How To Choose The Right Hyundai Creta Tyres?

Hyundai Creta has a booming presence in the Indian market. Hyundai is focusing on the evolution of smart, advanced and future-ready technologies. Selecting the correct set of Creta tyres can optimise your vehicle's overall performance, including safety and fuel efficiency. Tyres are the only contact between the road surface and the car. Therefore, it is foremost that you choose a good set of tyres for your car as they improve the vehicle's acceleration, braking and handling quality.

Following are some factors that should keep in mind before getting a new set of tyres for your Hyundai Creta:

1. Tyre Size

When purchasing new tyres, precise observation should be paid to the size. And to do that, you must understand how to read the tyre size. It is usually stamped on the tyre's sidewall and expressed in a homogenised method. For example, 215/65 R 16 87V. It can read like this:

 215 (mm) is the tread width  65 (%) is the tread width ratio to the height of the sidewall. R (Radial) implicates the radial design of the tyre 16 (inches) cites to the wheel diameter. Tire size can be expressed in three parts; rim size, tread width and side height.

a) Rim size: When selecting a tyre, it has to be kept in mind that the rim size is the same as the tyre. If the rim size is larger than the tyres, it will reduce the sidewall height, negatively affecting your vehicle's ride quality and performance.

b) Tread width: Tread width should be chosen with utmost care as it is liable for the vehicle's performance on the road. The tread width will depend on the type of driver and, of course, the type of vehicle. For instance, if the car produces more power and the driver has the habit of cornering at high speed, then wider treads are required. If the driver prefers the fuel economy or the travelling is mainly in city traffic the less general impressions are needed.

c) Side height: Once the correct rim size and tread width are selected, select sidewall height that will help keep the overall dimensions of your new tyre similar to your old tyre.

2. Tubeless or tube-type: When choosing between tube-type and tubeless tyres, they should be given preference because they have superior technology and are much safer than tube-type tyres.

3. Tread Pattern: Selecting a tread pattern is also an important job. Tyre treads play an essential part in the complete experience of driving. It is accountable for how the vehicle behaves in divergent conditions. For example, it is designed to channel away water when driving in flooded conditions.

a) Uni-Directional tread: This type of tread pattern performs in one direction. The tyre's side wall has an arrow defining the direction of rotation.

b) Asymmetric Tread: This type of tread pattern has inside and outside of sidewall. This pattern assists in a high-speed manoeuvre. 

Rubber Compound: The rubber compound used to manufacture the tyre is the essential benchmark to keep in mind before purchasing. It is accountable for the traction and wears characteristics of the tire. If you buy tyres manufactured from a suitable quality compound, the traction and control of the tyres will be high. It also reduces the tyre's sound while driving, giving a smooth drive experience.
