The threshold is rapidly selected summer, green trees, from warm returning birds. Nothing changes only for the Russian motorist – for winter tires he was going to ride until at least September, and the maximum – before the first crash. The idea to buy summer tires do not even come to mind – save it! In fact, no economy here is not in sight. Over the summer, winter tires completely erased on the hot asphalt, so that in autumn next purchase Winter tires will in any case. Once you have left for summer tires and a set of winter, you can forget about buying new tires for three to four years. It would seem that there are universal all-season tires – ready-made solution to all problems with "Pereobuvkoy" car. Maybe.

But only in countries with temperate climates, to which Russia, unfortunately, not true. Huge contrast between winter and summer temperatures average in the country's hard not to notice. Accordingly, manufacturers of universal covers can not guarantee that a tire -30 behave on the road as well as in 30. Namely, such a spread of temperatures and observed for example in the Ural region. Thus, winter or Summer tires in Yekaterinburg, a large margin bypass "vsesezonku" in the competition. The fact is that winter tires are different from the summer not only relief but also the chemical composition of the rubber.

Thus, winter tires less rigid and more flexible, allowing them to not freeze in severe frosts. In turn, the summer tires are made of the harder types of rubber to effectively implement the dynamic characteristics of the car dry pavement. Do not forget that the "dry asphalt in the summer added to the same" wet asphalt, that is, rainfall of varying intensity. Summer tires in this case is equipped with longitudinal grooves for water drainage, the reducing the effect of hydroplaning. In winter, this method does not work, but rather to prevent a fight with the snow and ice, so winter tires are not equipped with such means. The above differences have a direct impact on characteristics of the car, especially at the agility and braking distance. It is hard to find a more compelling reasons to get used to the summer – summer tires, winter – winter. But before you buy summer tires, you should consider – in what conditions they will use. Summer tires are divided into three types: travel, universal, and all terrain tires. The key difference is the tread. So, the road tires it is a series of checkers or ribs separated by not wide grooves for better grip with asphalt or concrete. Summer tires all terrain have developed lugs on the edges and solid undeformable checkers at the center treadmill. This is ideal for frequent outings, but on urban roads, these tires lose other types due to increased fuel consumption and excessive noise while driving. If selected on the nature to be only occasionally, you should pay attention to the universal form of tires.
