Every car owner knows that the dynamics of a car depends on the quality of the tires. So, the dynamics of summer and winter tires will be different. This is due to the fact that studded rubber is designed for driving on slippery roads - it prevents wheel slip and provides more traction. If this is your first time sitting on the wheel after installing studded tires, try to drive as carefully as possible, and be sure to familiarize yourself with the rules for running winter tires.
It is necessary
- - Car;
- - New studded tires;
- - Place for running-in (regular carriageway or country road).
Instructions
Step 1
Install studded tires on all four wheels of the vehicle. This is necessary in order for the "behavior" of the wheels to be exactly the same. Remember that fitting studded tires to one axle of the vehicle is a significant risk. On a slippery road, your vehicle can behave completely unpredictable. A dangerous situation can arise even if you have a four-wheel drive vehicle.
Step 2
Start breaking in the wheels at a speed of 60-70 km / h. Important: your car must travel at least five hundred kilometers at this speed. Do not overclock, save new tires, your own money and nerves. Only after covering a distance of 500 km can you be sure that the spikes are in place and are completely ready for work.
Step 3
Monitor tire pressure changes very carefully. It should be borne in mind: if you ride on flat tires with spikes, then, most likely, the spikes on the rubber will wear out very quickly or even fall out.
Step 4
If you need to inflate spiked tires, perform the procedure only in a special room. When buying spiked tires, check with the seller how best to break in. Check the tire pressure at least once a month. Agree, it's better to play it safe than to spend money on the purchase of a set of studded tires soon.
Step 5
When rolling in a new studded rubber, avoid dynamic starts and hard braking. Remember that during the break-in period, you must move from a place and brake smoothly - this is required, first of all, for your safety, but also for the studded tires to last a long time.
