What is the tire pressure
One of the conditions for successful operation of tires of any type and diameter is normal tire pressure recommended by the manufacturer. Moreover, it may differ slightly - depending on the version of the car and other factors. Recommended pressure at part load:
- with a tire size of 195/55 and a diameter of 16 inches: for the front wheels - 2.1 bar; for the rear wheels – 2.1 bar;
- for tires with dimensions 185/65 and a diameter of 15 inches: for front wheels - 2.1 bar; for the rear wheels - 2.1 bar.
At maximum load for similar tires, the pressure on the front wheels should be 2.0 bar, on the rear wheels - 2.2 bar. You can control this value yourself using a pressure gauge. You can buy it at any auto store. The price will be 200-300 rubles.
Top 4. Belshina Artmotion
Rating (2021): 4.33
116 reviews from resources were taken into account: Yandex.Market, Mosavtoshina
The most reliable tires Belshina Artmotion tires are resistant to hernias due to their cord design and rubber compound composition. Rubber easily withstands impacts from potholes, curbs and other road obstacles.
- Characteristics
Price: 2670 rub.
- Country: Belarus
- Load: 475-750 kg
- Speed: 190-210 km/h
- Tread pattern: asymmetrical
Budget Belshina Artmotion tires are popular among owners of passenger cars, including the Lada Vesta sedan. Advantages include long service life and resistance to hernias. According to user reviews, the average mileage of these tires before replacement is 35-40 thousand km. The rubber is very soft and comfortable, but not for high-speed driving. Thanks to large longitudinal grooves on the tire tread, the model demonstrates better resistance to aquaplaning. It behaves predictably on wet roads. At speeds above 90 km/h it starts to make noise.
Advantages and disadvantages
- Smooth ride
- Wear resistance
- High speed handling
- Noisy at speed

Choosing tires for LADA Vesta
which tires are installed from the factory , and what wheel bolt patterns are typical for cars with one or another engine option. Now let's say a few words about the tire, which is included in the factory equipment of the car.
No matter what time of year you buy a car (any), it always comes with summer tires. In the case of Vesta on 15-inch wheels, it is equipped with Art Motion tires, made in Belarus (Bobruisk plant). You don’t have to be a great specialist to understand that this model was chosen solely because of its low price, and not for any outstanding driving performance, which, frankly, these tires are not up to par with.
The comfort of movement largely depends on what tires are on the car.
They brake so-so - both on dry and wet asphalt. In test competitions among budget tires, out of 10 participants, Art Motion was almost always seventh. At the stand where the tire's ability to resist rolling was determined, it was second to last. The only thing worse was the vaunted Viatti from the Nizhnekamsk plant, which the manufacturer, oddly enough, declares as premium.
But EcoContact (today the German concern Continental AG has its own production in Russia), which is equipped with Vesta on wheels with a radius of 16 and above, is a completely worthy option. The same tires are on the Lada Vesta Cross . You can safely ride them until the tread wears out, and don’t try to replace them with others.
Pressure to which tires for Lada Vesta are pumped
Note: What pressure should be in Lada Vesta depends on the size: at radius 15 you should pump 2.0 bar, at radius 16 - 2.1 bar, at radius 17 - 2.4-2.5 bar. If you forget these numbers, you can always look at the door plate.
New items for the summer season
Knowing what tires can be installed on a car, all that remains is to decide on their manufacturer. Summer 2022 is already in full swing, and therefore we invite you to familiarize yourself with the new products of this season:
Tire tread | brief information |
Continental ContiEcoContact 6 | Since the Lada Vesta is equipped with Continental tires from the factory, we will begin our review with the proposals of this manufacturer. Usually, the first set includes models that have already been discontinued and have already been lying in warehouses, because they are an order of magnitude cheaper than new products. You are unlikely to see the sixth generation of ContiEcoContact on the brand new Vesta, but we will still say a few words about it. The model is characterized by increased resistance to abrasion, as the GreenChili rubber compound, improved in properties, is used in production. It covers the tread part of the tire, and due to its unique physical and mechanical characteristics, it prevents the tire from overheating. Note: There may be differences in the tread pattern depending on the tire size. The new model is currently only available in Germany. |
Gislaved Ultra*Speed 2 | If the previous tire is a representative of the premium category (class A), then the entire Gislaved line is a medium option (class B). It is quite possible to install such a tire on C-class cars, which includes the Lada Vesta. The second generation Ultra*Speed has an optimized tread profile and an expanded area of contact between the wheel and the road surface. As a result, grip properties are increased, which is most valuable when maneuvering. Both the number of lamellas and their length have increased, which in turn has made the braking process on wet asphalt more effective. |
Barum Bravuris 5HM | The line of tires under the Barum brand is also the brainchild of the Continental concern, and also of the medium class. This has always been the best combination of price and quality, including among products from other manufacturers. Bravuris 5HM replaced Bravuris 3HM, jumping one serial number. The model is intended for installation on passenger cars and city crossovers, and therefore two modifications of the tread are presented. The new Bravuris is economical and has lower noise levels – at least, this is what the manufacturer promises. |
General Tire Altimax | Another model from the “B” segment is offered by General Tire, which is also part of Continental. This model has a completely new tread pattern and is distinguished by double blocks on the outer perimeters, which provide excellent response to steering commands, excellent road grip and a shortened braking distance - including on wet surfaces. There are wear indicators on the tread, including one-sided ones, thanks to which the driver sees that the wheel alignment angle is incorrect and the car requires wheel alignment. There are also two modifications offered here, each with a different number of ring grooves: with three – in the line of passenger sizes, with four, for cars in the SUV category. |
Uniroyal RainMax 3 | The Belgian company Uniroyal also belongs to the Continental concern. It positions itself as a manufacturer of rain tires, which is the new RainMax 3 model. The tread design is asymmetrical, with enlarged shoulder areas, which provide stability when driving in a straight line and when maneuvering, including on water. The tire is soft, with an elastic double tread coating and comfortable acoustics. In general, if you believe the advertising, it’s not a tire, but a car enthusiast’s dream. Time will tell how much the declared properties of the model correspond to reality. |
Goodyear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 5 | The American concern Goodyear presented a new version of the Eagle F1 model - Asymmetric 5. The asymmetrical pattern immediately reveals the high-speed qualities of tires, which are usually installed on cars with the “sport” prefix. · The main changes concern the rubber mixture used in the production of tires, optimization of the composition of which has led to improved braking performance on wet roads. · Another cord appeared in the tire breaker, made of a polymer material – aramid. It is not inferior in strength to steel cord, has less weight and at the same time makes the tire more resistant to wear. · Thanks to it, the tire, which could always boast of excellent characteristics, began to hold the road even better at high speeds and ensure the highest directional stability of the car. As for the tread pattern, it has remained virtually unchanged. Note: The Eagle F1 line has three more new models for high-speed driving: SuperSport; SuperSport RS and SuperSport R, which are designed for use on racing tracks. |
Two new products from Bridgestone – Potenza and Turanza | When developing the Potenza S007A model, which is another new product for the 2022 season, the Japanese company Bridgestone also took an asymmetrical design as a basis. Increased width “shoulders” with rigid ribs and inclined grooves on them prevent the occurrence of deformations from loads and improve the tire’s grip on the road when cornering. Four circumferential grooves effectively drain water away from the contact patch, minimizing the risk of slipping on wet asphalt. Advice: If you are deciding which wheels to put on the Lada Vesta Cross, we recommend considering this option. Another premium new product has been released for Asian countries – Bridgestone Turanza T005A. This line of tires has always been of excellent quality, and there are no boundaries for a good product. We are more than confident that this tire will soon appear on Russian shelves. |
Hankook Ventus S1 evo3 K127 | One cannot ignore the new product from the South Korean company Hankook, whose products have always been distinguished by an adequate price and excellent quality. Time will tell whether the Ventus S1 evo3 K127 medium class tire, which was developed in Germany by Hanoverian engineers, will be able to repeat the success of the previous model (K-117), which became the most successful product of this manufacturer. In any case, in tests conducted by the German magazine Auto Bild, this tire showed good results. Out of 20 participants, it became 8th in braking, 3rd in handling on dry asphalt, leaving behind all the premium new products, which were also discussed above. In braking on wet asphalt, Hankuk generally took first place, but on wet roads, as well as in acoustics and fuel efficiency, it moved to the middle of the list. |
Nokian Wetproof | A new product from the Finnish manufacturer Nokian, the Wetproof model, worked exactly the opposite in the same test drive. In handling and braking on dry and wet asphalt, it showed far from the best results; in longitudinal aquaplaning, it was generally penultimate. But in terms of acoustic comfort, it has no equal - and this once again proves that there is no such thing as the best tire, and it all depends on what specific properties are your priority. If you often drive long distances, then Nokian Wetproof is exactly what you need. |
Yokohama BluEarth-GT AE51 | The Japanese company Yokohama Rubber Co also did not leave the coming season without new products. One of them was a model for middle-class sedans, which is Vesta, BluEarth-GT AE51, the ride comfort of which is ensured by a rigid design and soft rubber composition with a two-layer tread. In general, everything is as always: the manufacturer promises mountains of gold: fuel efficiency, tire stability on wet roads, and ride comfort - but time will tell how it will actually be. |
Toyo Proxes TR1 | And another Japanese-made model from Toyo will be presented in the coming summer season. This is the asymmetrical Proxes TR1 model, which will replace the Proxes T1R version with a symmetrical tread on the conveyors. Two ring channels, connected by oblique grooves with a zigzag one, allow the car to feel as comfortable on a wet road as on a dry one, including at high speed. And in general, this type of pattern improves the handling of high-speed cars, which is why most manufacturers are moving away from symmetrical treads in favor of asymmetrical or universal treads. |
Of course, other, less famous companies also presented their new products to the world for the coming season. It is simply impossible to consider absolutely everything in one article. However, we will introduce you to them in our other reviews, including telling you about the choice of disks. Therefore, stay tuned for new publications!
As for the question: “ What winter tires should I put on the Lada Vesta ?”, we will definitely answer it on the eve of winter. And considering that “sleighs” are usually prepared in the summer, you won’t have to wait long for this information.

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 Vesta 2022?
3 types of rims:
- 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.
Top 2. Nokian Tires Nordman SX2
Rating (2021): 4.53
399 reviews from resources taken into account: Yandex.Market, Mosavtoshina

Tuning wheels that are not suitable for Lada Vesta
The most common reasons for installing non-standard wheels can be both tuning measures and restoration procedures after an accident in compliance with the rules of pairing, both in terms of tread patterns and the same degree of wear.
It should be borne in mind that 185/55/R15 wheels, both Priori and Grant, as well as Kalin, cannot be installed on Vesta SV due to the fact that:
- the DIA parameters for the hubs of these disks are 58.5 mm, in contrast to the 60.1 mm size of the hub holes for standard disks for West SV;
- the PCD bolt pattern for non-standard disks is 4x98 or not 4x100;
- The mounting holes of the disks will always mismatch.
Top 5. Nokian Hakkapeliitta 9
Rating (2021): 4.20
215 reviews from resources were taken into account: Yandex.Market, Mosavtoshina, Otzovik
Reliable fastening of the studs The design of the studs installed on the Hakka 9 tread contains an air shock absorber, so driving on bare asphalt does not lead to their damage.
- Characteristics
Price: 4840 rub.
- Country: Finland
- Load: 530-1260 kg
- Speed: 190 km/h
- Tread pattern: symmetrical
The decent performance of the car on both dry and snowy asphalt was noted by the owners of the Lada Vesta Cross, who took winter tires Hakkapeliitta 9. Even distribution of the load and the presence of an air cushion under each stud ensure minimal impact on the rubber and the safety of the elements themselves. The model is highly durable, resistant to lateral loads and impacts. Hakka 9 confidently corners at speed and softens road imperfections. But, judging by the reviews, the rubber does not demonstrate the best grip performance in slushy snow at zero temperatures.
Advantages and disadvantages
- Increased contact patch
- Spikes don't fall out
- Skid resistance
- At zero temperature it gets stuck in melted snow
Decoding Lada Vesta tire sizes
The tire sizes given in the tables are encrypted in the form of numbers and letters, which do not mean anything to the uninitiated person. In order to understand what parameters a tire has, you need to be able to read their markings correctly.
For example, let's take the standard size for Lada Vesta Cross 205/50 R17 89V. You can decrypt it this way:
- The first number indicates the width of the tire in millimeters. In our case it is 205 mm.
- The second number, which is written separated by a slash, indicates the ratio of the tire width to its height as a percentage. If this value is 50, then the tire width will be 102.5 mm.
- The letter R does not denote the radius, as most drivers believe, but the radial type of tire. Most modern products use this type of internal structure.
- After the letter R, the manufacturer indicates the rim diameter (also known as the inner diameter of the tire, measured in inches). In our example it is 17 inches.
- The next number indicates the maximum load on the wheel. The index, which in our case is 89, means that the maximum load should not exceed 580 kg. Data on this can be seen in the table below:

In addition to this basic information, additional information is also indicated on the tires. For the average motorist, an important indicator will be the company and country of manufacture, as well as the seasonality of the tires. Tires intended for winter have a snowflake pictogram and the designation W or M+S (M&S, Mud + Snow). Summer tires are sometimes designated with a “sun” pattern, but do not have a letter designation.
Top 4. Dunlop Winter Maxx
Rating (2021): 4.29
209 reviews from resources were taken into account: Yandex.Market, Mosavtoshina, Otzovik
Excellent braking The increased silica content in Winter Maxx tires made this tire the softest among the winter participants in the rating. This characteristic, coupled with the asymmetric tread, provides the shortest braking distance on winter roads.
- Characteristics
Price: 4600 rub.
- Country: UK
- Load: 387-1180kg
- Speed: 170-190 km/h
- Tread pattern: asymmetrical
Owners of Lada VestaCross often choose Dunlop Winter Maxx tires for the winter season, which meet all safety requirements. This friction model provides maximum grip on surfaces, including icy ones. Drivers note confident handling and a good braking distance. A car with these tires demonstrates excellent cross-country ability in loose snow and slush. For better resistance to temperature fluctuations, the manufacturer increased the silicon content in the mixture. The tire does not tan in frosts down to -40˚C. However, due to its softness, rubber does not like ruts and is slightly inferior in wear resistance.
Advantages and disadvantages
- Good grip on icy conditions
- Passability in deep
- Resistant to snow wear
- Doesn't like ruts
Characteristics of a standard tire
- The product shows good slip resistance on wet roads due to the presence of convex grooves located on the inside that remove moisture.
- Such tires on the Lada Vesta are quite stable and controllable in case of an emergency. They also increase traction after sharp turns. This is due to the fact that the outer side of the rubber is assembled from large smooth blocks.
- The outer shoulder of the part is completely closed, so when driving the car enthusiast does not hear much noise from contact with the canvas;
- A very short braking distance and a high coefficient of adhesion, an excellent balance of quality and price have made this brand very popular in the Russian Federation.
To find out what bolt pattern is on the car, you can make your own calculations or refer to the table of these indicators. The Lada Vesta is characterized by an indicator of 4x100.
Choosing the right wheel size for the Lada Vesta is not difficult at all. The markets offer a huge range of products that can replace domestic original ones, because any spare part has its own service life and sooner or later fails. The simplest and most inexpensive stamped wheels, as well as more improved light-alloy models, are suitable for replacement.
Stamped disks are heavier and their performance characteristics are slightly worse compared to cast and forged models.
There are several positive points:
- the strength of the products is higher, they withstand mechanical stress better;
- have low cost;
- they can be restored and repaired.
Lada Vesta fits 16-inch alloy wheels 175/70 and 205/60, as well as larger sizes 175/55 R17 and 195/50 R18. For Vesta SV Cross, 18-inch ones look better.
Unlike their counterparts, forged models have a higher degree of strength and less wear. These wheels are the lightest, which has a positive effect on driving dynamics and fuel efficiency. Along with all the positive aspects, forged wheels have a high cost and not everyone can afford to purchase such a luxury. Therefore, such wheels are extremely rare on Lada Vesta.
The car manufacturer made sure that the buyer did not have a question about where to get the necessary wheels. AvtoVAZ entered into an agreement with the K&K company, now the products of this plant are unified with the Lada Vesta passenger car
When choosing a disk, you need to pay special attention to its markings. The data must fully comply with the manufacturer's recommended values
Another nuance that is worth paying attention to when choosing the disk you like. Many drivers strive to install wider wheels
In this case, the manufacturer does not bear any guarantee for the consequences, since AvtoVAZ only declares certain sizes. Increasing the disk parameters can lead to loss of comfort and controllability when driving the car.
It is important to set priorities correctly and choose the best
Lada Vesta allows you to mount wheels of a wide range of sizes
In this case, you need to pay special attention to turning the wheel so that the tread does not touch the car arch. If you want to install a wider rim, you need to reduce the tire profile height
But this reduces the comfort of driving the car.

Domestic tires Snow Cross PW-2 for winter use are often installed on Vesta sedan or Cross by city residents. In terms of its performance parameters, the tire confidently competes with more expensive brands, which is why it is in serious demand on the market. The tires provide solid 5-star grip on the road surface in conditions of ice or wet snow. True, the studs can be lost a little in the first winter, especially if you drive on bare asphalt. The tread is noticeably noisy, even after running in. Due to the favorable price and excellent driving characteristics, this drawback is completely ignored.
Advantages and disadvantages
- Affordable price
- Goes well on snow and ice

Owner reviews about tires for Lada Vesta
Positive | Negative |
I bought the car new from the showroom. Winter tires were not included in the package, so as the season approached, I had to think about what tires to install for the winter. After much thought, I settled on the Yokohama F700Z model. Compared to domestic manufacturers, these tires are much more comfortable, softer and almost silent. I've been driving for the second month now, the studs are still in place. At the end of the season I will add a review. | My Vesta has Nokian Nordman 5. In terms of comfort and cross-country ability, they are not bad, but they wear out very quickly. After the first season, almost half of the depth was erased. |
I installed Russian Kama 519 tires on the Lada Vesta. Honestly, they are a little noisy, but the cross-country ability is no worse than their expensive counterparts. Considering the low cost, this is a great option! | For winter I bought inexpensive tires Tigar Winter 195/65/15. In our city, the temperature rarely drops below zero; there is mostly wet snow on the roads, on which the tires do not behave very well. We'll see how they perform in cold weather, but so far I'm not very happy, the handling is uncertain and the braking distance is a bit long. |
The question of what winter tires to put on the Lada Vesta Cross for the winter arose in my mind immediately after purchasing it. Since the weather in our region is changeable, with heavy snowfalls and icing, I decided not to save money and bought a Continental ContiIceContact. I’m very pleased with the tires; they easily navigate through any drifts. Definitely worth the money. | Since Pirelli comes from the Vesta plant, I decided to supply the same manufacturer for the winter. I can't say that I'm very pleased. Summer tires behave well, but winter tires, not so much. They are too hard and noisy, there is also skidding, you have to drive carefully. |

Top 2. Hankook Winter i*Pike RS
Rating (2021): 4.49
472 reviews from resources taken into account: Yandex.Market, Mosavtoshina
- Characteristics
Price: 4610 rub.
- Country: South Korea
- Load: 365-900 kg
- Speed: 190 km/h
- Tread pattern: symmetrical
With a careful driving style, the Winter i*Pike RS behaves very well on the winter road. The studded model passes well through areas with ice, and walks on rolled snow and icy slush. But if you increase the speed a little, slipping immediately occurs. If you often have to drive the Vesta Cross on bare asphalt, the noise level and the length of the braking distance will pleasantly surprise you. To lose the spikes in the first two seasons, you will have to try - the steel pins are surprisingly tenacious. The owners note that Winter Eye Pike, at zero temperatures, suffers from rolling when changing lanes.
Advantages and disadvantages
- Stays confident on the ice
- Low noise
- Excellent grip on bare asphalt
- Sturdy cleat fit
- Rollability at zero temperature

Is it possible to install tires of other sizes on the Lada Vesta?
Despite the rather strict instructions of the manufacturer, many drivers decide to replace the standard Lada Vesta wheels and tires with taller or wider tires. Is it possible to do this?
Depending on driving style and operating conditions, changing dimensions is allowed, but only within certain limits. In addition to those indicated by the manufacturer, the following tire and wheel sizes can be installed on Vesta:
Body type | Tire sizes | Discs | ||||
Central hole diameter, mm | Circumference diameter of mounting holes, mm | Number of mounting holes, pcs | Rim Width (inches) | Disc offset(mm) | ||
Sedan and Station Wagon | 185/65 R15 88T, H 195/55 R16 87, 91T, H | 60.1 | 100 | 4 | 5J, 51/2J, 6J, 61/2J | 50 |
Cross and Sport | 205/50 R17 89H,V 205/50 R17 93W | 60.1 | 100 | 4 | 51/2J, 6J, 61/2J | 43 |
When making such changes, the driver needs to take the choice of tires and wheels seriously, and act in strict accordance with the selection rules. Otherwise, the stability and controllability of the vehicle may be affected, as well as fuel consumption while driving may increase.
Oversized wheels
Such discs don’t just change the appearance of the car; dynamic performance, handling, and driving stabilization also depend on them. Often, all this data changes for the worse when replacing larger disks.
If you are interested in such a setup, always remember that enlarging the rim will certainly mean choosing other tires (necessarily with a smaller profile). The fact is that the outer diameter of the tire in any case cannot be larger than that recommended by the manufacturer (don’t forget about the wheel arches), otherwise the tires will scratch along the arches when driving (especially when cornering), and this, as you know, is not at all good.
During 12-month tests, the following standard sizes were successfully installed on the Lada Vesta car:
- Radius 15 – 175/70 and 205/60.
- Radius 16 – 185/60.
- Radius 17 – 175/55 and 195/50.
Note that 17' diameter wheels were installed on test modifications of Vesta. In principle, 18-inch wheels can be mounted on a car, but the outer diameter of this tire is almost 670 mm and the width is 235 mm. These parameters are very different from those recommended by the factory, and, despite the formal possibility of installation, real domestic roads will not allow such tires to drive normally (low-profile tires) - road irregularities will quickly ruin the wheels - note, at their price, several times higher than the original ones.
Advantages of mounting large drives:
- Visual effect, the car seems to become more fashionable.
- Increased dynamic properties, road stability, and steering system feedback.
- Less response from road potholes.
- Thrifty attitude towards suspension life (with a profile of at least 55%).
- Reducing the distance when braking.
- Improved functioning of ESP, ABS systems.
- Reducing braking length;
Disadvantages of mounting large drives:
- Lack of convenience when moving (large transfer of road damage to the interior and steering wheel).
- Undesirable driving on bad roads.
- Increased control over tire pressure.
- Increased fuel consumption due to the need for increased energy consumption when starting off.
- High price.
Lada Vesta wheels in luxury trim levels
Another wheel configuration option for Vesta is 16-inch wheels, which are installed in trim levels above Classic. The wheels are produced by the same K&K company and have the following markings: K&K Ptalomey 16 6X16 4X100 DIA 60 ET 50. Of course, the resistance of larger diameter wheels to bumps and holes is an order of magnitude higher - this is due to the fact that at the moment of passing over unevenness the radius of the wheel is simply prevents you from falling into the same bump that a smaller diameter wheel would fall into. In addition, thanks to the large radius, the vehicle's stability on the road increases. And, of course, do not forget about such an advantage as appearance - large wheels noticeably elevate your car in every sense.

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 Vesta SV 2022?
3 types of rims:
- 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.
