The question of the correct selection of tires and wheels is of great importance for car owners. Correctly selected wheels increase the maximum speed of the vehicle and reduce fuel consumption. When choosing tires for, it is necessary, first of all, to proceed from the conditions in which the car will be used.

Tire selection

The assortment of tires is large and varied, and each manufacturer tries to praise its products as much as possible, especially highlighting one or another of its qualities. The car owner is faced with a difficult task of choosing: some tires have a high permeability index, but are very noisy, others have excellent speed characteristics, but wear out quickly, others behave insecurely in difficult road conditions, etc. Automotive rubber does not have such a property as versatility, therefore, the owner of the Volvo XC 90 has to choose which tire characteristics are more important to him.

Typical tire sizes

• 225 / 70R16
• 235 / 65R17
• 235 / 60R18
• 255 / 50R19

As you can see from the dimensions, the rubber differs in width, height and inner diameter. Accordingly, based only on these parameters, it will have different characteristics. For example, wide tires have better grip on hard surfaces, narrow tires better "hold" the car when driving on mud or loose snow.

Car tire classification

Automotive rubber is divided into three classes: summer, winter and all-season.

Each class of tires has its own distinctive features: Summer tires are tough, have a tread that can drain water from the contact patch of the tire with the road surface, preventing aquaplaning, and wide radial grooves that serve to drain mud. At low temperatures, summer rubber hardens and loses its properties, its adhesion to the coating is significantly deteriorated. Winter tires, on the other hand, are soft and elastic. It perfectly retains its properties at subzero temperatures. With the onset of warmth and the clearance of roads from snow and ice, winter tires wear out quickly when used on "bare" asphalt. The structure of the winter rubber material can be different. Studded rubber is made of a denser material that keeps the studs from pulling out. "Velcro" is made of porous rubber that can absorb water formed in the contact patch of the tire with the road. All-season tires are good for off-season use. But since in most of the territory of Russia the weather during such periods is characterized by instability and decent changes in day and night temperatures, many car owners do not use all-season tires, immediately switching from summer tires to winter tires and vice versa.

Owner preferences

Having visited a number of Volvo XC 90 fan forums and having studied popular tire tests for this model, we can conclude which tires of which world brands are most popular: In the first place are MICHELIN products - they are distinguished by high driving comfort, have good handling and braking, as on dry and wet. The disadvantages of users include low wear resistance and noise inside and outside the car. Second place is taken by Goodyear tires, which are only slightly inferior to the leader in handling and braking. The third position in the ranking is taken by BRIDGESTONE tires. With good durability, most users attribute a high noise level to the disadvantages of the company's products. Together with BRIDGESTONE, the third line of the rating is shared by Nokian tires. Finnish products have characteristics that are more focused on winter operation and work in difficult road conditions. This is achieved at the expense of a number of other characteristics of Nokian products. Hankook products are on the next line. With good handling and decent durability, this product is notable for its low driving comfort and increased noise. Dunlop closes the top five, whose products, according to forum participants, are a solid average in almost all characteristics. At the same time, many note the relatively low cost of tires.

Using automatic selection of tires and wheels for the car Volvo XC90, you can avoid many problems associated with their compatibility and compliance with the recommendations of the car manufacturers. This is due to the significant role they play in ensuring a range of performance characteristics of any modern vehicle. In addition, one cannot fail to note the importance of tires and rims as active safety elements. That is why their choice should be approached as responsibly as possible, that is, with knowledge of a number of parameters of these components.

Unfortunately, only a small part of car owners own such technical nuances. Regardless, the automatic selection system will prove to be extremely useful, as it will minimize the likelihood of incorrect selection of wheels or tires. And there is plenty to choose from, thanks to the widest range of such products presented in the Mosavtoshina online store.
