This winter, in many cities of our country, very warm December turned out. In this regard, many car owners had quite reasonable suspicions of whether they hastened to “retrail” their iron friend into winter tires? Especially these doubts affected those who set themselves classic winter “spikes”.
Let’s try to figure out whether such a type of winter tires for a car, like Velcro, can cope with the winter road as successfully as the more familiar to Russian drivers? The answer to this question is not at all as clear as it might seem from the outside. It is enough to mention the fact that many experts with impressive experience still cannot confidently choose this or that type of rubber.
Even giants such as Moto Valve cannot give an unambiguous answer to this relevant and pressing question for many, on which not only the comfort and convenience of driving, but also safety, but often the life of road users depend.
The spikes provide driving along ice -covered and snow, thanks to their inherent property, crash into ice and destroy it, thereby creating the surface for adhesion. From this statement, we can conclude that during winter trips, whether it is planned to go out of town or exclusively a trip to the store, spikes are simply indispensable. Many drivers believe that the passing part is cleaned regularly, so the situations when ice meets on top of the asphalt, is simply impossible, but this is mistaken.
Moreover, even on the bare asphalt, rubber with thorns Moto Valve is able to slow down much better than rubber with Velcro, which is explained by its softness and ability to instantly clutch.
In addition, it is almost impossible to achieve pure asphalt in winter on the roads, it is covered by if not an impressive layer of ice, then snow and ice fragments. If a situation arises when a trip is needed in extracurricular time, when the special equipment has not yet managed to clean the roads and lead them to the usual appearance, the driver who counts on the selection of winter rubber for Velcro can be seriously mistaken, putting the safety of people.
