The primary "target audience" for the Kirov K-153 all-season tire are owners of "UAZ" brand vehicles and their numerous modifications. This model cannot be attributed to the novelties of the domestic tire industry. Nevertheless, the solutions used in it are distinguished not so much by simplicity as by high efficiency, which allows this tire to remain a relevant tire product to this day. Additionally, the extremely attractive cost combined with good technical characteristics makes the purchase of this tire even more beneficial.
Good highway performance
A characteristic feature of this non-directional tread is the design of its central longitudinal rib. It consists of a large number of massive blocks with a complex shape with multiple angles and sharp edges. Due to the presence of rigid bridges between them, this rib has excellent resistance to deformation, which in turn gives the tire increased efficiency when driving on the highway.
Excellent longitudinal traction properties
In turn, outside of paved roads, numerous tread blocks come into play. On the one hand, they are distinguished by massive sizes, and on the other hand, by optimized placement. During movement, they form a multitude of S-shaped traction edges that stretch across the entire tread. This allows the tire to demonstrate excellent longitudinal traction properties, as well as high resistance to uneven wear.
Main features of the Kirov K-153 tire
- the continuous design of the central longitudinal rib, consisting of multiple blocks connected by rigid bridges, increases the tire's performance on the highway without compromising its passability;
- a multitude of massive blocks of a polygonal shape provide the tire with excellent traction properties on any type of surface;
- the elastic rubber compound at low temperatures allows for confident movement on winter roads.
