Among the innovations in the test, winter tires with an increased number of spikes Continental IceContAct 2 (190 spikes), Hankook i * Pike RS (170) and a new version GOODEAR ULTRAGRIP ICARCTIC tires with a reduced number of spikes (100 spikes). Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8, Nokian Nordman 5, Pirelli Ice Zero, Cordiant Snow Cross., Dunlop Ice Touch and Maxxis Arctictrekker NP3 also have a large number of spikes. We remind you that in European countries from July 1, 2013 there is a restriction on the number of spikes - 50 to 1 trap meter tire tread. From January 1, 2016, such a restriction will appear in Russia, but with a limit of 60 spikes by 1 traffic point meter. It is not difficult to calculate that for tires with a size 205/55 R16, the limit will be about 100 spikes. What then to do with tires, the number of spikes in which more? Do not panic, everything is legal! For this, companies that want to establish too much spikes on their tires must be proved that it will not increase the depreciation of the roadway. To achieve this manufacturers install lightweight spikes, use a special miscord system, etc.
Test
Movement by car winter Road It requires a driver of greater concentration of attention, experience and knowledge, since it includes all kinds of weather conditions: the sun, rain, snow and ice. Thanks modern technologies At the winter landfill, it was possible to create the weather conditions necessary for the test. The special system of heating was pulled by the ice before boxing and entrance to the frozen lake, and the special "vacuum cleaner" was raking, let's notify and blown off the snow from the track. The weather also helped - snowfall began on the day before the test.
To measure the characteristics when driving around the wet road, it was decided to return to Sweden in April, but already on another polygon - to the city of Gislaved. There, not far from the buildings of the former plant of the same name, a polygon with several tracks is functioning, one of which is equipped with the necessary testing system of irrigation.
results
Winners of the dough on the ice track were studded and friction tires nokian. And the new season of Continental IceContAct 2. In general, in this test - victory for studded tires. On the ice circle, the situation is somewhat different - this is due to other characteristics of the ice surface. Best Steel Continental Icecontact 2, Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 and Goodyear Ultragrip Ice Arctic.
On the snow-covered track, GOODYEAR UltraGrip Ice Arctic, Cordiant Snow Cross and Pirelli Ice Zero. They have a shorter braking path and a smaller distance for overclocking along loose and rolled snow. The best in the dough on the passage of the winding track - Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 and Cordiant Snow Cross.
On the wet road most effective turned out to be studded gislaved tires Nord * Frost 100, Nokian Nordman 5 and Pirelli Ice Zero, and on dry - frictional Continental ContivikingContact 6 and Goodyear UltraGrip Ice 2. Most silent tires Participants - Goodyear UltraGrip Ice 2, Continental ContivikingContact 6 and Cordiant Winter Drive.
The results of each test were summarized in the table. The seized tires were marked with yellow, and friction-green.

RESULTS
All obtained indicators were reduced to a common table.
Based on the results of all tests in the top three, studded tires Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8, Continental IceContAct 2 and Goodyear Ultragrip Ice Arctic. Goodyear UltraGrip Ice 2 and Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 are the best friction tires.
Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8.
The minimum brake path and overclocking on ice, works well on the rolled snow
Enlarged brake path on dry road, acoustic effect, high price
Continental Icecontact 2.
Clutch and handling on ice and snow, smoothness
Noise high price
Goodyear Ultragrip Ice Arctic
Clutch on snow-covered, iced and wet road, minimal brake path
Controllability
Goodyear UltraGrip Ice 2
Low level noise, excellent behavior on asphalt and snow
Clutch on garbage
Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2.
Best clutch on ice among friction tires, handling on the snowy track
Clutch on a wet road, on a rolled and loose snow.
The task was initially reduced to prepare a tire with a landing diameter of 17 and 18 inches for a premium segment. However, such products need not just good, but very good. Cordiant Snow Cross Tire Tread Figure Preserved the same, but re-developed a mixture. Its chemical composition allowed us to provide a wide temperature range of performance: + 10 ... -53 ° C. Prior to modernization, the lower limit was -45 ° C.
For improvement coupling properties Skike-Cor spike-Cor spike-Cor spikes applied on ice. In the aluminum building of the new "Cunt", a carbide octaigrated insert from tungsten carbide was introduced. The former spikes were dressed in a stainless steel housing, their carbide insert did not have a cut.
A dozen of such "COGOTKS" is constantly in the spnow of contact. According to the Cordian, the brake path during a slowdown from 30 to 5 km / h on modernized tires in comparison with the previous ones decreased by 8%, and acceleration from 5 to 30 km / h became faster by 3.7%.
Modernization touched not only expensive 17- and 18-inch models, but also more affordable 13-16-inch.
On the snow-covered airfield of the Aerodrome sortsaws of Shinniki gathered rear-wheel drive cars of premium brands. The Test Program of the Modernized Model Cordiant Snow Cross included an estimate of the longitudinal clutch: after intensive overclocking up to 60 km / h - sharp braking up to a complete stop, first with the ESP turned on, and then C turned off. Clearly operating electronics leads a car without driving and slipping. But without electronic stabilization I confidently controlled the behavior of the "five" BMW in the snow.
The transverse clutch tried to evaluate the E-class Mercedes driving, performing the "elk" test. With no cone, when performing maneuvers, I did not hit, but I don't take anything about the benefits of new tires without comparison with the previous ones.
In a tire test, conducted by the expert group "Driving" (VD, 2016, No. 9), the updated "riding" Cordiant Snow Cross showed well. In 15-inch dimension, they were ahead of Michelin and Dunlop famous rivals. And the price of the third is lower: depending on the Snow Cross tire size sizer costs from 2000 to 4000 rubles.
The current crisis makes you save on all, including tires. After all, the set of even budget tires flies into a penny. Therefore, many motorists when choosing tires first look at the price, and only then study their characteristics and get acquainted with test results. We also decided to talk about the ranking of the experienced us winter tires, pushing out first of all of their price. The most expensive on our list is "Nokyan-Hakkapelitis 8" with mid-price In online stores 3,700 rubles per piece. It is not suiced, of course, but in our ranking she ahead of the rest - 944 points. "Hakki" first places in almost every exercise. Moreover, as we have time to notice, the high characteristics remain such and after a rather long run.
Slightly cheaper - at a price of 3500 rubles per piece - you can buy Tires "Continental-Contiaiskontact". The manufacturer has been hinting for a couple of years to replace this model as follows, but in no hurry to move from words to business. And if necessary? The second place, scored 915 points and very good results say unambiguously: the potential of the "Contiaiskontact" is still great, this model is early to write off with accounts.
Significantly cheaper German "Gislaved-Nord Frost 100" and Japanese Bridgestone-Blizzard Spike-01 - 2700 rubles per tire. What kind of choose them? To answer, you have to learn the table with the results. According to the results of measurements, these tires are comparable, the difference is only in the subjective assessment of experts. However, "Gislaveda" received 884 points and fourth place, and Bridgestone - 859 points and only the sixth line of the rating.
For 2400 rubles you can buy the fifth "Nordman" (the younger brother "Nokian"). Characteristics are no worse than more expensive "Bridgestone" and "Gislavda". The proposal is tempting that in our table of ranks, this tire scored 886 points, which allowed her to take the honorable third place and climb the podium.
Japanese "Toyo-Owner G3-Ice" is cheaper than "Nordman" only 100 rubles. In the protocol at Toyo, 853 points and the eighth final place. If not so significant, if you are ready to put up with insufficient comfort and mediocre manageability, then the choice of "G3-Ice" is justified.
You can save even more if preferring the "Ice Formula" tire (this is a new Pirelli brand). About 2000 rubles per piece, 863 points and fifth place in the ranking - a good combination. The price of savings is slightly "unlable" characteristics in the snow and insufficient training stability on the asphalt. With Pareley Formula Ice compete Cordiant Snow Cross"- 1950 rubles for a tire. The result is 856 points and seventh place. Translated from the number of numbers, this means that on the asphalt at a speed of 60-80 km / h will have to keep the distance enlarged on the body, due to the lowest standards of the brake properties. "Snow Cross" does not have better performance indicators, stability and comfort. But the car on these tires is quite confident on the ice and in the snow.
Finally, for 1700 rely sell "Amtel-Nordmaster ST." In two S. excess times Cheaper leaders! And - modest 829 points and ninth place in our list. If you are a hot pilot, then in front of the choice of "amtel" we advise you to carefully examine the test results and then go to the store. Errors in the control of the machine on tires can be fraught. Nordmaster is suitable for unhurried and experienced drivers.

In this weather, as in the poem "Twelve" Alexander Bloka, only studded tires will help. To facilitate the buyer the choice, the expert group of SP tested 12 sets of relatively inexpensive 15-inch "riding".
In the courtyard crisis, prices are growing, the revenues for them are not in a hurry - and people are increasingly looking at the machines available. And most inexpensive foreign cars and domestic cars cravy in the tires of dimension 195/65 R15.
Eight tires from the prototed expert group of the journal "driving" are placed in a price plug from two to three thousand rubles per piece. The lower threshold was asked by IceLink by the Chinese company Triangle, gradually gaining popularity in Russia, and updated Cordiant Snow Cross. The top plank in the budget company will prophete modern tires Hankook Winter I * Pike RS + with increased to one hundred seventy number of spikes and novelty Dunlop - model SP Winter Ice. 02. In the middle fit new model Matador Sibir Ice 2 and has already gained popularity tires Pirelli. Formula Ice, Toyo Observe G3-Ice and Nordman 5.
Experts also took four very successful models in Russia among the strongest, but expensive - this is goodyear UltraGrip Ice Arctic, Michelin X-Ice North 3, Continental ContiiceCecontact 2 and Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8. By the way, half of the tested tires are made in Russia, and localization Allows you to keep reasonable prices.

It's time to north
Last fall, the experts of the journal "Driving" with sadness recalled rainy January and February 2015, when the test group was rumped in the vicinity of the AvtoVAZ landfill in search of a snowy platform, which was not completely flushed with rain. Then it was decided the next time to try to escape from the warm winter, which became a frequent guest in the middle lane of Russia, to the North of Finland. Nokian contributed to the "white hell" test "White" tests on Lake Tammyarvi.
In late February, in Lapland were delivered in advance rolled tires and in the first half of March car Skoda. Octavia held the main part of winter tests - on the snow and ice. Even in the first month of spring, a real winter reigned for the polar circle - unlike the Volga region, where it turned out to be unusually warm and almost mad. In general, experts did the right thing that went north. And not only because of the weather. Still, the conditions of a specialized tire polygon not only simplify work, but also allow additional tests and get more information to evaluate each model.
In the "White Adu" at the air temperature from -20 to -2 ºС, all the snow and ice exercises of the journal "driving" were performed. Unfortunately, the experts had to abandon the rearrangement, since the dense, risen snow was not found. And a deep-knife is quickly formed on soft, the sides of which serve as a kind of side emphasis and do not allow correctly evaluating the transverse clutch of tires on the snow. But the estimate of the manageability was carried out on two special tracks - snow and ice.
Snow-ice procedures
Experts start with methodical measurements, repeating races for each tire set of six - eight times, and if the results are jumping, then ten. After every two or three sets, they check the condition of the coating using basic tires and, taking into account the data obtained, recalculate the results.
On a large horizontal plateau, the expert group is engaged in overclocking and braking in the snow. The anti-duct and anti-locking system is jealously monitor that the wheels are not slipped when accelerated and not blocked when braking. The acceleration time is fixed from 0 to 40 km / h. From scratch - because some tires "hang" when starting from the place, and 40 km / h - because this speed can be gained on the first gear, eliminating the error in measurements due to switching to the second.
Braking with 40 km / h, but already up to 5 km / h, and not until the complete stop. The fact is that at a very low speed ABS, sometimes allows locking wheels, lengthening the braking path and bringing a swap in the measurement results. After evaluating several sets, the surface of the Richtuette Plateau is pleasing, which Finns are broken back "Tampa-A-Ari".
Gradually define the first leaders - Cordiant, Formula and Nokian. Last result - At Toyo. As for braking, Michelin turned out to be the best, and Chinese Triangle got into the outsiders.

For measurements on the ice, the expert group moves to a special track covered with a huge long awning, which hides ice from snow and bright sun, - the results are more stable than in the open space. In Togliatti, even with favorable weather, it would have to carry a lot longer. The same procedures are the same as in the snow, only the final speed of overclocking and initial braking is only 30 km / h. And the acceleration time is measured not from the moment of the troggy, but from the speed of 5 km / h. The fact is that the awning with the snow "closes" the sky on it does not allow the VBOX equipment to contact GPS satellites. Therefore, during overclocking, the dutron measuring device with an optical sensor was used on ice, which allows errors at pedestrian speeds.
With each measurement, the test slightly shifts the car to the side, on clean ice. When the roller is completely covered with shallow ice crumb, carved spikes, Multicar is selected in the arena and the ice sweeps. Frams of ice and snow that fell under the tires work like balls in bearings: reduce friction, increasing the acceleration time and braking path.
The best accelerated ice speakers were provided by the Nokian bus. Continental took second place, and behind the rest - Matador. In braking, the same alignment of leaders and outsiders has been preserved.
Experts are completed by determining the time of the ice circle, winding up 10-12 "revolutions" on each tire set. Conti and Dunlop are broken forward.
Expert work
The behavior of the car is estimated when driving along a snowy road at high speed. To do this, the playground is a width of about fifteen meters and a length of at least five hundred. Such an elongated field with soft snowdrifts around the perimeter allows you to safely check the clarinement of rectilinear movement at a speed of up to 90-100 km / h, as well as imitate an obstacle trail and a soft rebuilding from one band to another.
On tires Cordiant, Goodyear and Nokian, test Skoda feels more confident than others. Matador liked the least experts: wide and non-informative "zero", delays in the steering wheel reactions and significant beam angles when adjusting the course. The Chinese tires Triangle surprised with its clarity. True, the assessment was slightly reduced due to the low informativeness of the steering wheel in the zero zone.
Almost not far from this long plateau, the Finns laid a snowy track of a closed configuration with turns of different curvatures, in small lifts and descents - a wonderful imitation of Russian roads.
Here Skoda is stable controlled on tires Cordiant, Hankook, Nokian and Toyo - experts conquered clear reactions and the clear behavior of the car even in slipping. In the lagging behind, Triangle was: at the Skoda, the hoop into these tires, the steering wheel becomes a little-informative, it is necessary to twist it on big angles, the car goes too squeezed, with long slippers - from demolition at the entrance to the turn before driving on the arc.
On the ice of Lake Tammyarvi, a track was prepared to assess manageability at a very slippery coating. Successful track combining high-speed and slow twists with short and long straight straight.
In the middle of the closed route - the snow is a depth of a little more ground lumen. Just what is needed to check the passability. Here, experts were concentrated on how simple and clear the car rows, moving and maneuver in deep snow. And how confidently chooses back in its own trails, if suddenly stuck.
With the "Rulezhka" on the ice, the Cordiant, Hankook, Nokian tires were bypassed (this triple and in controllability in the snow was the most successful) and Nordman due to clear reactions and understandable, predicted behavior. And the smallest assessment was "riding" GoodYear due to low steering informativeness, an unexpectedly sharp breakdown to the skid and long clutch recovery after the start of slip.
But in the passability Tires Goodyear was not equal! Skoda on them made his way through the snowdrifts as a bulldozer, raking the front bumper snow. And worse than others, the triangle tires are launched with snowdrifts - the car crawls in deep snow with difficulty, very uncertain and reluctantly. On these tires, it is unlikely to get out of the parking lot on the cleaning road.
Adventures with spikes
After snow-ice tests, spikes were recalculated. Champions on the reliability of fixing "carnations" became ContiCecontact 2 and Formula ICE - during tests they did not lose any spikes! Good results showed Michelin X-Ice North 3 tires, Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 and Nordman 5: Every four wheels left only two spikes. Goodyear Ultragrip Ice Arctic, Matador Sibir Ice 2 and Triangle Icelink missed three or four "carnations". Weaker performed toyo tires OBSERVE G3-ICE: Losses made up seven spikes per set. In the troika lagging - upgraded Cordiant Snow Cross (lost ten spikes from the kit), Dunlop Sp Winter Ice 02 (thirteen) and Hankook Winter I * Pike RS + (fifteen).
And now the most interesting. The largest number of spikes is almost all tires lost the left front wheel. What is the front is logical. The front will be touched with a troggy and acceleration, they account for the main load when braking. But why left? Former, experts did not observe this ... The fact is that the ice circle on this polygon is significantly more than our, in Sosnovka, therefore the speed is about twice. And since the car goes faster, the inner wheel - and the left, as they drove against the clockwise, - it fades harder and spreads more.
The spikes fly out more than the bounce, and when the wheel is unloading. On the loaded wheel, rubber is more squeezed with vertical power, it hurts the spikes and is better to hold them. It means that in the daily use of the spikes are more often flying out during acceleration, and not when braking. If you want to save them, limit the slip of the wheels, accelerating.
On asphalt
Exercises on the "black" roads were held at the junction of April and May, when the asphalt is already dropped, the wind verse, the air temperature was from 4 to 7 ºС. This is just a temperature line for seasonal shift tires How will "rose" in these conditions behave?
First exercise - measurement of fuel consumption. On the warm circle, the course stability on asphalt and comfort - noise and smoothness were evaluated before measurements. At the end of the measurements, a "run" on roads with different coating was made to fully appreciate the level of comfort.
The most economical on urban and country speeds were Formula, Nokian and Nordman tires. Most high flow Gave Cordiant. Although the difference, put the hand on the heart, meager: 200 ml of gasoline per 100 km.
At a speed of 110-130 km / h Skoda Octavia, the course holds the course and makes soft rebuildings, being a hoop in the Michelin tires. And most of all strains the driver Triangle: smeared, very wide "zero" and lack of informativeness. To adjust the direction of movement, the ram has to turn to large corners.
In terms of noise, there is no substantial difference between the tires sprinkling on the asphalt spikes, no. As for the smoothness of the course, the Continental, Hankook and Michelin tires are distinguished.
Tests with estimating brake properties on wet and dry asphalt are completed. Experts are interested in the braking path from speeds 60 and 80 km / h to a speed of 5 km / h (to cut off the possible effect of ABS). On the wet asphalt, the Continental tires are best working, and the largest distance required tires dunlop. and Cordiant. On a dry coverage, the shortest braking path is the Triangle tire, and in the outsider - Cordiant.

Summary
With the result of 929 points won the tires Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 russian production. Second place - CONCIICECONTACT 2 tires (916 points). The lack of those and others by and large one is a high price. In third place, the short-sized six points to the cherished mark "900" (tires that deserved 900 points, experts of the journal "driving" are considered excellent) is located Goodyear Ultragrip Ice Arctic.
Those who are not ready to upload more than 12 thousand rubles for a set of four tires, they were tested advised to look at the Hankook Winter I * Pike RS + and Nordman 5 models - this is very good tires, they did not fail by one of the parameters.
The following five contestants who scored from 850 to 870 points and who took place in our table about the ranks of the place from the sixth to the tenth are also good, but each has its own minuses. Of these, the most profitable purchase experts consider Cordiant Snow Cross tires: a modest price is combined with quite high characteristics. However, these tires are not very suitable for urban conditions with pure asphalt roads.
Price tire michelin. X-Ice North 3 can be recognized slightly overpriced, not quite appropriate level of indicators. Matador Sibir Ice 2 and Triangle IceLink in its characteristics - frankly budget products, but with a neat ride winter you can survive ..

Test material prepared using a publication article
In the past 3 years, the tires of the Concern Cordiant are really pleasing, the quality is growing, and with him the army of satisfied fans of inexpensive high-quality tires is growing. In today's review we will look at the new year of 2013, which for 2 years in trend has been collecting a huge amount positive feedback. Meet the studded tire Cordiant Snow Cross.
All as one users, seeing the drawing of the tread, begin to scream - this is a clone of Hakki 7, do not think that they buy a Cordiant and get the same hachak, the difference is huge and blah blah.
Of course, to compare the Finnish tire and our difference in price by 3 times - the occupation is incorrect. Who has money - he takes Hakku without thinking and not soared. Who has no money - they have to look for reviews in the internet, to shove the mountains of information, search for tests, video and other info. Yes, even when testing tires, they take them from one "weight" category - premium, comfort, budget. And compare the budget bay bus tires with class comfort is simply meaningless. In most tests, the dear tire will be ahead, but much? And is it important when daily exploitation? In general, we will talk better about Snow Cross - according to the results of tests and numerous reviews - it really is worth paying attention to it. Photo:
The previous model Snow Max also showed excellent results, people are satisfied as an elephant. And Snow Cross is the continuation of Max technologies, the cross is even better, adapting, technologically, if you want. Technology production tires do not stand still and top Tires 2005 will now show very low results. That is why the people study the innovations of the market, because they will certainly be better than previous ones. Progress Do not stop.
Cordiant Snow Cross - studded rubber, the composition of the rubber mix is \u200b\u200bstill improved, there is even more silica, and therefore the tire even in hard frosts (-30) remains soft, so that the tire after a long night frost parking will not be square, but will remain round)) well And the winter tire should always be soft - this is a priori!
The pattern of the tread is similar to Hakku-7, but purely externally, there are consistency of considerable differences. Nevertheless, according to the reviews of the people (for 2 years there is a lot of accumulated), the tire is canceled digging deep snow, loose snow is also excellent. Snow porridge - wonderful, water and impregnated with moisture snow well is discharged from the contact spot. Photo by Snow Cross:
But the photo of Hakki 7 for comparison, there is a difference and she is noticeable, so it's not necessary to la-la, that the protector is the same (the hackki spits go almost non-stop across the tire, the Cordian is noticeably less common):
Thorning cross - again new technology, shape of the tire and its inside, landing. As a reserved - the loss of spikes is minimal, it is, but compared to competitors the Cordian is really better. Who did the competitors lose? Such a popular Nokian Nordman 4, which everyone is good, but the spikes holds not as cool, as we would like it. Of course, no one has canceled the correctness of the run, but still according to the reviews of the people it can be seen that Snow the crossing the spikes are really better. And if you compare with Yokohama Ig35 - here you yourself know, Iocca on the ice is perfect only the first season, on the second - it is already without spikes))
By the way, we will recommend another chic option, but already a velcro tire -, the highest quality, reviews in the overwhelming majority are excellent. Well, the chic price. If the city is clean and the temperature allows you to take it.
On Ice, Snow Cross shows excellent results for the budget tire (and the difference between the tires of another price category is minimal). It is not always possible to put a car into a trash in the trash, but if you go with your head on the winter road, then the holder on the ice will be 5 points.
Video - Test for loose snow
In the snow - this tire is simply created for it. Rocked snow - 6 of 5 points, loose, wet, deep - perfect. Snow is empty, side hooks for "digging" and to derive water wide and deep.
What are there any minuses? We read in reviews - on bare asphalt with +5 badly slow down. Hehe, the same spikes and a priori they should slow down. Hakka 7 will also brake badly, but probably a little better than a snow cross))
What else from minuses is bad balancing. This is not a fact, it all depends on the tire, what will you get. Most completely balanced normally, but there are exceptions. So, the quality of manufacture does not hold at the level and it is bad. On the other hand, buy tires immediately with the tire installation and if the dofiga weights - ask the other bus, replace without problems.
In general, the rubber boldly set 4.5 points, in budget class It is real one of the best. Not long ago, yesterday, a chevik was seen on this rubber, came up, talked - the owner is terribly satisfied, he drives a lot in the snow and loves to park in a snowdrift when there is no place in the parking lot. With this rubber, he has no problems at all. All types of winter road canvases are ideal except naked asphalt - here a little worse. We definitely recommend to buy, excellent inexpensive spindlers.
