We select tires for the crossover

With the growing popularity of crossovers, the number of tire manufacturers wishing to play in this field is increasing. The Singapore-based company Giti Tire is little known in Russia, although it is among the ten largest global tire companies and is a supplier of Asian and European car factories.

Why crossovers do not fit passenger tires? Because they need tires with a higher load index (39% higher on average). In addition, since crossovers have a wider track, a higher center of gravity, greater suspension travel, tires designed for them should have more rigid blocks in the shoulder area, as well as elastic longitudinal ribs in the central part to ensure optimal braking performance and directional stability. To meet these requirements, Giti Tire specialists used a frame with high density polyester cord. To strengthen the sidewalls, the belt with steel cord was expanded, and to increase the tire circumferential strength and better stability at high speeds, the subprotective layer was made seamless.

The Savero SUV model is, in my opinion, the first successful experience of Giti Tire in the development of tires for crossovers. As shown by comparative tests at European tire test sites, a quite worthy product was obtained. Savero SUV tires were among the best in their segment in terms of handling and braking on wet asphalt. True, judging by the European markings, they do not have the highest ratings for grip on wet pavement (index C) and rolling resistance (also index C), as well as the average noise figure.

I happened to drive around Barcelona and its environs on Tiguan, shod with Savero SUV tires. There was no rain, as luck would have it, so it was not possible to verify personally the characteristics of the wet road. On dry asphalt Tiguan walked confidently, not only in a straight line, but also in corners. At high speeds, I didn’t notice excessive noise, but the tires on the local primer are pretty noisy - it was not for nothing that the engineers warned that they were designed for paved roads.

Savero SUV is available in versions with speed indices H (210 km / h) and V (240 km / h). Diameter - from 16 to 18 inches. The retail price is 3, 790–7, 190 rubles, depending on the dimension.
