Which winter wheels are best for Largus Cross?


Hello everybody! Summer has flown by as always, and winter has arrived! And as usual, I found myself in a dead end, there was no money, but I needed winter tires, how many times did I catch myself saying to put money aside in advance, it was useless. For lack of a big budget, I decided to go to Lenta, see what was there cheaper, and I looked at Chinese tires, the name is Sailong or something, size 205/55/16, studded at a price of 11,200 rubles. A set, I just couldn’t find it cheaper anywhere, so I decided to take it. I changed my wheels to the price of 1400 rubles, remove the summer ones, put on the winter ones and balance them. The impressions are positive, on dry asphalt it is of course noisy, but on ice and snow it goes confidently and does not make noise. So far I am happy with the purchase.

Today I saw that after tire fitting, the casting cap that covers the rusty hole between the studs has disappeared somewhere, either they didn’t tap it well on the rim, or it just fell off on the road.

It’s not like he’s a gourmet, but it’s really not beautiful, on a washed white car there’s a rusty hole, like on an old Kaldino.

Well, I think (I still didn’t know VAZ’s secret), I’ll ask OD again. Our OD is small. “Oh, these are accessories, we don’t order them at all. Out of such sadness, I called Vladik, where I got it - they quoted 450 rubles for 1 piece (red cap price 30 rubles) and something to decide about the delivery.

Yesterday I changed to winter tires, it’s already minus 3 this morning, it’s been icy somewhere since morning, and I don’t like to wait until it melts, as half of the citizens usually do.

I chose the rubber specifically, hard, heavy, with an oak tread and cord. I know many people write on the drome that for the winter you need to take high-quality tires and also soft ones. I have always held the opposite thought: in winter, standing on the side of the road at minus 28 and changing a tire is not something I want to do. Moderately hard oak wheels, well inflated - change the speed, it becomes more solid on the gurneys, 30% of holes, joints, etc. disappear. Of course, on the highway such tires are duller, noisier, and kerosene consumption is slightly higher, but choose, either smart in the city, off-road, or on the highway in winter.

Winter tires for Largus: tips

The Lada Largus Cross is a car built on the basis of the Dacia Logan and rebuilt for the needs of the domestic market. It is a joint project between the two and Avtovaz to expand the presence of both brands on the Russian market. Produced since 2012. Over the entire period of production, it has gained quite a large number of fans due to its versatility, relatively reasonable price and high level of quality. Produced in five- and seven-seat versions. There is a model in the form of a cargo van or a passenger station wagon. The “Cross” version is the most expensive and sporty. Alloy wheels and many other interesting things are installed on it.

Like any other car, the Largus Cross is subject to tire wear or the need to replace them due to the change of season. Regardless of the reason, tire replacement should always occur in a timely manner. It is important that the new set of tires matches the old one in diameter and width, otherwise the products will not install on the wheel rim. In any case, you need to timely, efficiently and correctly select a new set of winter tires from the large assortment of products presented in stores. The characteristics of products can differ radically, so the choice should be of the highest quality possible.

Winter tires for Largus Cross, like any other model of the concern, can only be used in cold periods with an average temperature below zero degrees Celsius. Temperatures exceeding the specified temperature are definitely not suitable and require an urgent transition to summer or all-season tires. The tread depth of winter tires is much greater than that of summer tires. Also, a particularly important point when choosing is that tires for the summer or winter seasons have a radically different composition of chemical elements. This composition is prepared by the manufacturer for a specific temperature regime. The composition of winter tires is made precisely so that the products can withstand low temperatures and have maximum grip on the road surface even in very bad conditions.

Selection of tires for Lada Largus

AvtoVAZ equips configurations above the base with Continental Premium Contact tires, but usually only for summer ones. For this reason, owners have a question about how to choose summer, winter or all-season tires for their car.

Selection of summer tires

Tires must match the wheel size. When choosing, the speed and weight index, brand and tread pattern are taken into account. The production date of the tires plays an important role - if they were made more than 5 years ago, it is better to refuse such a purchase.

Tread pattern

There are three types of patterns: asymmetrical, directional and symmetrical. The latter is the most popular, as it is considered universal and fits most cars. This is the best option for everyday driving around the city - without racing or off-road use. The main reason for choosing this design is its affordable price. Tires on Lada Largus with a symmetrical pattern are cheaper than all others. Such tires also have disadvantages - poor handling at high speed and wet asphalt, problems with sharp turns.

The directional tread pattern copes well with moderate off-road conditions and drains water well, showing normal handling and stability on wet road surfaces. The disadvantages include excessive noise, they cannot be placed on different sides due to strict direction, soft edges of the tread reduce directional stability.

The asymmetrical pattern shows the best characteristics: good directional stability, reduced risk of aquaplaning, you can swap wheels if necessary, increased controllability at high speed. The only drawback is the high price.

Profile height

If it is not possible to change the rims, it is recommended to install a standard tire size. Many owners strive to improve the appearance of their car. The most obvious way to do this is to install larger wheels, and this will require appropriate low-profile tires.

With a profile height of more than 60%, it is not advisable to use the car on the highway - such a tire is suitable for poor road surfaces and softens all unevenness. For driving on asphalt, it is better to use low-profile tires, as they improve dynamic performance and handling. But ride comfort is reduced - every bump will be reflected in the suspension.

Winter tires

When choosing winter tires, a lot depends on the budget, because there are European, Japanese, Chinese, and Russian brands on the market that produce tires in different price segments. For Lada Largus, it is recommended to use standard tires recommended by the manufacturer in winter. All that remains is to choose between studded and non-studded.

Handling when driving on snow is affected not by the presence of studs, but by the tread pattern. The pattern of studless rubber should contain many rectangular blocks arranged in a checkerboard pattern. The tread depth is also important - it should be at least 8 mm. The lamellas provide good grip on winter roads. Studless tires are often called “Velcro.” This is an ideal option for regions with mild winters, where ice and temperatures below 5 degrees are rather an exception. For wet snow, a tire with a directional tread pattern is suitable, as it drains water well. Advantages of studless tires:

  • suitable for use on wet and dry road surfaces;
  • does not make noise;
  • does not have a negative impact on the road surface;
  • It is resistant to high temperatures and does not impair controllability.

The main disadvantage of studless tires is their unsuitability for use on icy road surfaces. On ice and compacted snow you cannot do without tires with spikes.

The more studs on the tread surface, the better the grip on the winter road - slipping will be reduced, and the braking distance will be significantly reduced. But such tires also have their drawbacks:

  • not suitable for wet snow;
  • on dry or wet asphalt, the braking distance increases and the risk of skidding is higher;
  • on loose snow they will not help the car to leave, but on the contrary, they will bury it even more;
  • increased noise on asphalt;
  • Fuel consumption increases slightly.

Despite a large number of shortcomings, it is the studded tires on the Lada Largus that have gained the greatest popularity in the middle zone and in the north, where weather conditions do not allow the use of other types of tires.

Selection of all-season tires

The niche of universal tires is occupied by all-season tires. For the most part, such tires are produced with an asymmetric tread pattern. The inner side has a rectangular pattern and is suitable for driving on snow, further increasing traction on icy roads. The outer side has a V-shaped tread, which allows you to effectively remove water from the contact patch between the tire and the road. "All-season" cars come in different types. The most popular are tires adapted for use on asphalt in the summer, but for winter roads this is not the best option. There is no point in considering off-road tires - they cannot be used on Largus, although they are considered universal for winter and summer.

On all-season tires you can find two abbreviations - All seasons or M+S (Mud+Snow - mud + snow). But these designations do not constitute official confirmation of the possibility of use in different conditions. The advantages of “all-season” tires include:

  • savings - no need to buy a summer and winter set of tires, especially important if the car is not used year-round;
  • the price is lower than that of specialized tires for a particular season;
  • in mild winter conditions they show better performance than special kits.

This is where the advantages end; such wheels have many more disadvantages. Their main drawback is that they are equally functional in both summer and winter, losing out to seasonal products in many respects. Most of these tires are not recommended for driving at high speeds; their cross-country ability also suffers in different conditions.

All-season tires wear out quickly; buying a new set every two years is standard practice. Summer and winter sets can last 3-4 years, and with measured movement - even longer.

In harsh winters and icy conditions, driving on such wheels is unsafe and increases the risk of getting into an accident.

Winter tires for Largus Cross: which ones to choose

If for most of the year the roads in the area are in poor condition, are not cleared of snow and are regularly covered with ice, then the most optimal option would be to use studded tires. However, it should be remembered that this type is completely useless on asphalt. If the car is used more often on normal roads in the city, then such tires will only wear out a lot. Their spines will quickly wear off or fall off.

In a city where the roads are often and quickly cleared of snow and are in decent condition, a regular Velcro is more suitable.

How to choose wheels for Largus

The choice of tires and wheels affects not only the external design of the car, but also the behavior of vehicles on the roads. Car manufacturers indicate acceptable dimensions. Let's look at what wheels can be installed on a Largus, and which ones are better for improving driving performance.

Most drivers replace standard wheels with more attractive ones

Features of Lada Largus

The Largus instruction manual indicates only one acceptable size - 185/65R15. The model is adapted to Russian conditions, based on the Dacia Logan, released in 2006. The technical characteristics of the Dacia Logan indicate a similar wheel size.

Factories install stamped 15mm wheels on Largus. In addition to the standard size declared by the manufacturer, car enthusiasts install 14-inch tires with a diameter of 185/70R14, indicated in the tire pressure table, and 165/80R14, less popular ones, selecting the appropriate wheels for the Lada Largus. Among 15-inch tires, 195/5R15 tires are chosen; 205/60R15, 195/60R15 are rare. Car enthusiasts who prefer larger tires use 205/55R16, 195/60R16. R17 is less common: 215/50R17, 205/50R17, a very exclusive option is 215/40R18, 215/35R18.

The R in the marking means the radius of the tires, the number is the size in inches.

The influence of sizes on technical characteristics

Increasing disc diameter

The diameter affects the style of the car; increasing it improves road holding and steering accuracy, but comfort on problem roads will decrease.

Increasing width

When installing wider products, steering accuracy and road holding will improve, but fuel consumption will increase.

Increasing tire width

Increasing the width of the tires themselves will also have a positive effect on road holding, on the accuracy of car control, grip on dry roads will become better, and driving on uneven roads will become more comfortable. However, resistance to aquaplaning will deteriorate, noise will increase, fuel consumption will increase, and the tires will wear out more quickly.

Magnetto Wheels

The car is equipped with original 15-inch parts manufactured by Magnetto Wheels. On the Lada Largus the wheel parameters are 6×15/4×100 D60.1 ET50:

  • width - 6 inches;
  • center-to-center distance - 4x100;
  • standard diameter 15 inches;
  • diameter of the central hole - 60.1 mm;
  • the offset is 50 mm.

According to car owners, products from Renault Logan 5.5×14/4×100 D60.1 ET43 are suitable, but 185\70R14 tires will be required.

Lada Cross

The factory-assembled 16-inch alloy wheels on the Largus Cross. They have unique parameters:

  • width is 6 inches;
  • drilling (distance between bolts) - 4x100;
  • departure - ET50;
  • CO - D60.1.

The stated size of Lada Cross parts corresponds to 205/65R16 tires. AvtoVAZ installs Continental Premium Contact tires with a low profile (55% of the width).

Is it possible to install non-standard wheels with standard 15-inch ones?

Many drivers still have 14-inch wheels from their previous cars. They want to install them instead of the required standard 15-inch ones to save money. Moreover, stamping is heavy, but these seem practical in winter.

When installing non-standard parts, problems arise in the caliper bracket, which protrudes strongly relative to the plane of contact with the hub.

There is no gap when installing 14-inch wheels; When the nuts are tightened, the disc does not spin. The non-standard 15-inch ones also do not spin, but rub against the protruding bracket. And 16-inch ones create the necessary gap.

There are products with a shorter offset; when they are installed, the wheels will be positioned wider, this will lead to a change in the load on the bearings, and road dirt will fly onto the side of the car. If you put 6.5-inch wheels with an offset of 45 on a car, the wheel will hit. If there is a warranty on the car, certified K&K products are recommended.

So, of course, you can save money and install non-standard, non-original parts, but in this case the driving performance of the car is lost. When purchasing original spare parts, when deciding which wheels are suitable for Largus, you also need to pay attention to the diameter and width, choosing the most suitable option, taking into account the pros and cons of each type.

What to avoid

The climate in Russia rarely indulges in mild winters. Usually at this time, the weather is dry or wet snow, sometimes with rain, which causes ice on the road. Many car enthusiasts try to save money on winter tires by replacing them with an all-season equivalent. But, as practice has shown, this is a dubious method. All-season tires are absolutely not adapted to cold, humid climates, which will practically not provide the necessary grip on icy surfaces. In addition, it is fraught with an emergency situation. Automotive experts agreed on one opinion - the tires on Largus should be winter.

Which summer tires are best for Largus Cross cars?

Do-it-yourself tuning of the Lada Largus Cross: exterior and interior, chassis and engine

Choosing summer tires for the Largus KrossTires on the Largus must necessarily correspond to the standard size of the wheel structure.

When choosing, the speed and weight index, brand and tread pattern are taken into account. The production date of the products plays an important role - if they were made more than 5 years ago, it is better to refuse such a purchase.

The pattern is divided into two types: asymmetrical, directional and symmetrical. The last option is considered the most popular. Since the symmetrical pattern is suitable for most cars. This option is considered as the most convenient for moving around the city. The main reason for choosing this pattern is low cost.

The directional tread pattern allows car owners to drive off-road, providing ideal directional stability and handling. Unfortunately, there is some noise when driving off-road.

Important! The asymmetrical pattern has better characteristics. This option helps ensure ideal directional stability and reduce the risk of aquaplaning.

These products have a high price.

When replacing wheel structures, it is necessary to select standard models. When installing large components, you will have to choose the appropriate tires with a low profile. To move on a flat road, it is better to use low-profile tires. This tire improves dynamic performance and handling.

Which tires to choose

It's no secret that the size and type of wheels affects the handling of a vehicle. At the Volzhsky Automobile Plant, when the Lada Largus was released, the type of wheels and maximum size were recommended. The Largus instruction manual indicates the only option: 185/65R15. However, this car was intended for Russian climatic conditions, so the following winter tire options for Largus are possible, including the Cross model:

  • the minimum wheel size from 14 inches in diameter is 185/70R14 or 165/80R14;
  • a standard copy from 15 inches and two popular models - 185/65R15 and 195/65R15;
  • larger analogues from size 16 - 195/60R16 or 205/55R16;
  • it is also possible to install 17-inch wheels - 205/50R17 or 215/50R17;
  • exclusive representatives are 18th - 215/35R18 and 215/40/18.

What parameters and characteristics should you pay attention to when choosing tires for the Lada Largus Cross?

When choosing tires for the Lada Largus model, you must follow the dimensions presented below for both the tires themselves and the wheels.

Recommended tire size:

As for disks, the parameters and sizes for them are as follows:

  • Disc bolt pattern - 4×100.
  • Rim width - 7.0J, inches.
  • Rim offset - ET 40, millimeters.
  • The diameter of the centering hole is CO 60.1, millimeters.

In the factory configuration, the Largus version is equipped with 14, 15 or 16-inch wheels. For the “Cross” version, only 16-inch wheels are installed. You can choose winter tires for this car without much difficulty, the main thing is to comply with all the required dimensions.

Installing winter tires

There are no problems with installing tires on LADA Largus. However, in some cases, when the car owner wants to install fairly large samples of winter tires, adjustment of the wheel arches may be required. It is also necessary to take into account the size factor: three-dimensional wheel models can bulge or rub when the steering wheel is turned to the maximum, for example, when reversing. An important point will be the size of tires and wheels. If the wheel is smaller, the car holds the road better, accelerates faster and becomes less fuel-hungry. The selected winter tires for Largus Cross must meet the recommended parameters described above.

Selection of tires and wheels for the Lada Largus Cross car

The automatic selection of tires and wheels for the Lada Largus Cross car, offered to our customers, allows us to solve the problem of compatibility and compliance with the recommendations of automakers. After all, they have a huge impact on a significant part of the vehicle’s operational properties, primarily on handling, fuel efficiency and dynamic qualities. In addition, one cannot fail to note the importance of tires and rims as active safety elements. That is why their choice should be approached as responsibly as possible, i.e. with knowledge of a number of parameters of these components.

Unfortunately, or, conversely, fortunately, a significant part of car enthusiasts prefer not to study the technical structure of their own car thoroughly. A fully automatic selection system in this case is perhaps the only way to avoid the wrong choice when purchasing tires and rims. And there is plenty to choose from, thanks to the widest range of such products presented in the Mosavtoshina online store.

mosautoshina.ru

Selection of discs

Sometimes, along with the tires, the rims also need to be replaced. The factory version is presented in the form of a 16-inch sample and is installed on absolutely the entire automobile range of the brand. If replacement is necessary, for example, new tires on Largus Cross or a failed (damaged) disk, it is recommended to install a similar one in size. The parameters must be accurate, which will extend the life of not only the disk itself, but also protect the driver.

Not all car enthusiasts follow this rule, trying to install wheels according to the principle of a spectacular appearance. This will not improve the driving performance of the vehicle, but it will definitely cause problems. The essence lies in the factory specifications, which are adjusted to every detail of the car. This is the permissible rim width, diameter, number of holes for bolts, as well as the distance between the latter. Neglecting this rule can cause the following problems:

  • car suspension wear;
  • the risk of not receiving warranty service;
  • problems in the chassis;
  • safety and vehicle control.

Thus, if winter tires on a Lada Largus Cross require replacement, you should also worry about the rims. It is worth choosing based on parameters and technical data, and not on an attractive, external effect. Otherwise, this may lead to a number of malfunctions, an emergency situation on the road, and, as a result, monetary costs for repairs.

Other sizes

Some desperate owners strive to experiment in this area and install tires with different characteristics on their station wagons. Often people are prompted to do this by the desire to distinguish their “horse” from the gray mass of cars of the same type.

The most popular “experimental” size is “195x65xR15”. Much less often, owners install tires with dimensions “195x60xR15” or “205x60xR15”. Note that the space present inside the body arches allows the use of tires with other sizes:

  • for “R16” wheels: “195x55xR16”, “195x60xR16” and “205x55xR16”;
  • applicable to “R17” wheels: “205x45xR17”, “205x50xR17” and “225x45xR17”;
  • with “R18” wheels: “215x35xR18” and “215x40xR18”.

Larger instances should be installed with extreme caution. Such “rollers” can lead to unpredictable changes in the behavior of a car on the road surface. This is especially pronounced in unfavorable weather.

How increasing the wheel size can affect the behavior of the car can be found in this table.

One should not discount the fact that increased sizes of wheels and tires can cause incorrect operation of the following systems responsible for active safety:

  • "ABS" - system for preventing blocking of brake mechanisms;
  • “ESP” is an option responsible for directional stability.

Summing up

Purchasing and installing winter tires on Largus or Largus Cross allows you to maintain maximum vehicle handling in winter. Of course, even the highest quality winter tires do not guarantee excellent driving in icy conditions. You should choose tires for winter based on the following parameters:

  1. Stability on ice.
  2. Hydroplaning.
  3. Speed ​​qualities.
  4. Price.
  5. Brand.

The presented criteria will help you choose the most suitable copy of the Lada Largus. In winter, tires should help with handling, cope well with slush, and also not break the budget. The brand of rubber is not particularly important, due to the constant updating of the product line.

What is the tire pressure

The tire pressure level is specified in the manufacturer's instructions.

ModelFront tire pressure, kgf/cm²Rear tire pressure, kgf/cm²
R902,42,6
F902,43,0
CROSS2,42,6

Constant monitoring of this parameter is necessary. Fluctuations to a lesser or greater extent affect the behavior of the car, efficiency, and driving safety. Let's look at the relationship more specifically.

Pressure higher than specified:

  • the tire is harder, the comfort of movement decreases;
  • the risk of damaging the wheel when hitting a stone or hole increases;
  • grip on the road deteriorates;
  • braking distance increases;
  • the tread pattern wears unevenly;
  • wheels rotate easier;
  • machine stability improves.

Pressure below normal:

  • fuel consumption increases;
  • rubber wear increases (due to an increase in the contact patch area);
  • car steering accuracy deteriorates;
  • stability on the road surface decreases (due to changes in the angle of inclination);
  • the risk of skidding increases.

Review of the best summer and winter tires

When choosing tires, owners take into account the following points:

manufacturer; operating conditions (pay attention to the pattern, tread); size; price category.

Based on reviews from Lada Largus owners, let's summarize.

The majority of survey participants adhere to the recommended sizes. The most popular non-standard tires are 195/65 R15, 195/60 R15, 205/60 R15.

Top 5 summer tires:

Nokian (HAKKA GREEN 2, Nordman SX); Michelin (Energy XM2); Continental (ContiPremiumContact 5); Matador (MP 44 Elite 3) Amtel (Planet T-301)

Attention. Complaints about rapid wear

They can burst at high speed.

The tread pattern is:

  • asymmetrical;
  • directed;
  • symmetrical (universal, therefore the most popular).

The latter is ideal for use around the city. It has an affordable price. The downside is unsatisfactory handling at high speed, on wet road surfaces, and when making sharp turns.

Top 5 winter tires:

  • Nokian;
  • Michelin;
  • Continental;
  • Goodyear;
  • Gislaved/Hankook/Bridgestone.

It is recommended to install standard winter tires. Studded or non-studded - depends on personal preferences and operating conditions. The first option is more popular among Lada Largus owners.

The pattern and tread height are important. You shouldn't skimp on winter tires.

"All-season" is not the best option. They lose to seasonal tires in most respects. In winter, there is a high risk of getting into an accident on such tires.
