From the UAZ factory "loaf" is usually produced in standard configuration, on disks of 16 "size and with rubber" Kama-219 "- 225/75 R16.

The UAZ plant installs two types of discs on the "loaf":

• the first - with front drum brakes (on Timket axles) with round holes, white 16 "ET +22;
• the second - with disc front brakes (Spicer axles) with triangular holes, silver 16 "ET +40.

For normal driving, this equipment may be sufficient, but for off-road and other difficult conditions, this rubber, to put it mildly, is not suitable. Kama-219 is generally a bad option. Being all-season and versatile, it is too hard, which is why it "floats" on the asphalt. In winter, for the same reason (poor elasticity), it slides on the first ice, but it “gets washed out” through mud and skids, even on wet grass.

On the standard set of "loaves", you can install wheels up to 31x10.5 "without cutting and lifting *.

So, here's a small selection of mud tire models that you can install on your car without modifying it:

Yokohama Geolandar A / T-S G012 255/65 R16 109H

BFGoodrich Mud Terrain T / A 235/70 R16

BFGoodrich Mud Terrain T / A KM2 235/70 R16 104 / 101Q

Non-standard tire options for UAZ "Bukhanka"

With minor alterations of the UAZ "Bukhanka" car, it becomes possible to install wheels of a larger diameter and width, which is very helpful when driving through mud, stones and all kinds of off-road conditions in difficult conditions.

With a lift * or trimming arches, you can put:

COOPER STT 33 R15

BF Goodrich mud terrain 265/75 R 16

BF Goodrich 33x10.5 R15

BF Goodrich MT 255x85R16

BF Goodrich 35x12.5R15

Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ Radial 35 / 12.5 R15

A couple of specific examples:

1. Fitting rubber size 285/75 R16 requires a 75mm body lift and a 30mm suspension lift.
2. To install rubber 35x14.50 R16 (for example SUPERSWAMPER Bogger) on 16-inch discs 10 inches wide, you need to: make a suspension lift and a body lift, on the rear stretcher and front spacers. With such a combination, the rubber does not rub over the car body, even with the highest articulation and an inverted steering wheel.

When deciding whether to lift a car, remember: "Loaf" has a high center of gravity, so a suspension lift is not very desirable, a body lift can be considered a little more acceptable, but this will in any case affect the stability of the car on bends and various inclines.

About the elevator

Let's briefly note some of the features:

• the smaller the lift, the better.
• make a body lift better than a suspension lift.
• at first it is worth cutting the arches as much as possible and after that, if necessary, lift them.
• it does not matter for the frame whether the body is lifted or not.
• lifting with rubber or something springy can lead to the body's control and breakage of the bolts of its fastening on the pits and bumps. Bolts of strength 8.8 are required together with rigid spacers.
• you need to trim the arches as much as possible: the lower the elevator, the greater the stability of the car and the better handling.
• there should be at least 14 cm of free space above the wheel. Up to the arch, otherwise it will rub during articulation.
• the rear arches are very easy to cut.
• by cutting the arches in front, you can win a maximum of 5 cm, if you do not be smart with the body number and leave room for the door seal. If you cut it by 7cm, you will have to remove the seal.

* Lift is the installation of discs and tires with a diameter larger than that provided by the manufacturer. To do this, small changes are made to the vehicle design, mainly designed to increase the "axle-body" distance.

Humanity, in search of the ideal, has been looking for many years, and continues to search for a car that would meet the following conditions:

• Increased cross-country ability when driving on roads of poor quality or in their absence.
• Low price.

And if the first condition is met by many modern car models: jeeps, crossovers, then the fulfillment of the second condition is unrealistic. The fact is that the high cross-country ability of the car is provided by a number of parameters. Among them:

• Overall parameters: ground clearance, hanging angle, static stability angle, cross-country angle.
• Traction - drive type, power density, thrust-to-weight ratio
• Support-couplings - specific pressure on the soil, type of suspension, coefficient of adhesion of tires.

Only large automobile concerns Toyota, Mercedes, Chevrolet can “pull” the creation of a high-quality SUV. Prices for SUV models from these manufacturers are high. Therefore, the views of ordinary motorists often turn to the East - to Russia, where "there are no roads, but directions." In this regard, the creation of our own economical car model capable of driving on any surface became mandatory 60 years ago with the conquest of the taiga and tundra.

In those years, a number of SUVs were created by the Soviet automakers. The most popular and favorite among drivers was a series of off-road vehicles produced at the UAZ plant - UAZ-450 and the successor to UAZ-452. The popularity is evidenced by the fact that its everyday name - "loaf", given by the engineers of the plant because of the characteristic shape of the car, has taken root among the people.

UAZ "loaf" is known to any inhabitant of the former USSR.

The history of the "loaf" and its benefits

The 60th anniversary of this "people's" car was widely celebrated last year. Few people know that the first "loaves" were representatives of another UAZ family - UAZ-450, produced before 1965. In 1966, changes were made and the updated UAZ was assigned a new index - 452. For more than 50 years, the outlines of the model's body have remained unchanged. By the way, the onboard modification of the UAZ-452 is called the "tadpole".

The design and level of comfort in this UAZ model are Spartan, but the car is not designed for comfort. But in other respects, this is a unique car that combines size and price. passenger car economy class, the capacity of the cargo part, which will give a head start to the truck, and the cross-country ability of the UAZ-452 is such that the inhabitants of many remote and inaccessible areas, foresters, fishermen, hunters are ready to pray for a "loaf".

Tires for UAZ "loaf"

Car enthusiasts who purchase the UAZ-452 model, as well as the modernized modifications -33741 and -33909, make this choice because of their spaciousness, reliability and cross-country ability. This is a utility vehicle that, in addition to cargo, can accommodate 5 people. The tires on the UAZ "loaf" must be powerful and reliable in order to cope with both the load in the cabin and with different types of coverage. Automotive tires are of the following types:

• Summer
• Winter
• Versatile or all-season

Each of them has pros and cons. All-season tires are inexpensive and quiet. At the same time, it wears out quickly, is not suitable for driving on ice, does not allow gaining high speed, and does not withstand sudden temperature changes. Winter tires are studded and without studs. For the city, the friction version of the tires is suitable. It has excellent grip without sacrificing speed. It makes sense to install a studded one in the northern regions, starting from the Moscow region and to the east, where the winters are snowy, and the roads are usually not very clear.

The versatility of the "loaf" is emphasized by the fact that any type of off-road rubber is suitable for it:

• Standard off-road for optimum traction on all road surfaces. The disadvantage is that it is very noisy.
• Mud - you can comfortably drive through mud or very swampy areas. In this case, the car loses control over a knurled or smooth surface.
• Extreme - you can drive along the most difficult sections of the road. The disadvantages of this type are extremely low travel speed and lack of controllability when picking up speed.

The UAZ-452 leaves the factory equipped with wheels on disks, the diameter of which is from 29 to 33 inches, and rubber in two versions:

• 225/75 R16.
• 235/74 R15 - on some models
• Razortovka discs - 5 * 139.7.

What non-standard sizes can be supplied

The larger version for the R17 disc on factory cars in the standard configuration did not become popular due to the fact that rubber of this diameter, without changing the suspension height, touches the wheel arches. Since today is very big choice tires of regular sizes, the practice of using non-standard tires has not become widespread.

Another issue is the modification of your car, in particular, raising the suspension to a predetermined height. The changes will affect the transmission and body of the car, but will allow equipping it with tires even 37-39 inches high, which will significantly increase the cross-country ability of the "loaf".

The tire pressure indicator is important because it determines how your UAZ will behave while driving. Affects handling, ride softness, road grip, fuel consumption. Here is a table of pressure depending on the size of the tread and the width of the disc:

It can be seen from it that the optimal tire pressure on the UAZ "loaf" is 1.7-1.9 kgf / cm2 for the front ones, 2.2-2.4 for the rear ones. If a softer stroke is desired, the pressure should be slightly reduced. It is checked like this:

• After removing the cap, connect the pressure measuring device - "manometer"
• Look at the readings
• If the pressure is less than required, pump up
• If more, decrease the pressure slightly by pressing on a specific part of the pressure gauge.

Review of the best summer and winter tires

Choosing the best tires for the UAZ "loaf" becomes a difficult task. Today manufacturers offer dozens of variants of "domestic" and imported rubber. Here is a table of "Russian" tires for various UAZ models:

Top 5 summer and winter tire options for your UAZ

Winter tires

When choosing such rubber, one should build on the areas of use of the car and the availability good roads... The versatility of tires, their weight and noise, the handling of the car when using them, speed, balance are important. Out of a sense of patriotism, we added two domestic models to the list. Considering that winter tires can be studded and non-studded, we expanded it to 6 positions:

• Omskshina Ya-192 is a classic of the domestic tire industry. An inexpensive option for driving in the autumn-spring period on mud and muddy roads. Aggressive tread reduces braking distance to a minimum. According to reviews, it is less manageable on snow or ice. The cost of one tire is from 3000 rubles.
• Cordiant Winter Drive is an economical variant of non-studded winter tires of European quality. The price for the R16 is 4000 rubles.
• Studded Nokian tires Hakkapeliitta 8 for 14,000 rubles - Finnish manufacturers have taken care of cross-country ability, handling and durability. Perhaps the best option among European counterparts.
• Unsticked Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 for 10,000 rubles.
• Studded Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice Arctic - about 9 thousand rubles. Ideal for regions where winters are coldest.

• Non-studded Michelin X-Ice 3 is a lightweight tire thanks to its special rubber blend. Low consumption fuel, good stability and controllability even at high speed

Summer tires

The choice of summer tires depends on the goals pursued by the car owner. Special tires are required for driving on mud, sand or extreme trails. The best mud tires in our opinion are:

• The BF Goodrich Mud Terrain T / A KM3 is by far the best mud tire. The steering wheel obeys perfectly and is very sensitive, rare noiselessness when driving at high speed, durability. The price is high - about 13,000 rubles, but the advantages of these tires more than cover the costs of them.

• Nokian Rockproof is the model for “trendy” occasions. High-strength, rigid, built-in protectors of stones. If you are going to an area with no roads at all, this is a good option. Economical - 8000 rubles.
• Kumho Road Venture is one of the cheapest foreign models. Price - from 6000 rubles. For little money - high cross-country ability, soft ride, handling at high speed on a smooth road.
• Bridgestone Dueler is an economical model from the leader of the tire industry for 7000 r. The manufacturer used the latest technology to create these tires. There are no particular advantages, but neither are there any disadvantages.
• I-471 is a good local analogue for 3000 rubles. Differs in water passability due to grooves on the tread that drain moisture, and convenience when driving on the highway.

Winter and summer tire- the difference is significant

At first glance, summer and winter tires on the UAZ differ only visually. The tread for the winter of greater depth, it has a completely different pattern. There are visible studs on the surface of the tire for traction, especially on ice. But these are not the main differences between winter and summer tires.

The tires intended for use in summer are more rigid and can withstand high temperatures above zero. The temperature of the asphalt rises during the hot season, especially when the vehicle is braking and accelerating. With a significant cooling summer tire can no longer hold the road, easily goes into a skid. It can be compared to an eraser, which, lying in the snow, will simply break if you squeeze it with your hand. Summer look of tires at a temperature of minus 1 degree loses its elasticity. Therefore, in case of frost, it is urgent to replace summer tires with winter ones.

The composition from which the winter tire is made allows it not to harden in severe frosts, to hold the grip firmly. It is soft, looks more voluminous, its protector is higher. With the help of it tires successfully fight snow and ice in winter. Such tires cannot keep the road at freezing temperatures, and especially in the rain. The car becomes poorly controlled. If you use a winter tire in the summer, it will wear out and break down quickly.

Winter tires can be operated up to the plus 1 degree mark. At higher temperatures, they need to be changed.

How to choose winter tires

Probably all motorists know: when choosing tires for the cold season, you need to be very responsible about it. Regardless of which UAZ brand is owned, the wheels of the car must be proportional to the dimensions of the arches.

The best brands of winter tires

If you choose the wrong size tires, they will rub against the wheel arches and support the frame. Do not forget that winter tires for UAZ should be selected in accordance with the weight of the car. Tires designed for tractors and large trucks are very hard and cannot be fitted to an SUV. Expensive tires on UAZ stamped disks look frivolous.

From tread width winter tires fuel consumption also depends. The wider, the more. This rule applies when traveling on any public roads.

The tread pattern of the tire allows the machine to increase its cross-country ability. There is optimal adhesion of winter tires to the road, so you can use different shifts and adaptations. This is possible if the tread pattern is suitable for the type of road surface.

When buying expensive wheels, you need to balance them without tires. Be sure to check their quality characteristics when rotating. By purchasing expensive tires, it is necessary to find out which values ​​of the weights for balancing to zero are considered exceeding the norm.

The colder it gets outside, the more motorists think about changing summer tires. When buying tires at UAZ, give preference to tires with spikes. But in this situation, the driver needs to clearly understand where and for what purpose the studded tires will be installed.

If the roads are snowy or covered with ice, a studded winter tire on the front axle will help. But it must be borne in mind that it will reduce the controllability of the car, will cause skidding on ice sections of roads and when braking. That's why winter tires with spikes it is so important to set both back and forth. This ensures the safety of all participants. road traffic and operation of the UAZ.

Features of winter tires on the UAZ Patriot

According to their purpose, they can be:

• all-season;
• mud;
• winter;
• for extreme situations;
• large sizes with low pressure.

It is important that all tires on the Patriot are the same size. The front tires wear out faster, so every 1000 km you need to change the front and rear wheels places. It is more expedient to put new winter tires forward after balancing. It is recommended to rebalance after 500 km.

When driving on clean, snow-free asphalt, the pressure in winter tires should have standard values: 1.8-2.0 on the front wheels and 2.1-2.4 on the rear wheels. These values ​​are determined by the manufacturer and depend on the characteristics of the tire itself. The manufacturer has not specified the optimality of the readings.

When measuring pressure, the use of the device is mandatory. At the same time, it is necessary to check whether air is escaping through the spool.

Winter shoes for Patriot

Even with a slight roll of the car, you can visually notice the shortcomings of the purchased winter tire.

UAZ Patriot is four-wheel drive vehicle, heavy SUV. Tire pressure has a big impact on its drivetrain and fuel consumption. Differing tire pressures on one axle accelerate the wear of the differential. Its blocking and high pressure in wheels are capable of completely destroying the bridge of a car.

In the production of various tires at UAZ, a different composition of raw materials is used. The price of the product depends on the components of this composition. The higher the quality of the raw materials, the more expensive winter tires are.

The mass of rubber on the UAZ is small, but specifications car changes:

• dynamics improves;
• mileage increases;
• reduced fuel consumption.

The patterns of winter tires on the UAZ can be different: diamonds, checkers, grooves, etc. Square-section studs will provide good grip. Checkers will help the car to cope with deep snow. Wet snow, bare asphalt - studless winter tires will suit the car.

Winter tires on UAZ provide good grip on the road surface, do not freeze, so the car becomes easy to drive.

It is advisable to choose tires from the manufacturer of the car itself. This gives you the assurance that the wheel and tire sizes will match.

Rules for the selection of tires for UAZ

A lot depends on good winter shoes

At first glance, it seems that there are no difficulties. When choosing tires for the Patriot, you need to find out their technical characteristics. Tires must create conditions for safe overcoming of off-road. Rubber for UAZ Patriot must be enduring, contribute to stability and the development of high speed.

Car tires can be without spikes, all-season or velcro. It is suitable for installation on UAZ Patriot, UAZ Hunter, and also "loaf". The marking of this rubber is M + S, if the tires are marked with an "asterisk", it means that they have passed special tests on a dense snow road surface.

Winter tires are divided into 2 types:

• European - for a mild winter climate;
• Scandinavian - for a harsh, snowy winter.

European tires have the following properties: low level noise, excellent wear resistance, grip on wet, snow-free asphalt, resistance to "slashing" (the exact opposite of aquaplaning, easy movement on "slush"). On an icy surface, such a tire will not show itself very well. Temperature regime suitable for this type of tire is the zero mark.

We can conclude: what better rubber behaves on ice, so much the worse - on wet asphalt.

Non-studded tires, which are close in their characteristics to studded ones, are intended for those roads where snow is removed, but salt and other substances that corrode ice and snow are not poured.

If the driver decides to install studded tires, then the first 200-500 km he must observe the following rules:

• avoid sharp turns;
• slow down smoothly;
• "Roll" the spikes to the tire.

It is better to choose high-quality studded tires at the manufacturers, with a guarantee of product quality.

What discs and tires to choose for UAZ Bukhanka? Winter wheels on the UAZ loaf

Tires uaz loaf

As you name the car, so it will go. Familiar situation. True, without wheels, and even more so without tires, it already becomes problematic. In any car, tires are the strategically needed little thing.

Let's see what tires can be used if your car is UAZ "Bukhanka

Optimal tire pressure

Why is it important to consider the tire pressure level? An experienced driver knows that this affects tread wear and overall off-road performance.

The most optimal tire pressure, for example, for SUVs on the front wheels is no more than 1.7 atmospheres, if you have tires with an index (made in Yaroslavl) and 1.9 (if other manufacturers).

The rear tires contain 2.2 for Yaroslavl-made tires and 2.4 - 2.5 for other manufacturers.

Tire size

The next challenge for the car enthusiast is choosing the optimal tire size. Which ones are needed?

Factory rubber on UAZ “Loaf” is installed with the size 225/75 R16, in some models the rubber is 235/74 R15. It is important to remember here that the diameter of the disc is in the region of 29-33 inches.

Situations are known in history when tires with a R17 wheel were used, but this was not developed. If the maximum suspension travel is allowed, then the rubber will touch the arches themselves.

Thus, any modification of the Loaf is equipped with 16-inch steel discs with an index of 5 × 139.7. In other cases, they can be replaced with R17 and R18 wheels with the same numbers and tire size 225/75 R16.

Will all tires fit?

Now it is important for us to understand what tires can be installed on our "Loaf", which manufacturer, so that these tires serve us as long as possible? It is important to figure it out here.

If you are not too lazy to go to the nearest car market and walk through the stalls, then before your eyes a grandiose picture of the assortment and all kinds of tire options will appear. You will be literally overwhelmed by the choice, the variety of manufacturers.

So what do you do? The main factor will be the availability of conditions under which the machine will operate.

There are many manufacturers. But can everyone be trusted? For example, you can put universal tires: Bel-24 235/75 R15. Among the advantages: high wear resistance, resource up to 60 thousand km. “I-502 with size 225/85 R15. Model "Ya560 with increased maximum speed.

There is a variant of the Ya-357A installation, which is distinguished by the best speed and the ability to load up to 1060 kgf. Also suitable "Ya245 and Ya245-1.

Any driver who respects himself and others on the road must constantly take care of his car and do for him only what will be beneficial, not harmful.

Mud tires on the UAZ Loaf - 10 popular models R15 and R16

Buhammers are excellent vehicles for hunting, fishing and for those who live “by the gifts of the forest” - collect mushrooms and berries for delivery. Space in the back is simply immeasurable, it is easy to take 5-7 people into the wilderness. However, from the factory, absolutely inappropriate tires are installed on the car - the all-season Kama-219. In fact, this is neither fish nor meat - it is not normal to drive through the mud, nor on the highway or on a winter road.

Well, if you want to get deeper into the forest off-road, the tires will definitely need to be changed. Therefore, in this article we will make a selection of minimum and maximum size mud tires that can be installed on the Loaf.

So, the stock tires are 225/75 / R16, in inches it will be 29.3 ″. Thirty inches for a loaf is just tears, it is highly desirable to make at least a minimal revision of the car in order to install at least 32 ″ tires. And as soon as it goes, you will get to 35 ″ - this size is more than optimal, ground clearance will increase very realistically. But let's not talk about the elevator and cutting arches for now, for a start we will consider what kind of rubber there is in the size of 225/75 / R16 and close to this, but does not require modifications.

Cordiant off Road

The all-round mud rubber that revolutionized the off-road world. Completely won the lowest price segment, because there are practically no competitors. Available in the size of 225/75 / R16, for the money everything is fine here, the tires are worth their money completely.

For the initial off-road and go fishing this size and this rubber is quite enough. This is purely mud tires, and it is highly discouraged to ride on it in winter. Rows smartly on mud, however, “the slippers are extremely oak and it will be uncomfortable to pick out on a specific off-road. In general, it can be recommended for those who do not want to bother with car modifications. As they say - put it on, sat down and drove off. You will go much further than on Kame-219.

Contyre Expedition

One-to-one tread pattern with Cordiants, as well as with the first goodrich. Also available in the standard Bukhanov size. However, the Kontyres are really better than the Cords, because they are noticeably lighter and softer. However, the size here is a little less than the declared one, so in comparison with Korda you will lose about half a centimeter in clearance. For the standard tire size, this is not critical at all, so instead of Cordov it is quite possible to put a Contair Expedition.

Cooper Discoverer STT

This is a chic American mud car, but quite expensive and it is highly discouraged to put such an expensive rubber in such a small size. If you have already decided to put Cooper, then here is the normal size for a Loaf - 265/75 / R15, in inches it is 30.6 ″.

To install everything, you will need to cut the arches, you won't even need to do any elevator. Nevertheless, if you decide to set the standard size - there is also a Cooper 225/75/16. However, size 265 is essentially optimal. If we increase the size even more, then we look towards the increase in the profile - 80 and 85.

On the 16th discs there are tires of excellent size, for the installation of which you will have to prepare the machine a little. Elevator or cutting arches, and even very large sizes - both.

Omskshina Ya-192

Legendary "pyataks, purely Oazovskoy rubber for tru uazovodov." The size is unusual - 215/90 / R15 (in inches it is 30.2 ″). Narrow and high tire, very often you can see her on Loaves, Hunters and 469s. Classics of the Oise genre. Excellent rowing of dirt, and if you cut it, it starts digging like an excavator. It is installed without any alterations at all, put it on and went. Great budget option. For those who are not satisfied with the excellent cross-country ability of these tires, they may well “cut the dimes through one side block - there will generally be fire!

Omskshina Ya-245

Another classic of the genre, by the tread pattern, of course, you cannot say that the tire is passable, but the Uazovody are an enterprising people, and therefore they manage to make an “all-terrain” out of such rubber - for this it is enough just to cut the tires correctly. The cut Ya-245 is really similar to Simex Jungle Trekker 2. The size of "Yashek" - 215/90 / R15 (30.2 ″), it is most often bought “for cutting - great option how to put extreme rubber on Buhammer at a low price. We highly recommend it.

BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T / A KM2

A new model of goodrichs, which replaced the T / A KM. An excellent size for Buhu - 265/75 / R16, in inches it is already 31.6 ″. To install such good rubber, you can only limit yourself to sharp arches. Goodrich of this modification is specially designed for mountainous terrain, for stones and serpentines. However, it kneads dirt well, but if you compare it with extreme rubber, then the difference will be just colossal. Considering that this size of Goodrich will cost you a very serious amount, it is better to add a little more and put Simex (about them below).

For off-road fans who have decided to prepare the Bukhanther more seriously, we recommend paying attention to the R15 rubber, there is a lot more choice here. However, let's agree right away - we are not afraid to cut the arches and set the cut to 30-32 ″)) In this part of the selection, we will consider rubber in the amount of 30-32 ″ on R15 disks.

Federal Couragia M / T

Available in sizes 265/75 / R15 (30.6 ″) and 255/80 / R15 (31.1 ″). Who needs it, there are also large sizes.

It is optimal to take the second one - a little more clearance, and the improvements are exactly the same - just cutting the arches. Those who do not want to cut arches can make an elevator, but remember that out of 2 evils (cutting or elevator), the elevator is several times worse, since the controllability and safety on turns and rolls deteriorate.

Dried apricots are a serious MUD rubber, not extreme, but much better than Goodrich in cross-country ability. Very soft, and therefore perfectly flattened off-road. Still, it's rare to get into the wilderness without the grass of the wheels. Couragia M / T is not pop, it is serious tires, on which offroaders on the Oise won the competition, making even cars with extreme training and the same tires.

And, of course, we will consider rubber of the extreme class in large sizes - only for prepared cars. Cutting arches, lifting the suspension or bodywork - all this will need to be done in order to install these “chic sneakers, which also cost a lot.

Forward Safari 500

The analogue of the famous Simex is purely extreme rubber, our domestic, and therefore very cheap compared to imported analogs. The only size is 265/75 / R15. From the pros - gorgeously digs dirt, clay, does not get washed out, inexpensive. Of the minuses - very oak and azzy heavy. As a budget option for those who want to seriously increase cross-country ability without critical investments.

Simex Extreme Trekker 2

Size 275/80 / R15 - in inches it is as much as 32.3 ″. Serious size, and the rubber itself is just fire. A classic of the off-road genre, everyone wants to put it, but not everyone has the financial capabilities, because the rubber itself will cost from 50k per set, and even the preparation of the car will result in certain monetary expenses.

Simex Jungle Trekker 2

Jungles are a very desirable rubber, just top class. In the mud, they are really good, pure extreme class. The side lugs are simply monstrous, thanks to them it gets out of the rut without any problems at all. There are simply not many advantages, but there are no disadvantages at all. So if you are looking for extreme all-terrain tires for Loaf - pay attention to Jungle Trekker. The only thing - keep in mind that the dimensions here are really huge. The minimum is 31 × 9.5-16, the minimum for R15 is 31 × 9.5-16. Therefore, in order to put the Dzhangly - Loaf, it will be necessary to specifically refine it. However, if you do this, you will be able to leave in such a jungle where no one but you will reach))

What kind of rubber is better to put on UAZ

During the operation of the car, I tried a lot of what kind of rubber and for myself I have already made a choice, what kind of rubber is better to put on the UAZ. I don't experiment anymore. I tried it not only by manufacturers, but also by brands.

Manufacturers first. During the purchase of the car, there was no particular choice and it was necessary to take basically what was. And the rubber “Voltyre I-245” was distributed, while its quality was disgusting. During the year of the run, it could become covered with cracks, followed by a breakthrough of the side walls. At the same time, tires of this brand installed from the factory took several years to wear out.

Although this rubber is described as winter, but for me, it goes more like an all-season, as it goes well in mud and snow, and also holds the road. After wear and tear, Voltyre no longer returned.

Then I bought rubber from SIBUR - Omskshina OJSC of the same model Ya-245. At the same time, they have it like a summer one. And everything would be fine, but a hernia appeared on 2 out of 5 balloons. The rest honestly worked the entire term.

Then it was the turn of the rubber “Kama, back again, of the same model. Why back this one? I liked it. As I said, it holds the road well, it is not too bad in the mud, and most importantly, it is not very noisy on the asphalt. So far, there are no complaints about the quality, but it is understandable, since it is still somewhat more expensive. So if you have a question, what kind of rubber is better to put on the UAZ, try this one first.

But for off-road driving in heavy mud, it is better to buy something more serious. The last purchase of rubber for its UAZ a 3303 is "Contyre Expedition". Its marking is Expedition 215/65 R16 98Q. I put it only from late autumn to spring. You can't imagine better off-road tires for UAZ. The car goes confidently in mud and snow. The noise level on the asphalt is slightly higher, but not much higher. In principle, it can also be installed in the summer.

Excellent all-season for UAZ Contyre Expedition

I used to put Voltyre VS-5 tires for the summer. The car goes smoothly, but driving it in the mud is just awful.

Of course, my opinion may not be very objective, but I hope the article will help someone decide which one is better to install tires on your UAZ.

Selection of stamped discs and rubber for UAZ Loaf

UAZ Loaf (UAZ-452/2206/3741/3909/3962) - truly legendary car... Produced at the Ulyanovsk plant since 1965, it has not lost its popularity today. The car combines such qualities as increased cross-country ability and excellent capacity, which makes it indispensable for travel, hunting, fishing in off-road conditions.

But the car really reveals its merits after various modifications that allow expanding the range of its capabilities: self-blocks that improve off-road movement, springs and elongated shock absorbers that make the car's suspension softer, off-road tires with disks that increase the vehicle's cross-country ability, body lift, winches, bumpers, etc. All these modifications make it possible to turn an ordinary UAZ into a prepared off-road SUV.

But no matter what tuning is installed on the UAZ 452, it is necessary, first of all, to very carefully approach the choice of wheels. If you have decided on the size of tires, it's time to start selecting wheels. Every motorist knows that from the right choice wheel rims very important indicators of an SUV depend:

Safety while driving;

The ability to freely overcome rough terrain and off-road.

The optimal choice is steel off-road wheels for UAZ Loaf. They are great for driving in the most extreme conditions: when hitting various obstacles, they deform only at the point of contact. This damage is easily repaired by balancing or rolling the disc, which cannot be said, for example, with alloy wheels.

Today, Off Road Wheels steel rims for UAZ Bukhanka are produced different sizes, for any tires, with positive and negative departure... They are made from two stamped solid steel sheets that are welded together.

Before purchasing wheel disks, you can first compare in our calculator the compatibility of all characteristics with the parameters of rubber, technical features of the body, chassis. The possible behavior of your UAZ Bukhanka on off-road routes will depend on the observance of all these nuances.

We divide the choice of disks into two parts:

1. If you plan to bet disc brakes, then buy 16 "or 17" ORW discs at UAZ Loaf, suitable for bolt pattern (5x139.7).

2. If you do not plan to install disc brakes, then in addition to the discs described above, it is possible to install ODS discs of 15 diameter.

Their main advantage is that Off Road Wheels are stronger and more reliable than standard stock ones.

Today, many car owners tune the UAZ Loaf.

One of the first problems is replacing standard, narrow 215/90/15 wheels with wide off-road tires, which will significantly increase cross-country ability. To do this, it is necessary to replace the factory stamped wheels with off-road wheels. Discs are selected depending on the rubber:

30 Inch.

Wheels 30x9.5x15 are installed on the car without modifications. Recommended drives:

16x8 ET +15, 15x7 ET0, 15x8 ET0, 16x7 ET +30, 16x8 ET 0

To install wheels 31 inches (265x70x16) you need to play with the parameters. We recommend metal discs for UAZ Loaf with negative overhang:

15x8 ET -19, 15x8 ET-25, 16x8 ET -19, 16x8 ET -25

32-33 Inches.

The next stage of the wheel is 32-33 inches, it involves the refinement of the car's suspension, body body lift, the installation of arch extensions, and sprung, spring-loaded spacers, trimming of the arches. The classic size that many Bukhankovodov strive for is 33x10.5 (285x75x16).

15x8 ET-40, 15x8 ET-25, 16x8 ET-25, 16x10 ET-44

35 Inch.

35-inch wheels transfer very high loads to the drives, axles and Loaf box. To install them, portal bridges and discs with a badlock are often used, for example, 15x8 5x139,7 ET-40

Whatever ORW wheels you choose for your UAZ Loaf, they are guaranteed to ensure your safety, increase the stability of the car, and also give it a stylish appearance.

Some car enthusiasts are accustomed to driving not only in small, maneuverable cars, which are ideal for driving in a large metropolis. A small car is easier to park, since it does not require too much space and is cheaper to maintain (small engine displacement), but having in addition such a car as a UAZ, huge opportunities open up for the car owner. A car like this can rightfully be called a beast car. Not a stock properly pumped car, which has tires of normal cross-country ability, is able to cope with any off-road conditions.

Rubber "Goodrich", which is chosen by many owners of a UAZ car, naturally has excellent characteristics, however, such tires are quite expensive. In turn, at the car market you can buy various Russian tires, which are no worse than foreign ones, especially since the rigid structure of the UAZ suspension is able to withstand different loads. However, like any other product, the rubber on the UAZ has its own advantages and significant disadvantages, in the material below, the principle of the correct choice of the optimal rubber for domestic car UAZ.

Features to consider when choosing tires for UAZ

Naturally, the main criterion according to which the choice of tires for a UAZ car will be made is the conditions in which the car is operated. It is no secret that tires, which will be an ideal option in strong off-road conditions, helping the car owner to overcome any obstacles during a hunting or fishing trip, will be different from a simple one. standard rubber... In the first case, you may need tires of special cross-country ability, while in the second case, it is enough.

As practice shows, on the UAZ car, which has retained its primary appearance (the factory car) and has not subsequently undergone alterations, rubber with a height of 29-31.5 inches is installed. Most often, in car markets and in relevant stores, you can find tires that have dimensions:

• 215 / 90R15;
• 235 / 85R16;
• 240 / 80R15.

It should be remembered that it is wise to “dress” the UAZ wheel. In the event of even minor overloads and while driving at high speed, the car's suspension touches the arches. In connection with this feature of the domestic car, when operating the UAZ in medium off-road conditions, it is advisable to worry about raising the suspension by 6–8 cm. Thanks to this simple maneuver, the car owner will be able to “shoe” his car in rubber with greater cross-country ability, for example:

• 265 / 80R15;
• 265 / 85R15;
• 265 / 90R15;
• 285 / 750R16;
• 290 / 80R15;
• 290 / 80R16;
• 320 / 70R15.

Among other changes that can be overtaken by a UAZ that is regularly operated in strong off-road conditions, it may be necessary to trim the arches. It is worth noting that those car owners who will subsequently drive their UAZ through the wilderness of impassable mud will have to first remake their car, first of all, the body, suspension and transmission will be subject to global modifications. If the owner of this large, ubiquitous car makes all the changes correctly, he will be able to equip his vehicle with tires measuring 35-39 inches.

Rubber, which is suitable for a UAZ car, like other cars, can be summer and, accordingly, winter. In turn, these types are subdivided into the following types:

• universal (can be used in almost any conditions);
• mud ( perfect option for medium off-road);
• extreme (as the name suggests, they can be used on any off-road, where there are no paths or tracks).

Rules for choosing tires for UAZ cars

Any rubber, both mud and universal, must comply with several interrelated factors. The first thing to consider is the SUV model. In practice, completely different tires will be optimal for different car models, the size of which will directly depend on the angle of rotation of the wheels, suspension travel, gift space, strength and power of the gearbox. In practice, many UAZ car owners are trying to do everything possible to remove the restrictions provided by the manufacturer, however, this may require impressive capital. For example, the easiest way is to modify the UAZ "Patriot", since it is on it that you can easily and simply install tires bigger size... Together with the size of the rubber, the ground clearance of the car increases at the same time, in view of this circumstance, it is advisable to "shoe" your vehicle in tires of the maximum size.

Especially in mud, it is very important to pay attention to the level of preparation of the car for off-road conditions. The car owner should be careful about the design and tread pattern of the tire, since these factors determine the "strength and depth" of the off-road, on which the car will be able to drive in the future. It is advisable to choose a larger tread pattern (most experienced drivers purchase a herringbone pattern, considering it the most suitable choice). For example, when driving in swampy and muddy terrain, it is best to buy the softest mud tire. This type of tire makes it easier to drive, as it does not tear the turf and easily overcomes bumps, taking advantage of the additional grip. Good choice can be called tires that are equipped with diagonal grooves that are able to remove dirt, "pushing" it outward when the wheel rotates.

By no means the last factor that you should pay attention to when choosing tires for UAZ is the cost of the product, which, in turn, will depend on the manufacturer (brand promotion), tire size, design and tread pattern.

It is worth noting that it is better to take care of buying the optimal pair of tires in advance, as practice shows, quite often only the most popular models are on sale, many tires may simply not be available, since they are sold exclusively by prior order.

Selection of winter tires for UAZ "Bukhanka"

If the priority of the car owner is to purchase, he must proceed from the technical characteristics of the car. Such rubber should be universal, the owner vehicle should easily pass off-road, and impassable mud, and flat sections of the road covered with asphalt.

True, in severe frost, such rubber begins to slip, depriving the car owner of safe movement. However, I-192 perfectly show their characteristics on sections of the road with deep mud in the spring and autumn periods.

A good option for mud tires are tires Cordiant Off Road, which are all-round tires from the lowest price segment... A little more expensive is Contyre Expedition rubber, which has the same tread pattern as the previous version. The advantage of Contyre is their lightness and softness.
