      Car tires tend to wear out. And every time a motorist faces the question - where and what kind of tires to buy instead of bald and worn out. Now the opportunity to pick up and buy tires for your car is available in the store. There are products from various manufacturers, which will be discussed below. The range is constantly expanding, and you will certainly be able to choose the right winter or summer tires for your car.

      Hankook 

      The South Korean company Hankook Tire was founded in 1941. The company is headquartered in Seoul and has manufacturing facilities in Korea, China, Indonesia, Hungary and the United States. One of the ten largest tire manufacturers in the world. The widest range of products includes tires not only for all kinds of ground vehicles, but also for aircraft.

      Hankook products are readily bought on both sides of the Atlantic, and in the post-Soviet space it is one of the most popular tire brands due to the optimal price-quality ratio.

      Разработки компании ориентированы на обеспечение безопасности вождения и хорошей управляемости транспортным средством. Для производства используются экологически чистые материалы, резина отличается высокой термической устойчивостью и приспособлена к использованию в широком температурном диапазоне.

      Elastic rubber and a special tread pattern of Hankook winter tires allow you to drive confidently on snowy and icy roads even in severe frost. But the behavior of Korean tires on clean ice is rated by users on average as a C grade.

      Hankook summer tires provide good handling and braking, even on wet pavement. Ride and noise levels are also quite acceptable.

      nexen

      The company that became the progenitor of Nexen appeared in 1942. The company began supplying passenger car tires to the Korean domestic market in 1956, and 16 years later began exporting its products outside the country. A powerful impetus to development was the merger with the Japanese company Ohtsu Tire & Rubber in 1991. In 2000, the company took on its current name, Nexen. Nexen products are manufactured at factories in Korea, China and the Czech Republic and are supplied to more than 140 countries around the world.

      Car tires for various purposes, produced by Nexen, are distinguished by wear resistance and good grip on the road surface. Thanks to the proprietary tread pattern, high stability and controllability are ensured at low noise levels.

      Пользователи, как правило, отмечают плавность хода, умеренный износ, устойчивость к аквапланированию и хорошие акустические свойства летней резины Nexen. Зимние шины достаточно хорошо ведут себя на снегу и льду. И при этом имеют весьма умеренную цену.

      Sunny

      The production of tires under the Sunny brand began in 1988 on the basis of a large Chinese state-owned enterprise. At first, products were supplied exclusively to the domestic market of China. However, the subsequent modernization of production and active cooperation with the American company Firestone allowed Sunny not only to become one of the largest tire manufacturers in China, but also to enter the international level. Sunny currently manufactures approximately 12 million units and ships to over 120 countries.

      Успеху Sunny в немалой степени способствует собственный научно-исследовательский центр, созданный совместно с американскими специалистами. В итоге обладают эксплуатационными характеристиками, которые многие эксперты признают одними из лучших в бюджетном сегменте.

      Sunny have good cross-country ability and allow you to cope with difficult winter conditions. A durable frame protects the wheel from deformation.

      Summer tires provide good handling and resistance to aquaplaning thanks to a special tread pattern with a developed system of drainage channels. The rubber compound allows Sunny tires to withstand significant heat without degrading performance.

      Premier

      Бренд Premiorri зарегистрирован в 2009 году в Великобритании, но производство целиком сосредоточено на украинском заводе “Росава”. Предприятие в Белой Церкви начало производство автомобильных шин еще в 1972 году. А/О “Росава” стало его владельцем в 1996 году. Иностранные инвестиции позволили обновить оборудование завода и внедрить инновационные технологии. стали изготавливать на “Росаве” в 2016 году.

      Thanks to a special quality control technology, defects are eliminated mainly in the early stages of production. This ultimately allows us to produce good quality products at an attractive price.

      There are currently three tire lines in production.

      Premiorri Solazo summer tires have a directional tread pattern. In average Ukrainian conditions, it is capable of running 30 ... 40 thousand kilometers. Special additives in the rubber compound provide tires with resistance to high temperatures, so they are not afraid of hot asphalt. Reinforced sidewalls reduce the likelihood of hernias due to impacts. The tread pattern is specially designed for maximum water evacuation. Therefore, Premiorri Solazo summer tires perform well on both dry and wet roads, and at the same time help save fuel. And as a bonus - good acoustic properties. In general, Premiorri Solazo are good for a quiet ride, but Schumachers should look for something else.

      Зимние Premiorri ViaMaggiore изготавливаются из натурального каучука со специальным силиконокислотным наполнителем, который позволяет покрышкам сохранять эластичность даже в сильный мороз. Большое количество ламелей и особые шипы в рисунке протектора в виде буквы Z дают хорошее зацепление при движении по укатанному снегу и льду. Версия 2017 года ViaMaggiore Z Plus получила укрепленный каркас и боковины в расчете на дороги с плохим покрытием, а также асимметричный рисунок протектора, повышающий сцепные способности шин. Кроме того, обновленная версия имеет увеличенный срок службы.

      Premiorri Vimero all-seasons were developed for the European climate and are absolutely not suitable for use in Ukrainian winter conditions. The exception is the southern regions, and even there they can be driven in winter only on clean asphalt without snow and ice. In the summer season, Vimero tires provide good handling and braking on dry and wet pavement. The asymmetric tread pattern improves traction, agility and cornering stability and reduces noise. For SUVs, the Vimero SUV version is available with a reinforced sidewall and a more aggressive tread pattern.

      Conclusion

      The extent to which the purchased tires will meet your expectations depends not only directly on their quality. It is also important to choose the right tires that will match the parameters of your car and operating conditions.

      If you do not want unnecessary problems on your head, choose tires within the sizes recommended by the automaker for your car model.

      On all wheels, the rubber must have the same size, design and type of tread pattern. Otherwise, controllability will deteriorate significantly.

      Each tire is designed for a specific maximum load. This parameter is indicated on the label, and you need to pay attention to it when buying, especially if the machine is often used to transport goods.

      You also need to take into account the speed index of the tires, which indicates the maximum allowable driving speed. You can not drive at a speed of 180 km / h if the car is shod in rubber designed for 140 km / h. Such an experiment will surely lead to a serious accident.

      Do not forget about balancing, which must be carried out before installing tires, and in the future, periodically check and adjust. An unbalanced wheel vibrates, and the rubber wears out quickly and unevenly. Discomfort, increased fuel consumption, poor handling, accelerated wear of the wheel bearing, shock absorber and other suspension and steering elements - these are the possible consequences of poor wheel balance.

      And, of course, keep your tires at the correct pressure. This factor greatly affects not only the behavior of the car in motion, but also how quickly the rubber will wear out.
