Recommended tire and wheel sizes for Lada Granta (before and after 2022)

February 27, 2021 Lada.Online 69 003 26

AVTOVAZ recommends installing only one size of tires and wheels on the Cross and Sport versions (on Vesta Cross, XRAY Cross and Vesta Sport only 17-inch wheels, on Largus Cross only R16, and Granta Cross only R15). These permissible tire and wheel sizes are indicated in the vehicle owner's manual. However, when checking a car, government agencies are guided by the requirements that are specified in the documents drawn up when certifying a car before starting sales in the country - VTTS (Vehicle Type Approval). The Lada.Online website studied these documents and discovered an interesting feature.

The OTTS number is indicated in the title of your vehicle. We find it on the Internet and look at the acceptable tires.

Selection of tires by model

Knowing the size of the “shoes”, all that remains is to choose the style. Any car should have two sets of tires: winter and summer. Winter tires are installed without waiting for frost, but when the thermometer regularly drops below +5 degrees.

To save on the purchase of winter tires, some drivers make the mistaken decision to drive all-season tires. Therefore, we will make a small digression and explain why this should not be done.

When and what tires are needed for a car?

Let’s say right away that there are no tires that behave stably in any conditions. Why then is the tire called all-season? Because of the tread, which must have a deep relief and grooves through which water, dirt, and slush can easily pass.

All-season tires are tires that are comfortable to drive in the off-season, when the air temperature varies from +7 to -10 degrees. It is often marked M+S (mud/snow), which confuses many.

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

• All mud tires, and all winter tires, have an all-season tread. The only difference is in the rubber composition, which is designed for positive or negative wheel operation. On a winter tire, for better grip on icy roads, many thread-like sipes are made, which distinguishes it from all-season tires.
• Studless winter tires are popularly called Velcro. On such tires, the car feels great in icy conditions, but when the temperature outside is consistently positive (above +6-7 degrees), it must be changed to summer shoes.
• Winter tires are much softer, so if you try to drive them in the summer, they will wear out quickly. Studded tires are better suited for driving on snow, so when in winter you have to drive not on cleared asphalt, but on a country road, it is better to give preference to studded tires.
• All year round, all-season vehicles are driven mainly by trucks and buses, on which changing wheels is a labor-intensive process, and besides, there are usually more than four of them. True, in severe frosts and snowfalls they have a hard time riding on such tires.

And another important factor is for those who spend a lot of time driving. A tire for winter use is much softer than a summer one, but it is also noisy when driving, especially the studded one.

The summer one, and it is also an all-season one, in severe frosts “steals” and just rattles. And this is not to mention the fact that you will not so much ride on the ice as perform figure skating.

Tire pressure

We found out which tires are suitable for the Lada Granta - now we’ll figure out the pressure. A lot depends on it during the operation of tires, the purchase of which is one of the sources of expense for any car owner. The pressure must be constantly monitored to ensure that the tires do not wear out too quickly.

Premature wear occurs when there is insufficient pressure, but over-pumping is also fraught with consequences.

• If the pressure is regularly lowered by 0.5 Atm less than the norm for 14 radius of 1.9 Atm in the front, and 2.0 Atm in the rear, the tires will last 4 times less - plus fuel consumption increases.
• With an even greater lack of pressure, the car may lose control and the braking distance increases.
• If you drive for a long time on half-flat tires and then inflate them, the tire may simply explode.

Therefore, you need to have a pressure gauge on hand, take measurements from time to time (especially in winter), and if you need to pump up the wheels. The front and rear pair of tires should have the same pressure.

Specific indicators depend on the wheel size. Take, for example, the 195/50 profile, which is one of the replacement options for the LADA Sedan Sport. If this is a radius of 15, then the optimal pressure is 2.3 Atm, and at radius 16 you need to pump 2.4 Atm.

Recommended tire and wheel sizes for Lada Granta (before and after 2018)

Tire size is one of the most important parameters that can significantly change the behavior of a car on the road. In our review we will tell you about the permissible tire size on the Grant, as well as what the size of the tires affects during the operation of the car. Let's start with the tire and wheel sizes allowed by the manufacturer.

What other tires and wheels are suitable for the Grant?

A survey was conducted among VKontakte users, asking them to choose alloy wheels for Granta. 42% of participants recommend installing R15 wheels on the Grant. 27% chose R14. Third place (17% of voters) believe that 16 wheels on Grant will look best. The left tire compatibility table is built for 175/70 R13, and the right one is for 185/55 R15:

Green indicates the minimum deviation of the wheel diameter (up to 3 mm); Orange indicates a diameter deviation from 3 to 6 mm.

Based on reviews from owners, we have compiled a list of compatibility of Lada Granta tires and wheels:

• R14 wheels on Granta can be installed with the following tire parameters: 175/60 ​​R14, 175/55 R14, 175/50 R14, 175/45 R14, 175/40 R14, 185/55 R14, 185/50 R14, 185/45 R14 , 185/40 R14, 195/50 R14, 195/45 R14, 195/40 R14, 205/55 R14, 205/50 R14, 205/45 R14, 205/40 R14 and 205/32 R14.
• R15 wheels on the Grant are installed with the following parameters: 175/50 R15, 175/45 R15, 175/40 R15, 185/50 R15, 185/45 R15, 185/40 R15, 195/50 R15, 195/45 R15, 195/ 40 R15, 205/50 R15, 205/45 R15, 205/40 R15 and 205/32 R15.
• R16 wheels on the Grant are equipped with tires: 175/50 R16, 175/45 R16, 175/40 R16, 185/45 R16, 185/40 R16, 195/45 R16, 195/40 R16 and 205/32 R16.
• Only 5% of participants recommended R17 wheels for the Grant (the same number voted for R13 wheels); it is recommended to install them with tires: 185/40 R17, 195/40 R17 and 205/32 R17.

Don't forget about the rim width:

When installing tires or wheels that differ in parameters

from those recommended by the factory, you can:

• be refused warranty repair of the chassis;
• be stopped by a traffic police inspector, who has the right to draw up a report on the car’s non-compliance with the requirements of the Technical Regulations;
• fail to pass technical inspection.

What does the size of tires and wheels affect?

It is worth noting that it is better to choose winter tires for the Lada Grant as narrow as possible. Thus, the pressure of the car on the road surface will be greater, and therefore the grip on the road will improve. Also, do not forget that wide tires are more sensitive to the ruts on the road, and low-profile tires will transfer even the smallest bumps to your butt.

The smaller the unsprung masses

(this includes a lot of tires and wheels), the better the car will hold the road and accelerate faster. For example, if you put wheels on a car that are 2 kg lighter each, then acceleration to 100 km/h will be reduced by 0.2 seconds.

Attention! Installing larger wheels may lead to problems with ABS and ESC calibration (the systems may not work correctly)

Let us remind you that for safety and to increase the service life of your tires, you should maintain the recommended pressure in the Lada Granta tires.

Lada Granta Cross 2022 1.6i 106

Engine: VAZ-21127, I4, Gasoline Power: 106 hp
(78 kW) Options: Comfort, Luxe Wheel rim bolt pattern parameters

What wheel sizes does the manufacturer recommend to install?

The Lada Granta Cross 2022 1.6i 106 is equipped as standard with 6Jx15 ET33 rims assembled with 195/55 R15 85H tires. Where:

• 6J - rim width in inches;
• 15″ — tire diameter in inches;
• ET33 - disc offset in millimeters.

The vehicle tire marking 195/55 R15 is deciphered as follows:

• 195 — profile width (cross section of the tire) in millimeters;
• 55 — profile height as a percentage of its width;
• R - radial cord winding;
• 15 is the tire diameter in inches.

In addition, information about its load capacity and speed parameters can be printed on the rubber - load index and speed index. The load index is a two- or three-digit number; the speed index is indicated in Latin letters, for example 85H:

• 85 - maximum permissible tire load 515 kg;
• H — maximum permissible vehicle speed is 210 km/h.

Using the recommended tire sizes will help you avoid problems with handling, safety and other difficulties. What non-standard sizes can be supplied? Refer to the table; it indicates possible acceptable alternative sizes for tuning. Although there are other options that we have not described in the table. For example, wider discs of the same diameter. Or install wheels of the same width, but with a larger diameter, which is quite popular among car owners. The choice of discs is huge; you can find copies with the same parameters, but with an overhang 1-2 millimeters more or less. It is not possible to list all the options.

At the same time, the bolt pattern for all types of wheels is the same - 4x98. Thus, all disks are mounted on four bolts and the distance between them is exactly ninety-eight millimeters. The diameter of the car's hub is 58.6 mm.

Standard tire pressure is 2 MPa.

What summer tires are best to buy with Grant?

It was possible to compile a full rating of tires - this is justified by the abundance of offers and conflicting customer reviews, which depends on the working conditions of the stingrays. Below is a table that describes the most popular tires.

Summer tires R14 for Lada Granta

Among the most common stingray offers are the following options.

Matador MP 47 Hectorra 3

A popular and inexpensive tire with good driving characteristics. The skates are supplied in size 175/65 Р14, which is perfect for the Grant. The wheels stand out with good roll, minimal noise and good grip on wet surfaces. An asymmetric tire also has several disadvantages. The most important factor is the presence of weak sidewalls and rapid wear on low-grade road surfaces.

Toyo Proxes CF2

The next option is designed for active use in city mode and on the highway. Light and grippy tires behave stably on high-speed turns and have excellent directional stability. It also stands out for its increased stability when driving on wet asphalt, and the massive shoulder blocks stabilize the behavior of the tires when cornering. The only disadvantage buyers point out is the high cost.

Yokohama BluEarth-Es ES32

A soft and low-noise modification from a trusted manufacturer. The asymmetrical tread maintains directional stability at high speeds and handles corners well. Users love the tire's durability and stability in a variety of road conditions. Buyers consider the disadvantages to be excessively soft sidewalls.

Factory KAMA 217 is not in demand among buyers. Standard tires have a lot of disadvantages that outweigh their low price.

Summer tires R15 for Granta

Most of the ramps supplied for R14 wheels are also sold in size 15. They can be used here too, without any unpleasant consequences.

The best tire options for 15 rollers should be separately considered.

Viatti Bosco A/T

The list of the best opens with a tire version popular among domestic car enthusiasts. The tires perform well on dirt roads and asphalt roads. Durable rubber is not afraid of bumps, unevenness and autumn foliage. The innovative tread is complemented by an advanced rubber composition, which allows you to hold the car on high-speed sections and sharp turns. Wide drainage grooves quickly remove water from the contact patch, preventing the effect of aquaplaning.

Kumho HS51

The next asymmetrical representative of the rating is a proven tire intended for daily use in urban areas. The widest drainage grooves in the center of the slope ensure stable operation of the car on asphalt flooded with water.

It also uses a modified rubber composition, which improves wear resistance compared to older versions.

Bridgestone Potenza RE003 Adrenalin

The last option has a high price, which motorists do not really like. The cost is justified by the use of advanced technological solutions and high-quality rubber “alloy”. The tires are made for city and highway use at high speeds. The massive outer tread holds the line when cornering. The central part provides excellent directional stability.

It all depends on operating conditions and load

It is recommended to pay attention to factors here

1. The road surface on which vehicles primarily travel.
2. Intensity and average speed of operation.
3. Applied load. This means whether the car is loaded with additional cargo and how aggressive the driver’s driving style is. Definitely in a quiet ri much longer than under racing loads.

Also, when selecting tires, you should not rely on their size. Many manufacturers produce popular models in a wide range.

Review of the best summer and winter tires for Lada Granta

The most popular winter tires:

• Vredestein Wintrac Xtreme S - the tread consists of Velcro, which provides maximum traction on wet asphalt and loose snow. The maximum temperature of use is 25°C. The critical point is -35°. The average cost in online catalogs is from 8,500 rubles.
• Goodyear UltraGrip Performance Gen-1 - balanced price-quality ratio. The tire provides good traction on loose snow and ice at sub-zero temperatures. Average price from 7,000 rubles.
• Dunlop Winter Sport 5 is a soft compound rubber that is not susceptible to hardening when the temperature drops. The price of one tire is from 5,500 rubles.
• Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 is a popular model among car enthusiasts in the CIS, including the Russian Federation. Good quality, technical specifications at an affordable price. The service life before replacement exceeds 60 - 70 thousand km. mileage The average price by region is from 5,000 rubles.
• Nokian WR D4 is an economical option for most car owners. High-quality grip, long service life, affordable price from 2900 rubles.

Summer tires for Lada Granta:

• Goodyear Ecient is a high-quality tire at a premium price from a European manufacturer. The tire warms up within a few seconds, providing the widest possible contact patch with the road surface. Rubber guarantees grip, control, cornering, and a minimum percentage of skidding at medium and high speeds. Average price from 5000 rubles.
• Grip Performance is a budget option from a European brand. Better than standard tires in terms of technical characteristics, acceptable for use in urban conditions. Price from 5500 rubles.
• Hankook Ventus Prime3 K125 is also a budget model with a price starting from 6,000 rubles. Above average quality at an affordable price.
• Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT2 is a tire with unidirectional tread, which ensures high handling and minimal vehicle roll when cornering, regardless of weather conditions and temperature conditions. Average cost from 5200 rubles.
• Dunlop SP Sport MAXX RT - tires are similar to the previous ones, except that the tread pattern is asymmetrical. Price from 5100 rubles.
• Pirelli P7 Cinturato Blue - long service life is the main highlight of the rubber. The average service life exceeds 65,000 km before replacement. Average price from 5500 rubles.

Service station specialists strongly recommend changing tires strictly according to the seasons, and to a lesser extent using universal, all-season tires. The operating temperature range is several degrees lower than seasonal tires, resulting in reduced vehicle controllability.

Indexes and markings of tires on Lada Granta

To choose the right tire you need to be able to read the indices and other symbols on the tires, namely:

• “T” - the maximum permitted speed of movement is not more than 195 km / h. “H” - up to 205 - 210 km/h. It is not recommended to exceed the speed range, as there is a high probability of shooting, cord deformation, and, as a result, an emergency;
• “Q” - load capacity index: from 85 to 490 kg;
• “ET” is the metal rim bead extension coefficient;
• “KM” - partial and full load index: no more than three passengers, cargo in the trunk up to 50 kg;
• “M+S” - full load - more than three people and over 50 kg in the trunk.

What does the pressure in Lada Granta tires affect?

• Safety and comfort when traveling by car. Over-inflated tires become hard and produce a distinct knocking sound when they hit a hole or bump. There is a high probability that the metal rim will be deformed and the camber-toe angle will be disrupted.
• Fuel consumption: the lower the pressure, the more effort the engine needs to put in to rotate the wheel and move the car. In the case of overinflated tires, fuel consumption is within normal limits.
• Chassis and suspension of the vehicle: overinflated tires do not dampen impacts from unevenness and potholes, but fully transfer them to steering rods, ends, and ball joints. Thus, the elements of the steering system fail faster.
• Shock absorbers and strut pressure springs: similar to the steering rack, rods, and tips, the elements wear out faster due to systematic work. Sharp jolts and impacts cause the spring coils to burst, become deformed, and the shock absorber rod breaks the cylinder.

If you encounter any difficulties with repairs or diagnostics of components and assemblies, contact specialists from service stations, workshops, and service centers for help.

Expert advice

When choosing tires for a car, you must first follow the manufacturer's instructions. Ask yourself a few questions.

• On what roads will the car be primarily used?
• Do you need increased cross-country ability?
• How much of the route will be city roads and how much will be highways?
• Will the vehicle carry heavy loads?

The answers to these and similar questions will help determine which tire parameters you need to pay special attention to.

How to choose the right wheels for Lada Granta Cross 2022?

• Stamped (economical price category) - made from a sheet of iron by stamping on a press.
• Light alloy - manufactured by casting (more reliable than stamped ones).
• Forged (the highest quality and more expensive than the previous ones) - made from light alloys by stamping at high temperatures.

The choice depends on financial capabilities. However, it should be borne in mind that the quality of the road surface on which you have to drive every day must also be taken into account.

So, if it gets into a hole, a stamped disk will bend and will not cause harm to the tire, but a forged or cast one can cut it. There is a possibility that the cast disc may burst or crack.

It should also be noted that repairing “stamping” wheels is cheaper than repairing cast or forged wheels. But wheels with high-quality cast and forged disks kill the suspension less, because lighter and have more perfect geometry (better balanced).

The same wheels may or may not rub with tires on the same car - wheel alignment adjustment will help here.

What is the tire pressure?

It is the driver's responsibility to constantly monitor tire pressure. This will avoid standard problems associated with vehicle operation. An abnormal pressure value often causes:

• deterioration of management;
• uneven tread wear.

Often the car owner independently reduces the pressure in the wheels of his own vehicle. This reduces the load on the suspension, and the car “passes” various road irregularities an order of magnitude easier. But it is worth noting: a decrease in pressure even by 0.1 MPa leads to serious problems. The main ones include:

• increased fuel consumption;
• rapid wear of the outer tread segments;
• the car becomes less maneuverable.

An overinflated wheel causes no less problems. The central part of the cylinder begins to wear off quickly. In addition, at ambient temperatures of more than 60 degrees Celsius, the tire may simply explode. Which will lead to driving into the oncoming lane.

A short checklist - How to buy tires for the Lada Granta correctly

1. You should look for the right tires, keeping in mind the factory dimensional specifications. The size of the selected tires must match these data. 2

Pay attention to the tread pattern. Driving comfort largely depends on it

3

Pay attention to the width parameters. The acceleration and braking of a car is affected by the width of the spot converging with the road surface.

4. Particular attention should be paid to the bore diameter. Tires that are excessively high or wide can damage the suspension, while tires that are too narrow will increase the load on the bearings. 5

It is important to take into account the maximum speed index and the load capacity index. 6

Treadwear, Traction, Temperature and MaxPressure data provide information on the tire's factory wear life, braking performance, temperature resistance and pressure limit for the tire respectively.

What wheel sizes does the manufacturer recommend to install?

The Lada Granta Cross 2022 1.6i 87 is equipped as standard with 6Jx15 ET33 wheel rims assembled with 195/55 R15 85H tires. Where:

• 6J - rim width in inches;
• 15″ — tire diameter in inches;
• ET33 - disc offset in millimeters.

The vehicle tire marking 195/55 R15 is deciphered as follows:

• 195 — profile width (cross section of the tire) in millimeters;
• 55 — profile height as a percentage of its width;
• R - radial cord winding;
• 15 is the tire diameter in inches.

In addition, information about its load capacity and speed parameters can be printed on the rubber - load index and speed index. The load index is a two- or three-digit number; the speed index is indicated in Latin letters, for example 85H:

• 85 - maximum permissible tire load 515 kg;
• H — maximum permissible vehicle speed is 210 km/h.

Non-standard tire size for LADA Granta

On some cars it is possible to install wheels in the size range R16 or R17. But car owners should be aware that often such a change can only harm the car and worsen its overall quality indicators.

For other Lada 2190 models, specialists and car manufacturers do not recommend installing disks whose diameter exceeds R15. Since it has been proven that the higher this indicator, the greater the risk of disc deformation. Therefore, when choosing new wheels and tires, you should not experiment with new sizes. Tires with dimensions that do not differ from the factory assembly are best suited for the car.

Vesta Cross, SW Cross and Sport

The operating manual indicates only one size of permitted tires and wheels: 205/50 R17. And the OTTS indicates three acceptable sizes:

Starting from July 2, 2022, a note appeared in the OTTS for commercial modifications of Lada Vesta TS RU E-RU.AB58.00956 and subsequent ones (TS RU E-RU.AB58.00978, TS RU E-RU.AB58.00869 :

It turns out that the installation of tires 185/65 R15, 195/55 R16 and 205/50 R17 is allowed on Lada Vesta Cross, SW Cross and Sport, provided that the car’s OTTS does not contain a restriction on Cross and Sport (at the moment there is one only in OTTS for commercial modifications).

Winter tires on Lada Granta

Now let's see which winter tires to choose for the Lada Granta:

Viatti Brina Nordico

A relatively new model, developed by the German Continental together with Italian engineers, and put into production at the facilities of the Nizhnekamsk tire plant.

An asymmetrical tread pattern, a combination of middle blocks with rows of studs along the edges and variable sidewall stiffness technology ensure safe movement and stability when cornering and when crossing uneven roads.

Toyo Observe Garit G3-Ice

Winter tires from the Japanese Toyo are deservedly considered one of the best. If previously only sellers and those who drove it knew about this, then a test carried out at the test site not so long ago left no doubt.

Observe Garit G3-Ice tires competed with the Finnish Hakkapeliitta-7, slightly inferior to it in snowy areas and taking the lead on the compacted track. Experts believe that the whole point is in the studs, which protrude beyond the surface of the tire by 1.2 mm more than normal.

Goodyear UltraGrip 600

Another new product. Atypical tread pattern - as is the case with all Goodyear models. Looking at it, you get the impression that a solid wheel is simply cut into grooves. They provide the tire with excellent handling in loose snow.

Another distinctive feature is the hexagon-shaped studs, which make it possible to quickly accelerate and brake safely.

Hankook W429 i Pike

Winter studded tires of different generations from the Korean manufacturer Hankook have long established themselves as an excellent combination of price and quality. The latest model has been slightly redesigned; the shape of some tread elements has slightly changed, although the symmetry of the pattern and directionality have been preserved.

Massive blocks on the sides replaced narrow ribs, and the tire began to work better in icy conditions.

The best models for summer

Now let's present several worthy summer models:

Bridgestone Ecopia EP150

The tread of this Japanese tire is developed using a new technology (NANO-PROTECH), which makes it possible to reduce the coefficient of rotational resistance and, as a result, save fuel consumption. Plus, the EP150 turned out to be lighter in weight and almost silent.

Nitto NT860

Another Japanese tire produced in Malaysia. Very soft rubber, perfectly balanced and brakes, thanks to the deep tread, self-cleaning from dirt and snow. With all this, the best thing is the low price.

Kormoran Impulser B2

Serbian Kormoran was developed using Michelin technology. The tire is stable when driving at speed, does not “float” if it gets into a puddle, has excellent grip on the road and is controlled when cornering.

Matador MP 47 Hectorra

The new generation summer tire from Slovenia MP-47 Hectorra performs excellently on both dry and wet surfaces thanks to its asymmetrical pattern with four deep longitudinal grooves.

Tread elements are optimized to the maximum, which improves acceleration and braking efforts and reduces noise levels.

Conclusion

Which winter tires are best for a car, or what to put on it for the summer, is, of course, up to the owner to decide. It all depends on what climate zone you have to use the car and what roads you drive on. And our information is designed to understand the characteristics of certain models and the advisability of their use.

For owners of a car brand like the Lada Grant, with the arrival of winter, a problem arises with the correct choice of winter tires.

Everyone knows that it is better to start choosing winter tires early, so that the choice is thoughtful and balanced. So that during each season you don’t have to stand in long queues for tire fitting, you need to buy additional wheels, and as a result, you won’t waste time waiting in line and you can change the wheels yourself, which ultimately will help save money. Some experts say that urban On roads, you should not install tires with studs, but it is better to install Velcro tires. But with such a choice, it is worth considering how often the roads are cleared of snow drifts, and the roads are cleared even less often, and in such a situation it is better to opt for tires with spikes. Before you start choosing a winter tire, you need to look through a lot of useful information and listen to reviews from others car owners for various brands of winter tires.

After studying all the data, you can come to a conclusion and make a list of the most common and frequently used brands of winter tires for the Lada Grant. One can note such a German brand as Continental ConticleContact; among the Finnish brands, a brand called Nokian Hakkarelitta 7 stands out. A brand of tires such as Gislavde Nord Frost 5 is in even greater demand; this brand is produced by a subsidiary of Continental. A company from France that produces a brand of tires such as Michelin X-Ice North XIN2 is considered to be often used.

From time to time, tests are carried out in which different brands of tires are compared, and mainly the German and Finnish manufacturers are in the lead in these tests. That is, we can say with confidence that the best of the above brands are Nokian Hakkarelitta 7 and Continental ConticleContact. It is safe to say that the manufacturers of these tire brands occupied leading positions in previous years. Tires under the Gislavde brand are considered good tires, but they also have the disadvantage of a weak cord. If a wheel hits a curb, a bump will immediately appear on the tire. Michelin tires also have their positive and negative sides. The negative side is poor cross-country ability in deep snow and, accordingly, if you have to drive in areas where there is always a lot of snow, then you should not choose these tires.

• 185/65 R15
• 205/55 R16
• 205/50 R17
• 215/50 R17

There are no restrictions for the Cross version. It turns out that on the XRAY Cross you can legally install a different wheel size R17, as well as R16 or R15.

Field players

Who participates in our tests? First of all, tires from leading manufacturers. This is the so-called Top Five, the top five: Michelin, Bridgestone, Goodyear, Continental and Pirelli. Another important player is the Finnish company Nokian Tires: the capacity of its plant in St. Petersburg will soon reach 18 million tires per year. In total, these six attackers sell the lion's share of all passenger tires on the Russian market.

The second line includes mid-price tires: BFGoodrich, Sava, Gislaved, Matador, Formula, as well as tires from fast-growing companies such as Yokohama, Hankook, Toyo and other Asian manufacturers.

In defense - budget tires, including domestic ones, for example Cordiant. We also carefully study the tires of young Chinese companies: they do not make a difference on the field, but sometimes we take them into our tests - what if a brilliant newcomer appears and beats everyone?
