Drilling Renault Logan. Tires for Renault Logan summer and winter

Renault Logan is one of the most popular foreign cars in Russia. An inexpensive foreign car has a good level of comfort and cross-country ability, as well as an increased service life. It is not surprising that spare parts for Renault Logan, including rims, are in great demand.

Mounting non-original discs is one of the most common and affordable tuning methods. That is why Renault Logan owners strive to fit custom wheels to stand out on the roads of the country. In addition, non-original discs can significantly improve the technical characteristics of the machine:

• reduce overall weight;
• improve handling;
• reduce wear on tires and chassis.

With the change of seasons, the owners of almost all cars are forced to "change the shoes" of their "iron horses". To do this, you should clearly know what size of tires to be replaced. This fact is also true for Renault Logan owners. This model is now rolling off assembly lines in six countries. Despite such "multinationality", for Renault Logan in the basic version there are always summer tires 185/65, for which the manufacturer uses R14 or R15 wheels.

Subtleties of specifics and sizes

The specifics of the production of the model we are considering provides for the presence of durable disks in the factory version, but they do not have a sufficient aesthetic appearance. This prompts many owners to resort to replacing these elements with their favorite counterparts. Also, owners are faced with the need for a passing replacement, and for this it is important to know what size of tires the model has. An important point here will be the correct selection of the tread pattern, which affects not only speed parameters, but also stability and noise.

To make the right choice and change disks or tires for summer or winter (sets), you must clearly follow certain rules.

1. The original disc contains data regarding the holes for the mounting studs, the center cut for the hub nut, etc.
2. The disc should have a landing radius variable between 14-15 inches.
3. Which tire size should be used: 180/70, 170/70 and 190/70 (all for R14 or R15).
4. The most suitable for Renault Logan so-called summer and winter tires are marked "80", which means
   load index. There is a mandatory speed marker - "T" here.
5. An extremely undesirable action would be the use of non-core tires.

In the standard version of Renault Logan, there are discs made of sheet steel. These products are preferred for winter riding. For the summer season, most owners tend to replace the factory "stampings" with more attractive light-alloy or forged wheel "rollers".

Fitting tubeless tires is also a popular measure today. Their standard size basically means 165/80 R14, but 175/70 or 185/70 mounting is allowed.

This size will perfectly match the discs marked "5.5Jx14".

For 6Jx15 wheels, which tire size is suitable? Those that have a dimension of 185/65 R15.

For a clear understanding of the essence of the designations, we give their decoding:

• the numbers "14" and "15" indicate the radius (in inches);
• "J5.5" or "J6" indicates the width of the rubber (also in terms of inches).

Based on the ciphers given above, we can specify any of the previously indicated rubber elements, namely:

• 165 or 185 - a parameter that determines the size of the width;
• 65, 70 or 80 - characteristic of the profile height, expressed as a percentage of the width;
• 14 or 15 are the radii of the discs.

What types of rubber to give preference to the owner of Renault Logan: R14 or R15?

When buying a specific car, the buyer should familiarize himself in detail with all the options available for his tires in the sizes, and understand what size of tires to buy. By choosing the optimal version in terms of parameters and comparing its data with the tires originally installed by the manufacturer, you can independently make the right decision.

Spiked rubber

Many are inclined to believe that studded winter tires are the top of the road in icy conditions. Is it really?

Studs in the tread provide confidence in braking performance on icy roads. On bare asphalt, this winter tire is prone to noise and has a much higher stopping distance. This circumstance is not a reason to purchase expensive summer tires with factory spikes. The procedure for installing spikes can actually be done with your own hand. Funds are saved, and the effect is identical.

All-season tires have always been the compromise solution. They are not suitable for energetic "pilots" and are associated with the risk of loss of stability during maneuvering. This option is more suitable for leisurely drivers. To achieve comfort combined with safety, you should purchase only well-chosen tire options.

Tires without spikes

If the operation of Renault Logan in the winter means the absence of heavy snowfalls or ice highways, then the rational solution would be to use tires with no spikes. Products armed with spikes will find it more difficult to cope with dry asphalt when braking or maneuvering in turning zigzags. This effect is due to a decrease in the contact area of ​​the tire and the road surface.

In the case of purchasing wheel tires that are not subject to studding, we recommend choosing in detail the type of tread pattern. The directional pattern will be more relevant for tires operating in southern regions, where wet snow is an attribute of winter weather. This feature of the tread is able to provide effective drainage of slush from under the contacting surface of the wheel, which significantly improves traction with the road surface.

How to choose winter tires?

Most often, tire owners change their tires during the off-season. Fitting the appropriate tires requires knowledge of wheel sizes.

1. Tires with parameters: 185/70 or 165/80 and a radius of R14 are optimal for 14-inch wheels.
2. For 15-inch elements, you can use tires with a dimension: 185/65 or 185/70 (both R15).

The manufacturer's regulation for inflating Renault Logan tires defines the pressure values ​​in the following values:

1. 2.0 bar (perimeter) if 14-inch wheels are installed;
2. 2.2 bar for aft tires and 2.0 bar for front tires (for R15).

In addition to the dimension factor, when buying tires for a Renault Logan car, it is necessary not to discount such important criteria as the material that the manufacturer has put into the structure, summer and winter tires differ in terms of softness and other properties, therefore each of these options must be applied in strict according to the belonging to a particular season. Summer, in contrast to what winter tires, are tougher, therefore, it hardens in frosty weather, which negatively affects stability.

Fans of innovation, inclined to buy all-season options, should be reminded that this type of tire can be safely operated at outdoor temperatures not exceeding minus 20 ° C.

Winter tires are more likely to protect the owner and his companions. Saving in this situation is inappropriate. The structure of winter rubber is based on the presence of wear-resistant rubber compounds that provide on the road:

• excellent adaptability to icy or snowy surfaces;
• minimum braking distance;
• safety and confidence in movement.

Summing up

In the direction of which type of tires (R14 or R15) to tip the scales, each individual Renault Logan owner decides. Do not forget about the correct provision of the required tire pressure, as well as the applicability of each type ("summer / winter") only during the corresponding season.

The size of the wheels in any car plays an important role. Despite the variety of wheel rim sizes, there are strict regulations for the selection and installation of these parts for each car. Renault, like any other car, is designed in such a way that the parameters of the R14 and R15 rims are an integral part of the chassis. The conversation in this article will focus on choosing the size of wheels for Renault, as well as choosing and installing a winter chain, the length of the bolts.

Selection by parameters

The design bureau of the Renault plant has provided wheel sizes for its cars of 15 and 14 inches. In addition to these parameters, you need to add width and overhang, as well as disc bolt pattern and bolt length. We will indicate all parameters in a separate list below.

The parameters of the wheel on the Logan should be exactly the same.

• The recommended parameter is R14, R15 (14 and 15 inches).
• The allowable bolt pattern is 4x100.
• Wheel rim width - 5 / 5J, 6J.
• Departure of the mating plane - ET43, ET
• Hub bore diameter - DIA1.

To clarify this data, we have collected all the information so that the reader does not have unnecessary questions, and also talk about why R14 and R15.

1. Logan wheel radius is a stipulated value adopted by the automotive standard and is denoted by the Latin letter "R", respectively, the wheel parameter will look like this: R14 or R This abbreviation stands for the diameter divided by two, respectively, the wheel size is 15 or 14 inches.
2. The word bolt pattern has been heard by many car owners, but not everyone can give a clear definition of this term. Ramping is the distance between the centers of two bolt holes. Example - 4x100, the number 4 indicates the number of holes for the mounting bolts, the number 100 indicates the distance between two opposite holes.
3. The width of the wheel is measured in inches and is indicated on the back of it, the letter - J. Therefore, this designation will look like this: 5 / 5J, means the width of the wheel is 5.5 inches.
4. The mating plane overhang is the distance between the disc landing area and the edge of its inner rim. This parameter is measured in millimeters and is referred to as ET. The higher the ET number, the more the disc is recessed into the wheel arch.
5. As for the diameter of the hub bore, it is also measured in millimeters and is designated by three letters of the Latin alphabet - DIA.

These data should not be neglected when choosing wheels for Renault Logan, otherwise serious problems may arise during the operation of this car. Also, do not neglect the size of the hub diameter, as serious wheel runout can occur.

Bolts

Carefully select the bolts for light alloy wheels, as the length of the bolts for them is different. Punching bolts are shorter than alloy bolts.

As a rule, the length of the bolts ranges from 3.5 cm to 8 cm.

Why exactly 14 and 15?

Every automaker sets certain standards for their cars, and Renault Logan is no exception. It was for him that the factory provided a wheel size of 14 and 15 inches, suitable for this model. If you use other wheel sizes instead of R14 and R15, you can significantly reduce the quality of handling and driving comfort of the car.

R14 is the standard solution for lean trim levels, but R15 is already equipped with expensive cars.

Using larger wheels can damage the wheel arches, wheel arches and other body parts. The dynamics of the car, as well as its economical qualities, can be negatively reflected. Generally speaking, the use of non-standard solutions leads to negative consequences.

Choosing winter chains on Renault

In harsh winters, Russian motorists prefer to use winter chain kits to increase their vehicle's cross-country ability. Renault Logan owners also prefer these solutions for their car and opt for the standard size R14 and R15. Chains really contribute to the easier passage of the car in difficult situations.

Choose parts that fit the size of your vehicle.

The main criterion for choosing a winter chain is the quality of workmanship, as well as the assembly of chain elements. A wide range of these solutions for the front and rear axles of the vehicle is offered on the shelves of car dealerships.

The chains should be stored in a dry place so that corrosion does not overcome them.

These details really help the car when driving in deep snow. The only drawback of this solution is the maximum permissible speed of movement, as well as the complexity of installation. It is about the installation of chains on Renault Logan that will be discussed later.

Installation

Wear chains only in harsh conditions, it is FORBIDDEN to ride on asphalt with chains!

1. To install the chain element on the Renault, it is necessary to lay it in front of the car wheel, and then hit it over to fix the lock.
2. To carry out the fastening, wrap the wheel in such a way that the locks close, having previously released the pressure in the tires.
3. Secure the chain locks and restore the pressure in the wheel.

This process is the same on R14 and R15 wheels. The installation is complete. This operation is carried out in the same way on the front and rear axles of the vehicle.

Outcomes

Based on the foregoing, one conclusion can be drawn: do not neglect the technical tolerances of your car and do not allow the installation of non-standard solutions. Use R14 and R15 as standard, which should not be avoided. Buy quality parts from well-known manufacturers. We urge you to listen to our opinion and make the right choice.

The change of seasons forces the owners of Renault Logan to "change the shoes" of their cars. But for this, first of all, you need to know the "shoe size" of your "horse". Today this model is assembled in six different countries. However, despite this, the basic configuration always has wheels, the dimension of which is 185/65, and the rim diameter corresponds to r14 or r15.

Specificity and dimensions

Given the specifics of Renault Logan assembly, motorists are forced to change wheels (14 or 15 inches) immediately after buying a vehicle. Since the automaker installs durable, though absolutely not aesthetically pleasing, the owner replaces the wheels with those that he likes best. However, a more aesthetic option is not always suitable for a given model. The level of rustling on the asphalt and fuel consumption depend on the tread pattern r14 or r15. That is why, when changing standard tires (14 or 15), or wheels on a car, you must strictly adhere to certain requirements.

1. The original disc contains the available bolt holes, the diameter of the center (main) hole, and other relevant information.
2. The disc must have a rim not exceeding 15 inches but not less than 14.
3. Tires with a tread width of 180/70, 170/70, 190/70 r14 or r15 may be suitable for use.
4. The most suitable tires for Renault Logan are designated by the number 80, which means the load index, and also the letter "T", which is the speed index.
5. The use of non-core tires is not recommended.

The standard discs for this model are conventional stamping at r14 or r15 (14 or 15, respectively), made of sheet steel. They are trying to replace it with forged or light-alloy wheels. However, in winter, many drivers prefer stamped wheels.

Logan manufacturers install tubeless tires with a size of 165/80 r14. Also, 175/70 r14 are allowed for installation, respectively, 185/70 r14.

This dimension is perfect for discs with the designation 5.5Jx14. It is recommended to install tires with dimensions 185 / 65r15 on 6Jx15 wheels. To understand the designations found in the catalogs, you should familiarize yourself with their decoding:

• 14-15 - indicates the diameter;
• J5.5-6 - Shows the width in inches.

Based on this, the size of the tires can be deciphered as follows:

• 165, 185 - their width;
• 65, 70, 80 - indicate the percentage of the profile width;
• 14-15 is the corresponding diameter.

According to the regulations, the optimum tread depth is 1.6 mm. The safest option is 2 mm. Which tires are better for this car, r14 or r15 (14 or 15 inches)?

When purchasing a car, the buyer should familiarize himself with the tire sizes that are best suited for Renault Logan, comparing them with those established by the manufacturer. This will make it possible to more realistically represent the total amount, including the additional installation of a navigation device and climate control.

Studded tires

Many believe that Renault Logan's studded "shoes" are a panacea for icy roads. Is this true?

Studded tires have high braking performance on icy surfaces. However, it drives too noisy on bare asphalt, and its braking distance is significantly increased. Therefore, spike tires are really winter tires.

This does not mean the need to spend fabulous money. By spiking the tires yourself, you can get the same effect, saving you a lot.

All season tires are a compromise for all seasons. True, for energetic drivers, such rubber is a huge risk. It is better suited for unhurried housewives who travel no more than 80 km / h even on dry surfaces. Therefore, in order for the ride to be comfortable and safe, you need to correctly select tires.

Non-studded tires

If you live in areas where the road is covered with the thinnest layer of light snow in winter, and heavy snowfalls are rare, non-studded tires are an excellent option. It is more difficult for a car “shod” in studded tires to enter corners, and even more so to brake on a dry road. This is due to a decrease in the area of ​​contact with the surface.

When buying non-studded rubber, you should pay special attention to the tread pattern.

For southern regions with roads covered with sleet, it is better to choose a directional pattern - "herringbone". Such tires have the ability to drain slush from under the wheels, significantly improving traction.

Choosing winter tires

Logan's tires are not always changed after purchase. Much more often this is done when their integrity is violated or when the seasons change. To install the right rubber, you need to know exactly the size required for Renault. So, the "leg" of the Frenchman is not too big, the following tires will fit on it:

• with 14-inch disks, tires 185/70 or 165/80 r14 are perfect
• on 15-inch, you can put 185/65 or 185/70 r15.

According to the manufacturer's instructions, Renault Logan tires are allowed to pressurize:

• for r14 in front and rear wheels 2.0;
• for r15 - 2.2 in the rear wheels, and 2.0 in the front.

Besides the right size, there are many factors to consider when choosing tires for your Logan. Since the material from which standard summer tires are made differs significantly from that used for winter tires, it is recommended that each of them be used in a certain season. Considering that summer tires have a high stiffness, which increases in cold weather, the tires need to be changed in late autumn. Those who want to save money and buy, all-season tires can be said that they are safe only at temperatures not exceeding -20.

Winter tires will allow you to better protect yourself and the lives of loved ones. Here, savings are inappropriate, since the safety of the ride will depend on the quality of the tires. The main elements of winter tires are wear-resistant rubber treads, which contribute to:

• excellent performance on icy and snowy surfaces;
• minimum braking distance;
• safe movement on winter roads.

Summarize

Of course, which tires r14 or r15 is better is up to you. However, the main rule for choosing tires for Renault Logan is compliance with the pressure and dimension of the tires. This will help avoid unforeseen problems.

The following two tabs change content below.

I own a Renault Megan 2 car, before that there were Citroens and Peugeots. I work in the service area of ​​a dealership, so I know the car's structure "inside and out." You can always ask me for advice.

14th radius standard wheels

The first parameter that you should pay attention to is the height and width of the tire, and in this regard the manufacturer (gives clear recommendations on which tire size is intended for cars with a specific wheel size. This is one of the most popular methods.

In the case of using wheels with a diameter of 15 inches, tires of the following parameters are used: 185/65 R15.

And in the case when the wheels have a standard 14th radius, the size will be: 165/80 R14, 185/70 R14.

Standard wheels of 15th radius

• R14 - 5.5H2 ET 43 DIA 60.1 PDL 100 × 4.
• R15 - 6J15 ET 50 DIA 60.1 PDL 100 × 4.

What to look for when choosing summer tires for Renault Logan?

First of all, you need to remember that the more expensive the tire, the better it will be and, accordingly, more durable. In the manufacture of tires of expensive brands, advanced and modern technologies are used, which only have a positive effect on its operation. Thus, we can say with confidence that the price is the determining factor in the choice of tires!

Tires with this pattern have both disadvantages and advantages. The most fundamental advantages are low cost and operational reliability. And the disadvantages include the lowest efficiency indicators, in contrast to tires equipped with a directional and asymmetrical pattern.

This type of tire has its own peculiarity, since the pattern has a certain direction, such tires should be installed only in a certain direction, which is indicated by the arrow on the tire body. The disadvantage of such a tire is the impossibility of rearranging them from one side to the other and vice versa, since in this case the driving performance of the car will deteriorate significantly and tire wear will be significantly increased.

Tires of this type have the peculiarity of installing the tires in a certain way. There is an inscription on each side of the tire:

• IN Side- the side must be directed towards the inside of the machine.
• OUT Side- this one should look outward.

If these rules are neglected, tire wear will increase and performance will deteriorate while driving.

Which summer tires are better (poll)?

What to look for when choosing winter tires?

In the same way as in the choice of summer tires - the price and the manufacturer are the main indicators in its choice. Further, winter tires are studded and so-called "Velcro".

The best winter tires of the season 2015/2016 Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8.

The main indicator here is the number of spikes on the rubber and the quality of the rubber itself. After all, these indicators are very important when the car moves on an icy and snowy roadway.

conclusions

As you could see for yourself, knowing all the necessary parameters for your car, you should approach the choice of tires on a purely individual basis, based on your own needs, wealth and goals. It is important to remember only one thing, that it is not worth saving on those elements of the car on which traffic safety directly depends.
