature of the right middle, moisture and richness of other weather parameters. Run on the same ice on different days on the same tires and the results will be different. Not seeming already about the difference from rock to rock. You can vary the price between tires as a percentage.

Andriy Veledeev: How is the guma guilty of marijuana? To finish the cuts, M + S, or only “snіzhinka in the mountains”?

Sergiy Mishin: Technical regulations to file a report describing winter tires. Literally: “marked with a sign at the top of the mountain peak with three peaks and a reduction in the middle of it, as well as marked with the signs "M + S", "M & S" i "MS" ... Ale, when this is clearly marked, the excess tread depth is permissible during operation - not less than 4, 0 mm.

Olga Maryasova: It's time to buy winter tires, we recommend 165 / 70R14 or 185 / 60R14. I don’t know, what type of choice to choose for the winter for a car Skoda Fabia 2008 r.v. with a 1.4 liter engine. So I don’t respect myself as an ace, I fell on the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8, but the standard size is 185 / 60R14 every day. The consultant chanted 175/65. What can you follow from the recommendations of the automaker? R14 slandered by obvious disks, on which to stand the old gum.

Sergiy Mishin: If you take into account the recommendations of the car manufacturer, then only you can take the decision. Tires 175 / 65R14 are suitable for your car, as the stench is indicative of the vantage performance index. The curb radius will be closer to 165 / 70R14 or 185 / 60R14 tires.

Oleksiy Sergiyovich: Deyakі vyrobniki to promote all-weather tires. Tell about them. How much stink of effective collection in the minds of the people?

Sergiy Mishin: All-weather - universal tires for color operation in the minds of mild, low-snow winters and cool summers. Do not check against them a high-strength coin on the pavement, and a charge on the ice. In some minds, you can live on such tires, if you don’t be spicy and you won’t drive aggressively. The right Russian tax is folded. You can feel yourself impressed only on asphalt, cleared from snow and ice. Ale near the yards, sizzling with snow, in icy conditions such tires are hopeless.

Viktor A.: Good afternoon! Having re-read all the possible tests of the winter studded gumi and having chosen your choice on the Gislaved Nord Frost 100 SUV. One bida - the necessary change 225/60 R17 (for the sake of the weeder) at Gislaved during the day. Close - 225/65 R17, but in such a situation, the wheel diameter is increased by 22 mm (I'm afraid I'll be chipped by the arches with a more twisted kermі). Please, be kind, a good analog for Subaru Forester IV. Exploitation - Moscow and neighbors for the place. P.S. Marveling at Continental ContiIceContact, a little expensive. Maybe Yokohama will look at (regular all-season), for example IceGuard Stud IG55? How old are you up to the price of the brand? I don't see anything in your tests.

Sergiy Mishin: I guess that you have a marvelous attitude to magazines and tires. First of all, the Yokohama IceGuard Stud IG55 tires are dual in our tests: spring number 175/65R14 and yellow 205/66R16. In another way, the price is not an all-season, but a right studded tire, so you can’t be a regular one on any car, put on a Subaru Forester IV. Read more magazine!

Ivan Nikolaev: I'm picking off winter non-studded gum on the Nissan X-Trail. I glanced at the Michelin X-Ice, but I can’t decide whether to take the new Xi3 model or the old Xi2. How do you think, what is the difference for trips around Moscow?

Sergiy Mishin: Whether the new models are the best for the front. Nutrition for the magnitude of the power between them. I have not had a chance to split two tires between myself, but I know that on trips around the place of retail it will be practically impossible to separate. Ale, one caveat. Michelin might release an old model at some point, and it'll be out of stock. If you screw up a wheel, you might end up buying not one, but a whole set of new or another foragers.

Shakhin Tarverdiev: To help choose the winter humus. Friends please Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 or Gislaved NordFrost 100. Persha, as I marveled, for 1000-1500 rubles. more expensive. Chi varto over there? For me, stability and noiselessness are important, so there is no sound insulation on my Lifan Solano. On the doors of the car, the recommended sizes are 195/60 and 185/60, what can 185/65? As I understand, 195 - for summer, 185 - for winter. Behind the hell.

Sergiy Mishin: Typical Russian pidkhid: "I'd have good tires, but not cheap." No-koshtovny sir can only be found in one place ... Gislaved NordFrost 100, perhaps, is one of the most quiet “studs”. You have a walkie-talkie, tires are higher - for winter, wider - for summer. As a rule, the contact of the wheel with the arch is blamed for the more wide tires, and 5% of the height of the profile is not to blame, it will appear critical. In order to understand what tires are better for your car, they should be reconciled: finish picking up and put one front wheel. Prozhmіte pіdvіska, turn the kermo all the way to the left and right, put respect for the gap between the tires and the edge of the arch.

x x: What can you say about re-studding wheels?

Sergiy Mishin: I do not trust repeated studding. First, you need to understand why the spikes were falling out of the tread. If you open more trochs with a larger diameter, lower is necessary, then new thorns will wiggle again. Like wine spikes of a changed diameter - you need to know the correct ones. In another way, it is necessary to know those thorns themselves, with which the tire was studded on the back. And it's not so easy. The stench is differentiated by dimensions, configuration (single-flange, two-flange, three-flange), by materials, by the shape of hard-alloy inserts ... Thirdly, at the top of the opening, the road has already squandered the road, sand, etc., and it’s ideal to clean it up. Tі surplus brud, yakі it was not possible to tidy up, practice like an abrasive, intensively wear a new thorn and huma on a large scale, which led to the repeated use of thorns.

Yura Baranov: Let's say - stand wheels on r14 gum 205-70! power chi can I put gum 185-70 on chi disks?

Sergiy Mishin: Your mind needs to specify the width of the rim of the available discs. To find on the surface of the rim (under the tire) the markings of the same width. Won is a number, which means the width of the rim in inches, followed by the letter J.

Archi Thomas: It became clear about the choice of winter tires for the VAZ "classics". Viber leaning on Nordman 4 or 5, Yokohama IC35, I also look at Tunga Nordway. I understand that Tunga does not fit into this company, but in the tests of the same time I didn’t get it. Good food: what better to put, and what do you say about Tung? Standard sizes 175 / 70R13 ...

Winter huma with thorns develops much more intensively, lower non-studded variants. To this very reason, the breeders from the rock in the world will propagate those same models without special updates. Prote, in the forthcoming season, a few leadership positions of the past fates will become inaccessible for us. Therefore, the rating of winter non-studded tires 2014-2015 has changed a little.

We chose five of the best, in our opinion, winter tires, which do not have studs. Varto of recognition, leading technologies of virobniks win their own business, guma becomes more technologically advanced and allows you to take on the ice from a controlled position. Let's take a look at five of the most important propositions for the market of non-studded winter gumi in the coming season.

Continental ContiVikingContact 3 - the third generation of the permanent leader

Kіlka rokіv pospil tsya model of non-studded winter gumi wins the first month in the ratings. Obviously, the technical characteristics are in a fair way delivered to models with spikes, but here there are other advantages, let's talk about how to varto obov'yazkovo.

On the right, in that ContiVikingContact tires allow indestructible cleats to wind on the crooked surface of the road. Tse allows you to take smart control of the car on a matter-of-fact basis. So the victories turn into the offensive:

• supervised control of the car on the beaten snow;
• mozhlivist viїhati practical s be-yakah pastas on the winter road;
• high quality of the tread, sufficient resource of tires;
• stability to very low temperatures;
• universal mind the operation of gumi.

It's a pity, tsya huma may be one stotny nedolіk. On wet and cold asphalt, galmivny paths grow. You just need to call to see the special features of German Continental tires. In the other case, tires do not have minuses and can actually work on any car in the winter hour.

Gislaved Soft Frost 2 - another generation of rubber tires

Naiviraznіshnіsh vagogue tsієї gumi є vіdmіnne poddnannya tsіni i yakostі. Gislaved tires demonstrate impressive characteristics when finishing with a low var.

Guma under the Gislaved brand is carried out at the very factory that produces front tires. Nіmetske pozhennia and vіdmіnі tehnіchіchі authorities vіd vіdnі vіdnі vіdnі vіdna:

• vіdmіnne zcheplennya on ice, beaten or fresh snow;
• visibility of the advanced wear of the tread on asphalt;
• normal galmivnі characteristics on any coatings;
• stability to operation at high temperatures.

Winter sometimes surprises us with abnormally high temperatures. As Gislaved Soft Frost 2 tires are installed on your car, you won’t be afraid of the weather, even if the tires are good to drive and at high temperatures, you need to be in the middle.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta RSi - winter tire classic

The proposition of the Finnish forerunner can effectively please the masters of any car. The tire covers are of a special width in the middle of water crossovers and compact polanders. Ale rozmіri allow vzuti in RSi be-what a car.

The most important achievements of these tires can be described in the following way:

• high control of the car in corners;
• vіdmіnne zcheplennya z asphalt i snow;
• not bad opir forging on ice;
• good power trips to be-yak_y shvidkost.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta RSi - tse guma, yak recognized for a truly universal vikoristannya. Virobnik positions his proposition for the suvorih winter minds, and at the positive temperature of the humus, it is necessary to do good.

Dunlop Graspic - specialty winter tires

Dunlop Corporation also did not miss the opportunity to be included in the rating of the best winter tires for the 2014-2015 season. Dunlop Graspic Guma showed up as the best variety of studded variants on trials.

On the ice, tires demonstrate simply unique characteristics, secure beautiful galvanic paths and are kindly scattered. Ale є i nedolіki:

• on fresh snow, the tread becomes clogged;
• corners on wet pavement are often uncontrollable;
• on the arch of the great shvidkost of the gum, you begin to see unacceptable sounds.

These shortfalls did not let Dunlop Graspic rank higher in the rating. Ale varto know that tires perfectly win their task and can become the best proposition in their class. True, it’s just a little bit to correct the trip on snowy and asphalt surfaces.

Michelin X-Ice - the legend of winter tires

At its proposition, the legendary Michelin corporation has a lot of gumi options for a leather car. Winter tires Michelin X-Ice often become an object of choice in water, which is not necessary for a sporty ride on winter roads.

Tsya guma zdatna give great characteristics, but do not show leadership traits in any of the following criteria:

• a ride on cold asphalt is the strongest side of tires;
• on the snow and ice, the tires show signs of weakness;
• galmіvny way of averaging and balancing for any winter road;
• the varity of the tires is due to the presence of such minuses.

Fahivtsі companies Michelin created X-Ice tires for quiet waters, which value practicality. On the cold and wet asphalt itself, we will have the greatest opportunity to ride a bribe. And in times of need to adjust the tires, the car can run on these tires.

Winter gum already in 2015 will become necessary in the lands of the Mitny Union. The very same choice of tires in the tsomu roci should be brought to the skin sergeant of the car. Give respect to the five tire models presented above. Better for everything, you can choose the most suitable tires for yourself from these options.

Buying humus for winter operation, you varto vrahuvati vokoristannya avtomobilya during this period, as well as the climate zone, in which you live.

In the USA, closer to the night outside Detroit (about 300 miles from Detroit), different tests were carried out for winter, popular tires of the 2013-2014 model range. 11 pairs of different winter tires were brought on the ship, six of them with studs, and five of them could not be studded, wearing Velcro. For distant tests, the standard Hyundai Sonata was victorious, the wheel size was 215/55 R17 (R16 in the factory version). For the kerm of this car, for an hour of testing, race car driver Richard May was in the past;

Tires tested:

Tests that were held by the pose competition:

Before testing, all the tires were checked and measured, and also the hardness of the gum was checked, the swidth index was set and the whole range of thorns was measured. They disproved the weather and all the signs. The details of the tires are not important, as the tests are not simple, and the deeds are more unsafe.

Testing was carried out on ice, as the best way to review and evaluate galvanic paths and acceleration dynamics. Vіsіm zaїzdіv nebhіdno bulo proїhati on the skin test tires. The best results of the test, as it turned out, showed studded tires! - Who was scrutinized by everyone and no one was surprised, then the advancing show-offs on the right fight ...

Unsurprisingly and shockingly, those brands Yokohama and Hankook, as they protect all minds of the test, showed the best result. - After the re-testing was carried out, it showed that the brands of the guilty know their own place in the remaining rows of the test result. - The results are depriving the best of the best ...

Some of the most popular tires of the Long Run are Toyo and Dunlop. These tires do not make thorns, as they are commonly called "Velcro". - However, on the test, they did not show the stench as "Velcro" and despite the fact that all the tests were carried out at a temperature of minus 9 degrees, they simply did not have a chance.

Later, on the next day of testing, if the thermometer showed only one degree above zero, and all the tests for tires were numbing spikes - repeated. The tires were forged ... The best result was 34.7 meters, and on the last day of testing, the results reached a total of 16-19 meters. The speed of dispersal increased by 2 times! The cause of such incomprehensibility was water, as on the first day the test was settled at the point of contact between tires and ice. Nareshti Japanese technologies could, on the right, show themselves and viyshov vіdminniy result - what a vicious attack! Dunlop tires showed bad results, and Toyo tires could not show the best result, after the test was repeated at a temperature of +1 degrees below zero.

It is also necessary to see the tires Michelin X-lce 2, as they showed good results in independence from weather minds. This is a universal type of tire, which is recommended today for everyday driving.

Also, the three leaders of the test showed the best results: Nokian, Continental, Michelin. It's a pity and I'm sorry to say that the greatest result of the Michelin X-lce 2 tire was not shown. A lot of them were beaten up, and even they made a big bet on them. Seeing here and squealing the whiskers, which these tires show themselves more beautifully in the later straight line, lower in the transverse. First of all, the Michelin X-lce 2 cross-sectionally does not recommend a lot of facsimiles and experts, as they also did not evaluate such results for this brand.

The route, on which all the tests were carried out, were periodically reviewed and some changes were made. Easier and simpler would be to determine the results of testing tires for snow. The snow cover was stable, the area was richer, - for this reason, the leather brand of tires needed to be built 12-14 times. The best results were shown by Michelin tires, which are considered to be one of the best tires for snow. When studded, the X-Ice 2 tires were not studded. When galvanized, the results showed studded tires X-Ice North. Testing showed that nothing can be found on the landfill!

The authors of the test were dismayed by the result of the Sonata, how small the automatic transmission showed its results, as they have already said for themselves. It appeared that the tires were free and fast to ride in the snow, and with the help of water, the greatness of satisfaction was taken!

And the axle of the tires Continental ContilceContact and Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7 - turned out to be indispensable for coping with the creek and the slimy road.

Tires Michelin showed that the shortest choice for the mіskoї, povsjakdennoї їzdi, yakі showed the superiority of management.

So, after all tests, one more test was carried out on vipadannі thorns. It turned out that not one brand spent the whole hour of testing the same, which really amazed the rich journalists, who were watching over the entire process.

This test has raised a myth about those that on an asphalt road, studded tires work a little faster, lower without studding.

The rest of the tests became - opir according to Suga. We have tested the special Volkswagen Transporter. The car is guilty of vizhdzhati on a cover of 3.5 cm. Asphalt is covered with snow, and it is broken up until the moment when the wines do not make absolute contact with the hard surface. For this test, only swidk was important; Continental СontiVikingСontaсt 5 and Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7 showed better results in each test. Without admitting, scho in this trial, the best two brands appear.

All tests were evaluated on a ten-point scale and the axis of the stench was able to test:

The best studded tires showed tires - Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7, with a small gap, the foot tires appeared: Michelin X-lсe North 2 and Сontinental СontilсeContact, - yakі may be tezh you can do it!

The best non-studded tires were the tires - ContiVikingContact 5. Let's follow the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R, - which was a 0.05-point drop in the crossover - ContiVikingContact 5.

Finnish tires have always been famous for their fineness. The axle and the tires were outrageous, having shown the best results in 13 out of 16 performances in the tests carried out by "Za Kerm". The number of studs increased by 50% in the tires with minulor Hakkapeliitta 7 wheels, in the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8, the number of studs increased by 50%, as well as the small studs on the tread were changed, as a result of which the stud does not cross the siding. In addition, the new form of studs allows the use of a strong retractable stud during navigation, ensuring maximum adhesion to the road. Zavdyaki tsomu, tires Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 give the opportunity to reach the highest level of the most powerful powers, both on ice and on snowy cover. Creamy, Hakkapeliitta 8 tires guarantee great traction for crossovers and light keratinization on asphalt.

Another newcomer to the market, who came from Finland, - all the tires, yak_ won. These tires are based on an innovative warehouse of gum sum with a large number of crystalline bagato-faceted particles, which form a deep ball of splatter, as a result of which the quality of tire sealing with road surfaces does not change in the world of tread wear. Tires Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 are especially suitable for the winter period, allow you to hide the wind and fire and provide high acoustic comfort during the day. From the weak areas of Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2, one can see average indicators of the efficiency of galvanizing on wet asphalt.

Shini is another one of the Yaskraviy representative of the latest novelties of the forthcoming winter season 2013-2014. Tires were created practically from scratch due to the introduction of a whole range of new design technologies and versatility, which brought the tires to a new level. The first for everything, it is significant the installation of new, resistant to revantation cross-shaped spikes Cross-Edge Pin with the function of self-cleaning lamellas from the snow and the crown saw. Also, on the Blizzak Spike-01, there are new small tread blocks with cross grooves, which can expand the tread, and add shoulder grooves, which increase the treadiness of the tires.

The tires are no less technologically advanced, although they can be brought up to the class of non-studded winter gumi. For their creation, the Multi-Cell Compound gum sum was designed, and the protector was developed for the help of a new generation of design software. The Blizzak VRX tires were designed, first for everything, as an effective way to fight snow, and for that, the tread has removed two special little pieces - an arrow-like one for an even connection with the road and special cross-grooves, which protect women on the surface. Offended by the little one, they are asymmetrically visibly one of one, which significantly increases the effectiveness of the rough edges of the Blizzak VRX tires.

Tires (like “chomus” did not take part in the “For Kerm” test) are one of the few, specially developed for suvori and frosty winter minds with roads, constantly covered with ice or snow. A new form of thorns, as well as their polypshen fixation, allow you to secure extra fastening with the road, both on snowy cover and on rolled ice. In addition, the tires Michelin X-Ice North 3 can be clearly seen in a car, while not giving a negative impact on keratinization and exchange rate stability. The third generation of these tires are now incorporating Michelin's new innovative tire designs (the Smart Stud System) includes the new ThermoActive Tread Compound in the tire tread compound, as well as the Ice Powder Remover technology itself. final Michelin spike). As a result, we will reduce the shortening of the galmive track on ice by 10% and 25% more fixation of studs ... well, more sidewalls in the new generation of Michelin X-Ice North will ensure a greater safety rate for a longer period of operation.

Another studded novelty for the season 2013-2014 rock -. Дана гума відрізняється застосуванням абсолютно нової технології шипування «Pirelli Dual Stud», в основі якої лежить подвійний подовжений сердечник з карбіду вольфраму, плоска зовнішня поверхня, що перешкоджає передчасному зносу, і широка різноспрямована база в підставі шипа для оптимізації розподілу навантаження і зниження рухливості. The stud of the Pirelli Ice Zero tire itself has a double-sided “underhand claw” shape, which allows it to more effectively “grip” into the frosty road surface, ensuring a high level of throughput with a thin and high snow ball.

New tires for the security of the unfinished connection with the road for the hour of the ironwork and effective galvanization on the low cover. Newly lightened spikes made of aluminum with a hexagonal high-rise core and we will make it easier to cope with stresses, as well as provide the necessary level of traction when driving on a snowy off-road. On Formula Ice winter tires, more often studded tires are installed, lower on standard winter tires, why the novelty provides the best performance in terms of emergency galvanizing on winter roads. The new direction of the little tread with wide transverse grooves and a bidirectional central rib ensures a safe keratinization on any pavement, as well as a smooth introduction from the snow or drive from the zone of tire contact with the road.

Let's finish our look at the novelties of the upcoming winter season with Swedish tires, designed by the joint venture with the German company Continental and positioned as a premium-class tire. This is the fact that in the Nord Frost 100 tires, the tires of the thorns were not reduced, but rather shortened the number of thorns through the new vimog of the European Union. As a result, an advanced technology for the production of "tripromeneutic" spikes "Tikka Spikes" with a reinforced construction of the base appeared on the world. In addition, the scheme of studding studs on the protector and their orientation was changed. In the bag, Gislaved Nord Frost 100 tires demonstrate simply striking signs of galvanization on roads covered with snow or ice, and also ensure the maneuverability and course stability of the car in winter road minds. True, it is significant that it is worth crying for a little more with a red flag. I will cross the Pidddddddddda tread of the tread Nord Frost 100: the central rib with grooves Viconano Zhorstko Sumyshi, the guarantor of the sides of the Great Kilkista Dyagonal grooves for the bibliral form of the special formative form of the science of the science of the science of the scaffold is the science of the scaffolding of the scaffolding of the science of the science of the scaffolding of the scaffolding of the scaffolding of the science

Also, with the introduction of the main novelties of winter tires for the 2013/2014 season on the Russian market, we got to know, now the hour has come to be ranked, based on the results of a failed test carried out by the fahivtsy to the magazine "Za Kermom". We won’t go into technical details and tell you about the methods of testing, but you can find out on your own from the spring issue of the magazine “For Kermom”. And we will induce a residual rating, having divided it up on studded and non-studded tires (tires R14 175/65 were given for tests).

Vybirayuchi productive and humous for the winter operation of the car, we will take care of the safety and absolute responsibility on the road. Among the important features of today's tires can be called manufacturability and constant improvement of keratinization. Therefore, it’s better to give priority to new products, like to propagate light concerns. If in the rich galleys of automotive equipment fakhivtsі recommend installing spare parts for small-scale specialized brands, then you will be glad to have a change with tires.

In the texts, we do not suggest the variety of propositions, the shards of the price lie in the middle of the wheels and can be changed until the beginning of the winter season.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 - the leader behind all features

Dunlop Winter MAXX WM01 - a solution for any car in the distance

Like Dunlop tires allow you to realize whatever style of travel, create safety and performance of the car. Virobnik has been innovating in the field of the chemical warehouse of the gum, having gained a lot of reach, as if it was a significant success. The tight tread block resists bending and serves for a long time. Also, the guma is distinguished by such features:

In the distance, decisions in the sphere of winter gumi were lost without any particular zdivuvan. For tires, you will get a lot of money, even if all the new products and similar propositions are presented by expensive brands with a garnish of quality of production. However, not all good options, but other types of tires offer less functional and safe options for tires for winter operation. If you have a chance to try your share, you can save on winter tires and after the season write a review about the smaller number of winter tires. Really, safety and responsibility are clearly worth a few pennies, like a noble brandy to ask for their products.

To change the performance of winter tires, read reviews about these models, which are present on the market not the first time. Most Vlasniks of such tires do not consider the option of buying a less efficient gum with a higher low var. To that, in deyaky moods, it is a sense to overpay and take more benefits for your pennies. Which winter tires will you choose to put on your car in the 2015-2016 season?
