Niva dirt is not afraid. Popular domestic SUV, more well-known today as Lada 4 × 4, indeed, in its passability of off-road can yield the palm of the championship, is that a tank, with certain assumptions, of course. Mud tires on the Niva significantly raises the car's permeability over the swampy, clay and even stony terrain, which you can not say about the standard VAZ set of all-season tires. Applying to the issue of choosing rubber responsibly, you can turn the Niva in the real mud monster, able to give a serious order to a whole number of more expensive imported analogs of the car.
Select rubber: where to start?
Why change the rubber generally - the experienced driver VAZ 2121 does not arise such issues. To think about the replacement of the Rubber Nivovod begins not from a good life, nor in search of extreme or unusual sensations. The thing is that the all-season factory tires of 185/70 R16, being the result of compromises, unification and budgetary framework, is a very mediocre assistant and on the city highway, and when driving off off-road, and in winter.
Here you already have to choose rubber under myself, based on a number of basic parameters:
- in what conditions of work will be operated by future wheels, whether the car will dissect road asphalt fabric or more, yet, off-road;
- how far is the driver in the question of tuning his iron horse, will not get the head of the owner to send its new VAZ 21214 under the knife (some tire sizes require the expansion of the wheel arches or the bending of their sidebar outside, lifting suspension, as well as raising the body of the VAZ 21214 directly );
- based on the budget (the elevator set is about 3-4 thousand rubles, it is easily mounted even in the garage, it is quite an acceptable set of tires 3.5-4.5 thousand rubles, and the most "juicy" proposals reach Amounts of 8-12 thousand rubles);
- it is thorough to study the study of the proposals of various brands (it is for already proven trademarks and it is worth paying their attention as good tires - This is not just a beautiful pattern of the tread, but also the right chemical composition. And be sure that you can not get a "cat in the bag" you can only trust the manufacturer with a good reputation).
Do not do without basic knowledge on tire marking. Typically, three main parameters are specified in the tire name (for example, 185/70 R16). Where 185 is the width of the rubber in mm, 70 - the height of the profile, expressed in percentage of the width and R16 - the radial diameter of the disk in inches. There is also almost a dozen additional information, incl. As for the type of rubber (M + S - all-season, AT or MT, about these abbreviations in more detail below), the manufacturer, operational and specifications, braking coefficient (A - good, B is acceptable, C - so yourself) and much more.
Tires for lifting and without
The cornerstone of the stumbling block in the issue of selection of rubber is the need for additional modifications. There are a number of proposals that are perfectly installed on the standard car disc VAZ 21214 and do not require the expansion of wheeled arches, etc. Work. It is important to understand which rubber requires a mandatory lift, and what will be as native to your Niva without any particular problems.
If you are from those nivodes who do not need an excess headache, then almost a regular version of rubber type 205/70 R15 or 205/75 R15 is your choice. Having a greater width and height of the profile, they absolutely painlessly replace standard wheels, seriously adding passability and aesthetic relics to your iron horse. If you pick up rubber under regular wheel disksthen an option 215/65 R16 is perfectly suitable, a further increase in the tire profile, even by reducing the radial diameter, will certainly resolve rubber with deep turns about wheel arches protector (it is about 215/75 R15 and higher, such wheels without improvements are already better Do not put).
Several expands the range of choice, and also significantly increases the passability of your car, lift. Spartan set that allows you to raise the height of the suspension, costs about 4 thousand rubles and is easily mounted with your own hands right in the garage thanks detailed instructions. Increases clearance of VAZ 2121 and it becomes possible to put really serious off-road rubber (235/70 R16, 235/75 R15 or 240/80 R15).
Choose between MT and AT
A couple of words should also say about the correct marking of rubber for VAZ 21214. Initially, it goes several types:
- universal, AT (from English Word All Terrain. - any terrain), well suited for cases when the driver cuts more on an asphalt road and to a lesser extent by off-road;
- mud, MT (from the English word MUD terrain - mud terrain), this is already a heavy Russian off-road, swamps, sandy coating, and so on.
The problem of choice is that normal rubber for off-road on VAZ 2121 is good only on off-road. It is not particularly angry on the asphalt road, it is extremely quickly and uneconomically spent on the hard asphalt, has an enlarged braking path, poorly shows itself on turns and in control. But all this concerns only urban roads and highways, on mud and marsh terrain MT rubber just blooms, allowing you to confidently storm even the most unreal for ordinary AT wheels obstacles.
The main differences of mud rubber on the VAZ 2121:
Thanks for the subscription!
- increased cargo per capita;
- a special pattern of a tread, resembling more tractor, a singular edging of rubber;
- special rubber composition, providing increased softness (VAZ 21214 mud tires can also be operated with reduced pressure, easily carry rows on stones, towing on clay, sand, dirt and other);
- self-cleaning protection against pollution;
- increased fuel consumption.
In the class of rubber MUD terrain for VAZ 21214 (Lada 4 × 4) there are a number of special offers. For example, mud tires for Niva with the asscription Lite are the simplest, easiest to carry the forced ride on the asphalt, but have a not enough deep and complex pattern of the tread. Classic - for lovers rational choice and a whole kip specialized rubber: extreme - the most deep protector with a large and discharged pattern; A special form of drawing, as well as modern - well-proven itself in management on an asphalt road.
Couple of decent candidates
3 500-4 500 rubles. The minimum red price tag for which it is quite possible to find a number of worthy offers for VAZ 21214 The same "bear" of the I-569 series (good in off-road, but extremely susceptible to the summer asphalt and absolutely unmanaged on ice), Cordiant "Off Road" - Here, problems with asphalt road are less pronounced. All these are domestic manufacturers with good reputations).
8 000-12 000 rubles. For the American quality, about 8 thousand "wooden" will have to pay for American quality, the BF Goodrich brand, MUD terrain series type KM1 and KM2, has perfectly proven itself. The price, of course, bites, but the permeability really justifies the claimed price tag. Well, with the "Olymp" of the most expensive proposals, we are waving extreme rubber from SilverStone type MT-117 (it is only suitable for it exclusively to ride on off-road, on the asphalt, the "treasure" simply belessly worn out quickly).
Of course, Niva 2121 has already become a classic of the Russian car industry. But this car is still early to write off. Even in our time, this car remains an optimal option for price and high-quality combination for our roads, or rather off-road conditions. And the more optimally pick up on the Niva "Wise Napti", the better it will be "trapped" by our Russian off-road.
M / T Rubber
Classic mud tires, has a large pattern of the tread, side grounds, soft enough so that you can "be treated" on the off-road. Designed to use when 80 percent of the way you drive dirt and only 20 percent on the highway. When driving on asphalt is very quickly engaged.
Model budget class domestic production, the price of which starts from 3700 rubles. Installation does not require a subgon of the arches under the sizes of the tire. This "moon" is not inferior to many foreign counterparts, ideal for a novice SUV. Fully suitable for winter: very soft on the frost and loves snow. Bad "tolerates" ice and summer asphalt: on the other surface almost unmanaged. The dimension is one - 235/75 R15 (approximately 29 inches), so that there is either cutting the arches (but without elevator), or make the minimum elevator, but without interference in the body.
Cordiant Off Road.
A worthy version of the domestic "widows." Acceptable for use on asphalt and off-road. Spicy well on any swamp. It is an alternative to Goodrich at a price of about 4,000 rubles. Well tolerates asphalt coating. For such rubber, it makes sense to "lift" its NIVO. Thanks to which it is possible to "shut" a car already in size 225/75 R16. Only due to this, the lumen will increase almost 3 cm.
Hankook Dynapro MT RT03
Another successful "Midha". I won the confidence and respect among the admirers of the SUV. It will cost in dimension 235/75 R15 in 4500 rubles. This sizer does not take place without a mini-elevator at 5 cm.
The optimal option for those who do not often leave the kneading "shit". Little wear out on the asphalt, it is well cleaned on off-road. The clay is a little sailing, but not very. Equipped with holes for misses. Very soft, glorifying perfectly. In general, excellent tires, no worse than the Goodrich, but cheaper.
Kumho. Road Venture. MT KL71
Tire with pronounced tread aggressiveness. In the size for a small lift with spacers and springs from the chevik 235/75 R15 (28.9 inches via American) will cost about 5 800. If you do not want to stick, then you can only cut the arches))
More serious option. Suitable for professional pokatushek at obvious off-road. It has good self-cleaning even in clay "ships", the protector is very large with a decent distance between the checkers. You can safely burst to 1 atmosphere. Moderately soft. Well clings the sidewalls, there are side grounds. Not suitable for conventional movement: asphalt quickly "lies" protector. Ideal for moving 80 percent Account / 20 percent - solid coating.
BFGOODRICH MUD-TERRAIN T / A KM2
It is a standard of real mud rubber. It costs expensive, but it is "worth". For the native version of Niva, size 215/75 R15 is suitable (costs 5200). And for pumped Niv, the sizer 30 x 9. 50 R15 (240/80 R15) cost is 7100 rubles.
Rubber is a universal wise. It will be "at the time" both a professional and ordinary fisherman. Asphalt does not eat her. It is flattened to the limit (some blew up to 0. 5 atmosphere). Very durable. Damage to the upper layers does not affect overall integrity. It can "climb" only at the "plasticine" clay. Then the protector is completely clogged. Self-cleaning decently, for the protector is quite large. In general, Boris Fedorovich (as affectionately called BF jeeppers) - Rubber is worthy, but expensive. Therefore, you can always find an alternative to cheaper. But if you do not want to save, then Goodrich will become a good choice.
Federal Couragia M / T
- The most "wise" of all presented rubber, the protector is close to extreme. There are all - and lateral gentlemen and large self-cleaning checkers. Rubber is very soft, so perfectly sprinkles on liquid mud. For the Nivod, the dream will be the size of 205/80 / R16 worth 4,200 per cylinder. (28.9 inches), so you have to prepare it to be elevated or cut the arches. Very cool tires for dirt, the only negative - quickly turns on the asphalt, if you exploit the 60/40 city / dirt, then there will be enough thousand on 40. It will be not enough if we consider that the rubber is not cheap.
Extreme rubber
Most often used on large SUVs, because the dimensional number of most models begins from 29-31 inches. Fans of the nibings also put themselves 31 "Tires, seriously before this converting a car. Extreme tires have a very large pattern of tread, powerful primer to travel from the rut, very soft and absolutely not designed to drive along the track.
Simex Extreme / Jungle Trekker
Under such an SUV, it is better to "pump" as it should be - here and the elevator and cutting the arches, replacement of steam and multiple refinement of the car, in any way. In the dimension of 32 x 9. 5 R15 will cost 12 thousand expensive, however, for those who decide on such rubber, these are trifles, their life is an Offer.
Professional model of sports off-road "slippers". Most of all loves clay races. It has a high degree of self-cleaning of the tread. It has a directed off-road pattern.
Suitable for non-escape ride on the usual road. To increase the chain at the expense of the sidewall, the air is blending to the atmosphere. Perhaps the most famous extreme rubber that is suitable for all SUVs. Most often put, of course, on the UAZ, but there is nothing impossible for the nivodes. It looks Nivko on such wheels really threatening.
Forward Safari 500
The domestic analogue of the previous Symx is only 2.5 times cheaper.
Under it will have to adhesive in any case. Minimum size under the Niva 235/75R15 worth 4900 rubles. Requires the installation of spacers. Either up to 29 "can be limited to a sharp archer, for not everyone loves and consider it right to make an elevator. Cutting arches - less evil so to speak.
Rubber oak. Many prefer her Simex. Heavy, well self-cleaning. Poorly balanced and too noisy on asphalt. But on any off-road rowing perfectly. Does not like gauge. It is well holding a course on the usual road and becomes slow. It can be concluded - if you want to geekly, but there is no money 10k per cylinder extreme rubber, then take the sackar - a completely option, all the volume of any m / t of rubber.
Silverstone MT-117 Xtreme
In dimension 31 x 10. 5 R16 costs 11,500 rubles. For Niva, you need an elevator and cutting arches.
Suitable for any off-road. Well keeps the course, not closed on clay. It has durable sidewall with a large pattern. Cord in six rows. And of course, very protruding lateral primers allow you to leave the rut. In the drawing of the tread, it can be seen that it is very similar to Simax (who is his own progenitor). Practically unsuitable for movement on the highway. Poorly balanced. On the usual road buzzes and is very wearing. Pure mud extreme rubber, very soft and strong toothy.
Not so long ago, my friend bought a used Niva, the little of money remained and since the tires there was a complete crap (some kind of highway kama), then a friend asked me - and whether there is a normal tire on the Niva in the amount of 16 ". For the typewriter of those stood regular Niva discs on 16 ", and buy an additional set of disks was obligated. In general, the essence of the question is clear - to choose a normal mud rubber On the Niva in the 16th radius.
I climbed to dig, no, I certainly knew that the choice was almost no choice, but at least something should be? However, as it turned out - nothing. Rather, there is, but Mizier. Found only a few decent samples. Let's look in size:
The optimal size on the Niva, acceptable clearance, the car on the mud wheels of this size well reveals its off-road abilities. I would even say - it's stupid to put the wheels on the nivko less than these. The meaning then to buy a nivku generally?
Cordiant Offroad
The classic of the genre, is available in dimension 215/65 / R16, on the Niva - the foe. Most nivodes immediately put cords and do not soar. Cancelled rowing on dirt, but the tires are heavy and on the highway on them, like on wooden bagels. It seems to me - optimal option For summer use on Niva in this size. Tires are declared as all-season, but begging you - you should not ride them in winter and even late in the fall, when freezing will begin.
Contyre Expedition
Also available in Nivovsky size 215/65/16, stand in the same way as cords, however, there are more plates here - soft tires, comfortable, can be ride even in winter. The dirt is also performed perfectly (the tread pattern is one to one with cords). Well, the most important plus - the tires are lighter than cords, and therefore on the Niva, if you cut the arches, you can put a super cool size 235/75 / R15, but here you will need to buy a set of disks on 15 ". We have the task - to pick up a wheel of 16 diameter.
Well, probably everything, comrades)) more in the amount of 215/65/16 did not find anything worthy. I had to play with a width and profile and it turned out to find some more normal Niva options.
Tire is fit, a bigger profile. For SUVs in general - the more profile - the better. The increase in clearance compared to the 215th - only 0.3 cm. In fact, the same thing.
By the number of tires installed on the Niva in this size leads to Kama Flame (in the photo). There are no questions here - many consider it optimal, but the tread pattern is not MT, but only AT and on such "sneakers" can be riding only by weak off-road. Rubber declared as winter and I saw in the winter a lot of effect on such rubber, but here you also need to have a sober head and ride neatly in winter, the driver must have some skills to ride such a rubber in winter.
An even tight bus with an even higher profile. The increase in the cliens compared to the 215th decent - 1.6 cm. It is likely that there will be a chain on the atoms, so the minimum elevator or cutting the arches is minimized. Such tires will be canceled to dig dirt to get to a solid. However, such "sneakers" are better breaking and can serve a bear service - we will plant a car on bridges. In this size, just super - our Kirov tires K-139. Photo:
Tires are fit, but not critical. Aggressive protector that can also be cut down (many do it in order to further increase the permeability of the Nivka).
205/80 / R16 - almost 29 "
Next - we will take the size even more, this is already prepared by the NIV, on which the arches are cut, or an elevator is made. In. This is 28.9 ", almost 29." These sizes already have decent mud options. The increase in the clearance will be real - plus 2.4 cm, the wheel diameter compared to the standard 215/65/16 will be more practically 5 cm:
Federal Kuraga
Very angry, aggressive sneakers with excellent permeability. But notable, for many newcomers, it will become a stumbling block. Yes, and the car will still have to do. Tires are very soft and quickly appear on asphalt. But on the off-road - just super. In this rubber, I do not remember in some year the team on Uaz won a trophy competition. Already one says that the dirt is a smoking room - a great choice. It was most likely to find in this amount of the feds)) at least did not see any novel on such rubber))
Kumho Road Venture MT KL71
Also available in 29 "size and for disks on 16". Favorite sneakers of Drivers of Niva Chevrolet, and of course the nivodes. The toothy protector, excellent self-cleaning, is sprinkling well on the skinny. However, most often put such sneakers on the disks 15 ", therefore, in the 16th size it will be difficult to find. Well, the price tag here is decent, and even taking into account the dollar's course at all.
It concerns the summer and all-season rubber. Very little choice, and it is practically no in size 205/70 / R16 and 215/65 / R16, all that is - I listed above. Good, at least winter rubber Decently in such sizes. However, with summer - just trouble.
The last sizes in the review are very unpopular, so you will probably not find mud tires in these sizes. So you have two options - see below:
In general, the conclusions were made and I advised my friend if he wants to ride in the summer at the Niva in those places for which she was intended - to buy discs on 15 ", here the choice of excellent mud rubber is simply huge. Well, or ride on Cordam or Konder Expedition in the 16th size. I hope our findings will be useful to you and you will make the right choice.
All famous car VAZ-2121 "Niva" managed to establish itself as one of the most popular SUVs, characterized by an excellent combination of price / quality and high indicators of roadlessness in off-road conditions.
And in front of the owners of the Niva often there are difficulties in the plan for the selection of the appropriate rubber, because the car is bought mainly for the movement of difficult places, and all-season tires, installed by the manufacturer, is not at all suitable for such harsh conditions.
Niva and Dirt - Romance
It is very important to approach the choice of rubber with caution, because not every model can be installed on the car without appropriate improvements and lifts, so do not do without tire marking knowledge and what sizes can be installed, both under the elevator and without. Start with the fact that stable rubber size 175/80 R16 and 185/75 R16And most of the owners of the VAZ-2121 are moving from 16 disks on the 15th, because there is a lot of choice, especially models with an aggressive tread for driving in off-road conditions.
Several references on the topic for review:
Selection of rubber under standard wheels
If you are from those who do not need an extra headache, in terms of expensive alteration of the car, the use of rubber under standard sizes is what you need. The maximum tire dimension that will be on the car without problems is 215/65 R16. But with a further increase in the profile, the rubber will be erected on the wheeled arches with steep turns. In this case, even a decrease in the radial diameter will not help.
Summer tires
