Ranking of the best all-season tires in 2024

The design of car tires is vital, not only from a safety standpoint. The operating costs and efficiency of the vehicle as a whole depend on them, since 20% of the fuel is used to resist the frictional force created by the rolling of the wheels.

If you want to learn how to choose the right products and drive in areas with extreme temperatures, but do not know what to “put on” your car, this review is for you. We will provide recommendations on what to look for in order not to make a mistake when choosing, we will guide you by the average price, new products and popular models.

Composition and elements of tires

With slight variations from one manufacturer to another, the vast majority of products are composed of the following materials:

• rubber 45-47%;
• carbon black 21-22%;
• steel 16.5-25%;
• textiles 5.5% (only for cars, motorcycles);
• zinc oxide 1-2%;
• additives 5-7.5%.

In addition to the above, it is worth noting the presence of heavy metals (copper, cadmium and lead) present in the chemical composition of the product, which classifies it as hazardous.

The tires have a high calorific value: 32-34 MJ / kg (that is, 1 ton is equivalent to burning 0.7 ton of fuel oil). They are sometimes used as an alternative fuel for boilers and furnaces, with an autoignition temperature of about 400 ºC. Tires have a set of elements that provide them with traction:

1. The tread is on the outside of the product and is in direct contact with the road surface. It is wear-resistant, has good traction characteristics, low heat emission. It consists of artificial rubber or is made from a mixture of SBR, Bruna S based on styrene and butadiene (natural rubber is used in large tires), soot, oil, vulcanizers, other chemical compounds, pigments used for coloring. His drawing is asymmetrical, symmetrical, directional. It consists of a large number of edges and grooves important for grip. Let's denote the functionality of this element:

• provides adhesion;
• durability;
• rolling resistance;
• acoustic comfort (noise while driving);
• vehicle handling;
• aesthetics.

2. Stabilizing straps provide resistance to the tire and protect it from pitting. They are made of steel rubberized fabric located above the carcass in the direction of the tire rotation. The canvases that make up the belt intersect obliquely and stick on top of each other, forming triangles, which guarantees rigidity. These layers surround the top of the tire and serve important functions:

• They must be sufficiently rigid in the longitudinal direction of the tire so as not to "spread" under the influence of rotation, control the tire diameter, regardless of operating conditions.
• Lateral stability is also important to resist drift. At the same time, the best stabilizing belts are very flexible and overcome any obstacle, ensuring a smooth ride of the machine.

3.The radial layer (body) together with the stabilizing belt maintains the air pressure in the wheel, protecting it from rolling impacts. This flexible structure, formed by strands (textile or steel), forms straight arches wound around the bead ring of the tire. In addition, the body performs the following functions:

• maintains stability, speed, comfort;
• increases productivity, energy efficiency.

In the carcass of car tires, there are about 1400 threads, each of which can withstand a force of 15 kg.

4. The side wall is located between the disc and the protector. It is measured by the height of the section or profile of the tire. Its design is focused on resistance to constant bending loads, environmental weather conditions, and also provides protection for the radial layer that remains inside.

5. Sealants (sealing elements) perform the same function as the inner tubes of the tires in which they are located, serving as a container for air, resisting its pressure.

6. The gasket (filling) is made of rubber with special characteristics. Its purpose is to fill the gap between the outside of the bead base (heel) and the lower sidewall elements so that a smooth transition from the stiff end of the heel to the more flexible sidewall is provided. In addition, by wrapping the bead body, the spacer provides reliability and gives the required rim attachment angle.

7. Framing - rubber elements oriented in one direction, usually in a circle. They are used as a beacon for the correct landing of the bead on the rim, prevent deformation of the wheel that occurs during braking or acceleration.

8. The bead (heel) is a high-strength part of the product that prevents it from breaking. It forms an inextensible ring that can hold up to 1800 kg. The main function of the bead is to hold the tire and rim assembly. The shape or contour of the bead adapts to the edge of the wheel, which prevents it from slipping, detaching from the rim, ensuring tightness

The popularity of the models depends on the quality of each element. It is important to correctly assess the width of the profile and other features in order to select the necessary tires based on these selection criteria.

Tire types

There are two main types, which in turn contain many subcategories:

1. Regular or diagonal construction successfully withstands the load on the wheel. Its disadvantage is excessive rigidity, which does not allow it to properly adapt to the road surface, as a result, less cornering stability, high fuel consumption.
2. The radial tire, invented in 1946, revolutionized the way. In them, the casing is flexible, and the ropeways are directed from side to side, depending on the radial direction of the wheel. Later, a stabilizing textile or steel strap is applied to the casing for reinforcement. In this design, the sidewall and tread work independently without interfering with each other. The result is the following benefits:

• improved grip;
• little heat dissipation;
• durability;
• controllability;
• low rolling resistance.

The obvious disadvantage of the radial type is the weakness of the sidewalls. Parking maneuvers near curbs can damage the product by leaving the tire inoperative. Our advice - never mount wheels of different classes (diagonal and radial) on the same vehicle.

Which tire is better to buy

To make the right choice, it is important to have a clear description of the product's characteristics. It is accepted to classify tires according to the season for which it is intended, weather conditions:

1. Summer tires are designed for hot weather. It is optimized for high temperature grip on asphalt and costs less than winter tires. As a consequence, many drivers use them in cold weather to save money. This is a serious mistake because there is a risk of a car accident.
2. Winter tire is an alternative to studded tires.It is equipped with special elements that make it suitable for driving on snowy terrain, in high humidity conditions, at temperatures below 0 ͦС.
3. An all-season tire is used all year round, but it will never be as effective as a summer tire in hot weather or winter in freezing temperatures. This type is widely used in Russia. Such rubber provides safety in cold climates and with sudden temperature changes.

Tubeless tires are also worth mentioning. She is considered the best at the moment in many respects. Its one drawback is the high price. Another novelty is products with Runflat technology. They are also known as flat tires. They do not contain air inside, which makes any spikes or sharp objects safe for the wheels.

All rubber must be clearly marked with embossed lettering on both sides to indicate the type.

In conclusion, it is necessary to mention 2 important parameters that are key in determining the quality characteristics of the product:

1. The load index shows the maximum weight that the rubber can withstand. For cars, only one index is calculated, for commercial vehicles two values ​​are relevant, the second is needed for twin wheels.
2. The maximum speed index displays the torque in the process of using the wheels. Tires with operational characteristics exceeding 270 km / h are marked with a “Z” code.

The best manufacturers produce balanced designs that are in demand by drivers.

Where can I buy

Inexpensive tires are purchased at the nearest car dealership. The managers will tell you what kind of tires are, give advice on which company the product is better to buy, how much this or that model costs, and will pick up wheels even for the Niva and Gazelle. The tires you like can also be ordered online in the online store.
