Tire specifications
DescriptionDescription Bontyre BT-228
Unlike most other tire products released under this brand, the all-season truck tire Bontyre was specifically designed for use on minibuses and light trucks with the possibility of installation on any axis. In addition, the size range of this model consists of three types of sizes for wheels with a landing diameter of 16 inches, which significantly expands its applicability.
Year-round operation capability
This tire is distinguished by excellent traction and coupling properties, both on summer and winter types of coverage. This became possible because the tread pattern consists entirely of separate rectangular blocks grouped into four longitudinal ribs. The small number of tread elements Bontyre BT-228 made it possible to significantly increase their size. The massive blocks have a decidedly greater resistance to dynamic deformation, which made it possible to provide excellent handling on dry surfaces.
At the same time, they form a multitude of edges, thanks to which the tire demonstrates excellent traction and coupling properties on snowy surfaces. In addition, additional coupling edges are formed by special lamellas that are located on the surface of each block. Due to this, more reliable coupling with an icy road is ensured. At the same time, the tire tread is equipped with landing places for studs, the installation of which will make it possible to significantly increase the safety of movement on ice.
Long service life
In addition to good coupling, the massive tread blocks made it possible to significantly extend the service life of the tire. They contribute to a more even distribution of pressure over the contact patch, due to which the tread becomes more resistant to uneven wear. In addition, the rubber compound includes special components that provide the tread with increased resistance to abrasive wear.

Don't take this warranty. Bought these tires 5 years ago. Ran it bald without any issues. Bought a new set this year. 10,000 km in, two wheels went flat due to side wall punctures. I think I might have missed something. Bought two more of the same. 5,000 km in, two more side wall punctures.

For me the tyre is comfortable, shock-resistant (the rims were re-spoked several times), and handles well. With our roads you constantly hit potholes. I have driven about 50,000 km. It is mounted on the front axle of a Sobol. Maybe five years ago there were some issues, I don't know, for me it's normal.

Installed 225/75 R16 (previously ran on the homeland). The tire is super! I am very satisfied.
Already traveled around 70 thousand km. Wear - 50%. I drive both in winter and summer. Roadholding and durability are at the level.
Does not make noise, holds the road, is comfortable. On puddles - confidently. Honestly, I did not expect it. I did not plan to buy it, but was persuaded by the
