Recommendations for the selection of winter tires on Lada Grant Liftbek. What is the size of the rubber suitable for Lada Grant? Winter Wheels Lada Grant

Grant is a relatively new front-wheel drive machine, developed by a vase based on viburnum, and launched in production in 2011. From that time, along with Sedan models, Lada Grant Liftbek began to be released. Changing body did not affect the dimension of tires, unlike the modification of Sedan Sport.

We offer to familiarize yourself with the parameters of the tires applied on these cars, as well as imagine a small selection of models for winter and summer.

Basic sizes of tires

In principle, to find out what size of tires to Lada Grant can be put, it is enough to look into the passport or on the plate on the inside of the car door.

Nevertheless, we present to your attention the list of parameters that declares the manufacturer on the example of modifications 2018 release:

Tire pressure

What bus tires are suitable for Lada Grant we found out - now we will deal with pressure. It depends very much during the operation of tires, the purchase of which is one of the sources of consumption of any car owner. Pressure must be constantly monitored so that the tires are not worn too quickly.

Premature wear occurs when the pressure is lack, but also pumping is fraught with consequences.

• If the pressure is regularly understated by 0.5 atm less than the rate for 14 radius in 1.9 atm in front, and 2.0 atm behind, the tires will serve 4 times less - plus the fuel consumption increases.
• With even greater lack of pressure, the machine may lose control, increases the braking path.
• If you drive for a long time on the harassed wheels, and then pump them, the tire can simply explode.

Therefore, you need to have a pressure gauge, from time to time to make measurements (especially in winter), and if you need to pump the wheels. In the front and rear pair of tire pressure should be the same.

Specific indicators depend on the size of the wheels. Take, for example, a 195/50 profile, which is one of the replacement options for Lada Sedan Sport. If it is radius 15, then the optimal pressure is 2.3 atm, and in 16 radius you need to download 2.4 atm.

Selection of tires in models

Knowing the size of "shoes", it remains only to choose a style. Any car must have two sets of rubber: winter and summer. Winter tires put, without waiting for frosts, and then when the thermometer column regularly falls below +5 degrees.

To save on the purchase of winter tires, some drivers accept the erroneous solution to ride at all season. Therefore, we will make a slight digression, and explain why you do not need to do so.

When and what rubber is needed for the machine

Immediately, let's say that tires, which would be stable in any conditions, does not happen. Why then the tire is called all-season? Because of the tread, which should have a deep relief and grooves, through which water is easy, dirt, snow porridge.

All-season is called rubber, which is comfortable to ride in the offseason, when the air temperature varies from +7 to -10 degrees. It is often worth the designation M + S (dirt / snow) that many confuses.

But in fact, all-season is a summer tire, and is not suitable for year-round ride even in the southern regions of the country.

• All mud tires, and all winter, have a all-season protector. The difference is only as part of rubber, which is designed for the positive or minus operation of the wheel. On the winter tire, a lot of stray lamellas make for a better clutch with an icy dear, which distinguishes it from all-season.
• The naughty winter tire in the people is called velcro. On such a rubber, the car feels perfectly in the ice, but when there is a stable plus temperature on the street (above + 6-7 degrees), it is necessary to rebuild it in the summer.
• Winter tires are much softer, so if you try to ride on it and in summer, it is quickly causing. For ride in the snow, studded tires are better suited, so when in winter you have to ride not by cleaned asphalt, but on a seeking road, preference is better to give spike.
• All year round, the freight cars, buses who change the wheels - the labor-intensive process, are mainly driving, and there are usually more than four of them. True, in severe frosts and snowfalls them in such a rubber they are not at all sweet.

And another important factor - for those who spend a lot of time behind the wheel. The bus for winter exploitation is much softer than summer, but also when it moves the noise, especially studded.

Summer, and she and all-season, on a strong frost "Dubet" and straight threatening. And this is not to mention that on the ice you will not go on it how much to do figure skating.

Winter tires on Lada Granta

Now let's see what winter tires to choose a grant to Lada:

Relatively new model developed by German continental together with Italian engineers, and launched into production at the facilities of the Nizhnekami bus factory.

Asymmetrical pattern of the tread, the combination of median blocks with rows of spikes along the edges and the technology of variable rigidity of the sidewalls provide a safe movement, stability on turns and when crossing the irregularities of the road.

Winter tires from the Japanese Toyo deservedly considered one of the best. If only sellers and those who traveled on it did not know about it, then not so long ago did not leave doubts on the test.

OBSERVE GARIT G3-ICE tires competed from Finnish Hakkapeliitta-7, slightly yielding to her on the snowy areas and pulling out ahead on the rolled track. Experts believe that the whole thing is in spikes that protrude beyond the surface of the tire is more than 1.2mm.

Another novelty. Ultipical tread pattern - as, however, all models from Goodyear. Looking at him, it seems that the whole wheel is simply cut by grooves. It is they who provide a tire of excellent handling in loose snow.

Another distinctive feature is the spikes in the shape of a hexagon, which make it possible to quickly accelerate and safely slow down.

Winter hypers of different generations from the Korean manufacturer Hankook has long established itself as an excellent combination of price and quality. The latter model is somewhat recycled, the form of some elements of the tread changed slightly, although the symmetry of the pattern and the orientation was saved.

Massive blocks on the sides came to replace narrow robers, and the tire began to work better in ice.

Best models for summer

Now imagine several decent summer models:

The protector of this Japanese tire is designed by new technology (Nano-Protech), which allowed to reduce the coefficient of resistance to rotation, and as a result, save fuel consumption. Plus, the EP150 turned out to be more easy in weight and practically silent.

Another Japanese tire produced in Malaysia. Very soft tires, extensively balanced and slows down, thanks to the deep tread, self-cleaning from dirt and snow. With all this, the most pleasant thing is low price.

Serbian Kormoran is designed for Mishlen technology. The tire is stable when driving at speed, not "floats", hitting in a puddle, is perfectly connected with the road and controlled on turns.

Matador MP 47 Hectorra

Summer tire from Slovenia MP-47 Hectorra in the new generation perfectly behaves both on dry and on wet coatings due to an asymmetrical pattern with four deep longitudinal grooves.

The tread elements are maximally optimized, which improves efforts during acceleration and braking, reduces the noise level.

Conclusion

What are the better winter tires for the car, or what to rebuild it for the summer, decide, of course, the owner. It all depends on what climatic zone you have to use the car, which roads ride. And our information is intended to understand the characteristics of certain models and the feasibility of their use.

Many specialists are so-called say that for the city in winter it will be better not studded tires, but a velcro. Maybe so, but we have a lot of snow in the winter, and do not always have time to clean, and I choose quite often on the track, so my choice will definitely in favor of studded rubber.

So, before buying, I studied a lot of forums and looked dozens of tests, including the autores and driving, read thousands of reviews and different rubber and only after that I chose the range from which I will choose the Winter shoes for my Lada. And this list for ourselves was:

1. Continental ContileContact - German brand

2. Nokian Hakkarelitta 7 - Legendary Finnish Tire Brand

3. Gislaved Nord Frost 5 - a subsidiary from Continental

4. Michelin X-Ice North Xin2 - French company Manufacturer

So, from many tests in the leaders were German and Finnish manufacturers: Continental ContileContact and Nokian Hakkarelitta 7, respectively. And they occupied the first places not only this year, but also in the previous ones. Unfortunately, I did not go to them before, and therefore I have no opinion yet.

But as for the Gislavde tires - then on the VAZ 2112, the previous one of my car, I experienced them two winters in a row and by the way I was satisfied. The only minus for me is very fat and that they have very weak cord. Just just just catch the border and get out the bump on the side. But it was on the third generation Gislaved, perhaps now there is no such problem.

As for Mishlen, along with positive reviews, there are those in which the owners complain about poor permeability in deep snow, and for me it is very important. Now there are only two numbers, of which I had to choose myself cylinders for the winter. Here of course I was embarrassed by all the tests of almost all publications, which gave the first places of Finnish Hakkapelitta 7 and I already thought that this is a competent marketing course or bribery reviews, but after I looked at one video that was shot by lovers, then I realized that Nokian really cool winter tires.

On this video, it can be seen that Kalina, shown in Finnish winter tires, the only one who overcame this icing rise, not counting SUVs. So after watching, I realized that these tires are actually worth being this winter on my Lade Grant without any doubt.

Many owners of Lada Grant, when changing factory tires for new summer or winter, wonders, what size of the tire and what diameter wheel can be put painlessly in the car's arch. Today we will tell you in detail about it.

What size to choose?

Let's stop our gaze to the most popular discs for the Lada Grant R14 and R15, additionally calculate the size of the rubber for disks with dimension R16, which also like to install their cars when tuning. We will not consider a greater wheel base. Wheel departure take conditional, like factory complete discs. Typical list of rubber dimension You can read in the guide to the car.

The disks of the size R14 are the most massive in the class of small lands. Many owners love such a wheel size, because Disks and rubber in this amount are quite budgetary. Many choose a disk size for winter rubber. The size of the wheel assembly, along with rubber, which will already touch the shrink at the maximum rotation of the wheel is 50.12 centimeters. Tires are suitable for this border: 175/80 (75-70-65 and below), 185/75 (70-65-60 and below), 195/60 (55-50-45 and lower).

Alloy wheels of size R15 are now put on all modern front-wheel drive models of AvtoVAZ. Factory rubber size on such disks 185/55. But what other dimensions will be able to approach such a diameter of the disk? You can set the following tires: 175/70 (65-60-55 and below), 185/60 (55-50-45 and below), 195/55 (50-45-40 and lower).

The dimension of the wheels of this diameter is placed at the factory on the version of Lada Grant Sport, with a 195/50 top coated. However, together with this, the rail has been shortened there with 3.1 turns, to 2.9 so that the major wheel fit into the arch. Without problems on such a diameter of the wheel, you can put the tires in size: 175/50 (and below), 185/45 (and below) and 195/40 (and below).

Lada Granta is a budgetary mass car produced by the Volga Automobile Plant based on Lada Kalina.

This car has gained great popularity among citizens of Russia and the CIS countries. In view of his demand, the issue of replacing winter rubber on the "grant" is relevant.

The safety of all participants in the road depends on the competently selected winter rubber, as well as the comfort of the driver and passengers during the ride.

This article will review the features and main characteristics of winter tires for the Lada Granta car, describes the rules for choosing winter tires for the grant liftback and its other modifications.

Rubber on "Grand"

When choosing a winter rubber on the Lada Granta car, you need to know exactly what kind of modification of this car rubber is selected. Lada Granta first generation began to be produced in May 2011 in the body of a sedan in several configurations. Simultaneously presented Lada Granta Sport. In May 2015, the release of Lada Granta Liftback began.

The release of the first generation "Grant" ended in 2018. In 2019, the mass production of the second generation Lada Granta was launched in two bodies: sedan and elefbeck, in several equipment.

Intra-water designation of the car "Lada Grant" Sedan - VAZ 2190, "Lada Grand" Liftbek - VAZ 2191.

Characteristics

Any car tire has a number of features that need to be considered to correctly choose rubber on your car.

The first most important characteristic of rubber is dimension. The parameters of the dimension of the tires on the example of marking 175/65 R14:

• 175 - This is the width of the tire, is measured in millimeters.
• 65 is the height of the profile, is measured in the percentage ratio from the rubber width.
• R - suggests that the radial tire (from the English word Radial), but definitely not that the radius designation follows how many people think. There is no radius from the wheels, only the diameter. The radiality of the tire is the type of its design. There is also a diagonal tire type.
• 14 - Tire diameter in inches. To translate this indicator into familiar centimeters, an inch value is needed to multiply by 2.54.

The second important characteristic of any tire is the maximum mass and speed index. Cars "Grant" most often recommended to put tires 82 H. This marking indicates that this tire is capable of withstanding the load to 475 kg and effectively operates at a speed of up to 210 km / h.

Note!

The maximum load parameter is shown on one bus. Therefore, a maximum load in this case will be equal to 1 tons of 900 kg. Given that on average, the full mass of "grants" is 1.5 tons, the load on the bus is calculated with a good stock.

Next, you need to pay attention to the presence of spikes. Many Winter Rubber options are produced at all without wrong. Some have rare spikes. Each manufacturer seeks to come up with a new, improved type of spikes. They differ in shape, sizes and material from which they are manufactured. Their main purpose is to calculate the ice for better start and braking on iced surfaces.

Additional Information!

In many countries, including in Russia, there is a legislative restriction on too much spikes on a tire. This is due to the fact that the spikes damage asphalt coating.

The next important factor is the depth of the tread pattern and the drawing itself. The high-quality grip of the wheels with the road surface depends on the tread. The more technological drawing is performed on the rubber, the better the tires will be characteristic of noise, drainage and reliability.

In addition, there are many other characteristics. In general, the better than the tire, the more reliable and stable it will provide.

Low-quality cheap tires to all can also be extremely quick to wear and lose spikes, so such savings are not always to the place.

How to pick up tires for riding in winter at the "Lade Grant" Liftbek

In order to competently select the size of the tires on the "Lada Grant" in the body of Liftbek, it is necessary to know that this car in the first generation was produced in 3 sets. The dimension of the tires installed by the manufacturer by settings:

• Standard: 175/65 R14 82H and 185/60 R14 82H.
• Norm: 175/65 R14 82H and 185/60 R14 82H.
• Suite: 175/65 R14 82H, 185/60 R14 82H and 185/55 R15 82H.

Note!

The above data relate to exactly the dimension of the tires that the manufacturer sets for new cars.

In addition, the manufacturer allows the installation to all modifications of the car VAZ-2191 the following wheels: 175/65 R14 82T, H; 185/60 R14 82T, H; 185/55 R15 82T, H, V.

The second-generation car "Lada Granta" will enter the market in 4 versions. Tire dimensions by grade:

• Standard, Classic, Optima, Comfort: 175/65 R14 and 185/60 R14 steel 82h.
• Luxe, Prestige: 185/55 R15 Alloy 82h.

What is worth paying attention to when choosing tires on the "grant"

When choosing winter automotive tires, special attention should be paid to the road surface, which is supposed to operate these tires.

If the tires are designed for dirt and off-road, they are easier to cope with snowdrifts, wet snow and ice, but may be ineffective on wet asphalt. In addition, powerful tires that perfectly realize themselves in country conditions can be very hung when driving in a clean highway. On the contrary, tires intended for everyday urban ride may not cope with even light off-road.

Main parameters of winter wheels on "Lada Grant"

The dimension of winter rubber was already described above in detail for the Lada Grant car in the body of Liftbek. You should also specify the main parameters of winter rubber on the other versions of the car.

Sizes of rubber for Lada Granta sedan of the first generation according to the set:

• Standard: 175/70 R13 82 T, H.
• Norm: 175/65 R14 82H.
• Suite: 175/65 R14 and 82H 185/55 R15.

The sizes of tires for the "Lada grants" in the body of the second generation sedan are identical to the size of the same car in the body of Liftbek.

Lada Granta Sport is equipped with rubber 195/50 R16 (84, V) and 185/55 R15 (82, N / V). Lada Granta Drive Active is available with 185/55 R15 (82, H) tops.

Thus, when selecting winter rubber on the domestic car Lada Granta, you need to pay attention to a number of essential characteristics: dimension, tread pattern, spikes and others. Observing all the rules for selecting tires, you can provide safe and comfortable movement by car in the winter season. Winter tires on the "grant" R14 are the most popular dimension option.

To the question, "what tires can be put on a grant" can not be answered unequivocally. As in cases with other machines, the selection of tires and disks is the priority task of each driver, since the correct selection will ensure a comfortable and safe ride.


In order to choose the right size and find out which tires are better for Lada Grant, many factors should be disassembled that directly affect the choice.

Sphere of influence of tires and disks

To understand what tires on Lada Grant will fit well, you need to know the first to know what the amount of tires and discs affect the car. Experts with one hundred notes that when replacing tires, it should be guided by the difference in the external diameter it was minimal.

Selection of tire affects such features of the car operation:

• characteristics of brakes and traction;
• transmission;
• fuel consumption;
• atmospheric emissions.

An increase in the radius of the wheel, tires and disks have the following effect.

Legend: + - improvement, - - deterioration, 0 - no change.

Changing the size of the tire will definitely lead to changes in the accuracy of the vehicle management. Since the volume of the tire becomes larger, the scale of the space in contact with the road bladed increases. This provides ample maneuverability.

Factory characteristics of tires and disks for Ladagranta

According to the factory characteristics, the original tires on the grant from the plant have R14 and R13 radius.
R14 is a fairly classic option for small cars. Both discs and rubber with these dimensional characteristics are characterized by budgetary and find them in the market is quite simple. Similarly, the situation is also with R13. Therefore, by analyzing which discs are approached by a load, you should keep the current moment in your head.

The dimensional characteristics of tires and disks, which are also suitable for Ladagranta
To date, all AvtoVAZ models that have front-wheel drive are equipped with R15 size discs. And although the original Lada Grant R15 tires with this disk model have dimensional characteristics of 185/55, they also fit well to tires 175/70, 185/60 and even 195/55.

Pressure in the tires of the grant of the basic factory configuration, namely R13 and R14 with partial load looks like this:
R13 (175/70) - 0.19 / 0.19 (1.9 / 1.9)
R14 (175/65) - 0.20 / 0.20 (2.0 / 2.0)
Data is presented in the ratio of "kg / cm2".
Grant Sport tire pressure is approximately at the same level adjusted to the dimensional characteristics of the wheel, namely R16.

Permanent control of the level of tire pressure ensures the safety of movements and is the prevention of wear of the tires. If the pressure will be at a reduced level (below the indicator of 1.9 atmospheres), then the lateral parts of the tread, due to the uneven air distribution when driving, will wear much stronger. When pumping tires (above the value of 2.0), the middle part of the tread will suffer, which is also fraught with its consequences.

The list of negative consequences from uneven pressure distribution in the tire:

1. the scale of contact with the road expands;
2. fast and uneven tread wear;
3. reduction of manageability by vehicle;
4. the potential danger of creating an emergency on the road.

For correct measurement of pressure in the tires, a pressure gauge will be needed. Measurements should be carried out after a while after the trip so that the air in the tires can cool after intensive heating when driving. The optimal value of the value (for R13 - 1.9, for R14 - 2.0) is indicated in the form of a number that can be found on the gas tank or car door. It is important that during the use of the pressure gauge, the air did not leave the wheel.

The resulting value must be compared with optimal and run to the desired one. For wheels, which are located in parallel and on one axis, it follows that the pressure level is identical.

Is it possible to install wheels with dimension R16 205/55 on Lada Grant

The wheels with radius R16 and dimension 205/55 are not suitable for both the regular configuration of Ladagranta and the Sport model. Because of too large diameter, they will be too tight to fit that when driving will lead to a rapid wear of the testers and a decrease in car maneuverability. The owners of Lada Grant recommend at R16 radius to install 195/50 or 205/45.

Winter tires for Ladagranta

Selection of winter rubber for the Lada Grant should be carried out on the basis of the characteristics of the area, which will have to ride. If the roads will not be cleared enough, and winter threatens frequent thaws that change the frosts, then in this case the studded rubber should be used.

Tires for winter use should be gently in contact with the roadbed, which will ensure a reliable degree of clutch even on the rolled snow, and the tread base should be tough so that control is accurate. Goodyear, Pirelli anddinlopWinTeraprospace the desired dimensional characteristics for Lada Grant, namely, ranging from R13 to R16.

Winter tires will also require run-in, which will allow them to become firmly in the landing jacks. For high-quality running, it will take about 500 kilometers. When running, you should try to avoid sharp braking and slip. To improve the clutch with the road, it is also recommended to choose a tire with a narrow profile.

Summer tires for Ladagranta

High-quality summer tires must provide a high level of clutch both dry and on wet asphalt, as well as smoothness. Tires must have a wide profile, and for this it is best suite with dimensional characteristics R14 185/60 or R14 175/65.

Short check list - how to buy rubber on Lada Grant

1. Search for the necessary tires should be kept in mind the size factory characteristics. The size of the selected tires should converge with these data.
2. Pay attention to the tread pattern. Comfort depends on it in many ways.

3. Pay attention to the width parameters. On acceleration and braking of the car affects the width of the spot converging with the road cannon.
4. Special attention should be paid to the landing diameter. Tires that will have an excessive height or width can damage the suspension, the narrow tires will increase the load on the bearings.
5. It is important to take into account the maximum speed index and the lifting index.
6. DataTREADWEAR, TRACTION, TEMPERATURE and MAXPRESSURE allow you to learn the Ozavodskoy tire wear, brake properties, temperature resistance and the maximum pressure level for the tire, respectively.
