What does a good tire mean?
Everyone has their own definition of “cool”. We mainly focus on which tires are best to buy for the summer for normal civilian use. This means that the most important things are:
- Strong sidewall: The stronger the sidecord, the higher the resistance to cuts and bumps.
- Wear resistance: a good tire runs from 40,000-50,000 km or more.
- Resistance to aquaplaning - the product must successfully “cut” puddles at 110 km/h or more.
- Comfort - the softer and quieter the wheel rolls, the more pleasant the ride.
Don't expect a tire to be worthy on all counts at the same time. Any product in the tire industry is a balance between one group of qualities and another. For example, a product with a thick side cord has a worse ride, while a soft sole holds better, but wears out faster.
According to drivers and taking into account the comparison of the characteristics of winter tires, criterion No. 1 is the strength of the side part, and we will build on this. We will divide the review into two conditional blocks – premium and budget. The price limit between classes is 3,000 rubles. This is for the most popular sizes on the market - R14, R15. Despite the cost, the model rating is also relevant for larger classes of cars, for example, crossovers.
