Safe driving requires car tires, as the pressure in the Lada Grant's tires changes. Their size must correspond to the recommended pressure ratings. Since checking this parameter is an important point, a special device is used for this - a pressure gauge. It serves to measure the pressure level. In this case, the results obtained should be compared with the recommended values.

It is important to use only high-precision pressure gauges with the smallest declared error. If, during the measurements, a pressure is detected that is less than the recommended one, then this can cause accelerated tire wear, deterioration of the vehicle's handling and stability, since the wheel alignment angles also change.

The tire pressure, which is recommended by the manufacturer, is indicated in the tables. It is measured in kg / m² in front and rear tires at partial and full load. The tables show the pressure in the tires of the car Lada Granta sedan and liftback. The size of the tires depends on the configuration, which is divided into luxury, norm and standard.

It should be borne in mind that the air pressure in, the equipment of which belongs to the standard category, is different from other similar indicators of the standard or luxury versions. The difference is expressed in one hundredth. The first version is equipped with smaller wheels.

The ideal option is to maintain this level of this indicator, which was set by the manufacturer. Partial load assumes that no more than 3 adults are in the car, as well as the absence of luggage or cargo in it. If the trunk has a load weighing 50 kg, and there are 3 or more people in the car, this assumes full load.

Similar tables are provided by the manufacturer in car interiors and liftbacks. The location of the table is the B-pillar on the side of the driver's seat.

When the car is moving, the indicator also increases. It is possible to correctly check the air pressure in the tires of a Lada Granta car only using a pressure gauge. Moreover, the level of their temperature and ambient air should have the same value.

How to properly check tire pressure?

The appearance of the tires of the Lada Granta car can be normal even at a reduced level of the parameter. It is impossible to judge this parameter by external signs. Measurements should be taken to verify that it complies with the recommended values.

The pressure in the tires of any car, including the Lada Granta, cannot be constant, regardless of whether it is winter tires on wheels or summer tires. In conditions of elevated temperature, the indicator increases. If it is lowered, then the pressure experienced by winter tires drops.

Tire pressure should be constant regardless of weather conditions

With a temperature difference ranging from 10 ° C to 15 ° C, this parameter should be checked. it is almost invisible, since winter tires do not heat up due to freezing air and low temperatures of the road surface.

In summer, tires do not cool well due to warm airflow and hot road surfaces. These factors increase the reading by 0.2-0.3 bar. To reduce it, you need to prepare a compressor or pump, as well as a pressure gauge. All actions must have a certain sequence.

Safe driving on any car will directly depend on the condition of the wheels. It is important not to allow the tires to wear out quickly.

How to take measurements correctly to increase the service life of Lada Grants?

A certain complete set of Lada Granta cars has corresponding standards, which are characterized by their own level of the investigated parameter.

If the pressure in the tires while driving the Lada Granta car is not in accordance with the manufacturer's recommended standards, then the wheels of this model will undergo premature wear.

If the parameters of the tires have changed significantly, they should be checked for gas leaks.

If there is a noticeable drop in the indicator, the tires should be checked for air leaks. It is possible that this is the only reason, then the spool is tightened or simply replaced with a new one. If it is found that the spool is in good condition, and the pressure has decreased, then the reason may lie in a malfunction of the tire. Perhaps its special protective layer has been depressurized, then its dismantling is carried out with a special device.

If the wheel balancing has been checked, which has remained normal, then dismantling should be started from the mark on the tire of a special place where the valve is located. After all work has been carried out, the tire must be fitted according to the mark.

For more even tire wear, the wheels should be rearranged every 30 thousand kilometers. To this end, the following actions are carried out:

1. Inspect the Lada Grant tires with disks to make sure that there are no cuts, delamination of the rubber tires.
2. Check the steel cord for areas that are prone to corrosion due to moisture penetration.
3. The caps on the wheels must be unscrewed to check the tire pressure.
4. If it is found that the indicator is more than required, then press on the tip of the spool so that a certain part of the air is released from the tire.
5. Then the indicator is measured again.
6. With a constant drop in the indicator, using a cap and a key, the spool is wrapped as tightly as possible.
7. To check the spool for leaks, moisten the valve opening.
8. If air bubbles appear, the spool on the wheel must be replaced.
9. Measuring the residual tread depth of the tire with a caliper, it is replaced if the depth of the device is 1.6 mm or less.

In the absence of a caliper, the depth can be checked visually in accordance with the tire wear parameters, which may appear as stripes located across the tread. The wheels are tightened if necessary.

When preparing the Lada Granta for use in winter, it is imperative to replace the tires used in the summer with winter tires. Winter tires must be used without fail if the car is not planned to be mothballed for the cold season.

For safe and comfortable driving, you should periodically check the tire pressure. For each brand and size of tires, the factory recommends a certain recommended value of air pressure. Since it is impossible to determine by eye that the pressure corresponds to the recommended value, specialized instruments are used to measure it - manometers. Use only quality products with a lower declared error.

To measure the pressure in the Lada Granta tires, unscrew the protective cap from the nipple (valve):

Now check the pressure with a pressure gauge. Also, a pressure gauge can be built into your pump. Check that the pressure is within the recommended value. In case of deviation from the norm, bring the pressure to the recommended value. br />

If the tire pressure is too high, bleed the air to the recommended value by pressing the metal rod in the center of the tire valve.

Do not forget to refit the protective caps on the valves at the end of the work.

Why monitor pressure?

Tires with high or low pressure tend to wear unevenly. As a result, the vehicle's handling may be noticeably impaired or a sudden rupture may occur. This can lead to an emergency at high speed.

Correct tire pressure is a very important aspect of safe driving. Although this indicator can be called relative, since it indicates the ratio of the proportion of air to volume, and does not simply measure its amount in the tire. But such measurements should be carried out constantly, because systematic monitoring will ensure the safety while driving and the durability of the car's components. Measurements are carried out using a special device called a pressure gauge. They come in different types and different accuracy classes. Therefore, for permanent use, it is worth choosing a high-quality device with a high accuracy class.

The cars of the domestic manufacturer Lada Granta are popular even nowadays. This is because the price for them is low, and even an average family with an average income can afford such a car. The value for money is roughly the same, although some Lada models still receive a lot of negative feedback on the forums. The owners of such cars often do not think about which pressure standards should be observed. They don't even know where such parameters are indicated. Similar information can be found in the operation book. There the manufacturer describes which indicators are suitable for which modification. Information about the tire sizes suitable for such cars and the number of atmospheres for each of the options are also indicated.

Tire pressure gauge

In 13-inch tires, the allowable limit at partial load is 1.9 atmospheres. And when fully loaded, they increase to 2.1 bar on the rear tires. But already the wheels, which have a dimension of 14 inches, need to be inflated to 2.0 bar. With the maximum load of the car, the indicators should be 2.2 Bars on the tires of the rear axle. The total carrying capacity of the vehicle is 475 kilograms.

On a note.

After the tires of the car are inflated at the tire service, it is advisable to check the atmosphere level with your own pressure gauge upon arrival home.

Very often, employees of such organizations do not bother and pump all tires up to 2.0 bar. And such indicators can be overestimated or underestimated for a particular car brand. Therefore, the pumping should be controlled independently. Incorrect pressure can cause many problems. For example, under-inflated tires can lead to:

• quick erasure of side protectors on rubber;
• overheating of tires and their premature deterioration;
• violation of car controllability, especially when cornering;
• excessive consumption of fuel.

There are some advantages of under-inflated tires:

• soft car ride;
• lack of noise and rattling inside the car.

But the disadvantages clearly outweigh all the advantages. In order not to spend money on new tires later, it is better to adhere to acceptable standards.

Inflated wheels also do not have a very good effect on the condition of the components and parts of the car:

• the suspension wears out quickly;
• the middle protector on the rubber is erased;
• the car goes hard;
• in the cabin you can hear a rattling and feel all the bumps and potholes on the road.

The plus is only in fuel economy, but you shouldn't be too happy about this fact. The disadvantages here clearly outweigh all the advantages.

It is necessary to take pressure measurements only after a three-hour inactivity of the car after a trip, on cold tires.

Tire pressure table "Lada"

The pressure in the wheels "Lada" in the winter

In winter and summer, the pressure inside the tire changes due to temperature changes in the environment. For example, in summer, when it is very hot, the air inside the tire heats up and its volume increases. Therefore, the wheels must not be pumped a little, by about 0.3 atmospheres. And in winter, exactly the opposite happens. Due to the low temperature, the volume of air in the tire decreases, and therefore they should be pumped also by 0.3 atmospheres.

Where the vehicle is located is very important. If it stands in a warm room, then when measuring the pressure, the pressure gauge will show the optimal readings. But if you go outside in frosty weather, the tire performance will drop by about 0.4 bar. And the car will already go on under-pumped tires, and this is unsafe. Therefore, the wheels should be pumped up in the garage and the rates should be slightly overestimated, since they fall in the cold.

On a note.

Another factor is the congestion of the vehicle. If the wheels are already pumped up to the required parameters, taken into account in the cold, and the car is loaded to the maximum, in this case, you also need to take into account the manufacturer's recommendations regarding indicators with increased workload. As a result, it turns out that it is necessary to pump it taking into account the decrease in pressure in the cold and at maximum load.

Fans of "Lada Kalina" station wagon often do not think about changes in tire pressure at different times of the year. For such cars, the optimal performance is 2.2 atmospheres on the wheels of the front axle, and 2.3 on the rear. Most drivers agree with these manufacturer's recommendations and do not notice any severe discomfort while driving. But in winter, many deviate from these standards. In cold weather, the front tires are inflated to 2.0 bar, and the rear tires to 2.2 bar. This is taking into account the fact that the tires on the car are factory-made. If the car is changed into wide-profile tires, then the pressure indicators increase. There should be 2.4 Bars in the front and 2.5 Bars in the back. Low profile and narrow tires require 1.9-2.0 ATM on the front axle, and 2.0-2.2 on the rear.

Kalina

Sedan "Lada" Vesta has a higher maximum carrying capacity than previous model... The lifting capacity index is up to 615 kilograms. The instructions indicate pressure parameters equal to 2.1 atmospheres, both for the front wheels and for the rear. With increasing load, the rear wheels are pumped up to 2.2 bar. Such indicators are typical for R15 and R16 tires. But in winter it is better to keep the pressure within 2.2 bar. The manufacturer recommends measuring the amount of air in the tire at least once a week. And also such an event must be carried out before a long trip.

The pressure in the tires "Lada Vesta Cross" has slightly different parameters. Factory wheels on the car are R17, so the front wheels require pumping up to 2.2 atmospheres, and the rear wheels up to 2.4. But if tires of a different size are installed, then you need to be guided by the general pressure table "Lada".

Fans of the Largus model should be aware that the atmospheric readings in this car are higher than in the previous models under review. The pressure in the Largus wheels for R14 and R15 tires is 2.4 bar at the front axle, and 2.6 at the rear. But the owners of such cars note that with such parameters, the car drives very hard, therefore, the recommended readings are often underestimated. At the same time, there is no strong wear of the rubber. But you should not get carried away with underestimation, as this can lead to a bunch of problems. If the driver is fond of fast driving, then lowering the pressure by 1.0 bar will be fully justified. The rubber heats up at high speed, and the air volume increases, so such a decrease will not affect it.

"Lada Hatchback"

Indicators of tire pressure for "Lada Liftback" in the summer

The manufacturer's hint for optimum pressure can be found on the B-pillar of the driver's door. According to her, the number of atmospheres in such a car should be 2.0 atmospheres on all four wheels with a minimum load. The maximum load of the car provides for a change in indicators to 2.2 bar on the rear axle and 2.0 bar on the front.

In the summer, if the car is in a cool garage, the indicators will be the same, and when the car goes out into the heat, the amount of air in the tire will increase. Therefore, before the trip, it is worth lowering the pressure by about 0.3 bar. So it will be possible to achieve the most correct parameters that are declared by the manufacturer. The most important thing in this case is to monitor the behavior of the machine. If the car skids on a bend or an excessive fuel consumption was noticed, then immediately you need to check the pressure and bring it to optimal performance. Otherwise, you will have to buy new parts and tires.

Correctly inflated tires

The pressure check should be carried out systematically by the driver. If you constantly forget about such a trifle, then it can entail many consequences. Moving by car on a busy highway with wrong pressure, you can endanger not only yourself but also other drivers and pedestrians.

LADA Granta- a budget car of Russian production. The front-wheel drive sedan was highly appreciated by the drivers. Attractive appearance, calm and dynamic ride, roomy trunk, comfortable interior, good noise insulation and specifications- this is not a complete list of its advantages. The manufacturer took into account the peculiarities of domestic roads and developed a car that behaves well on them.

Like any other car, this one requires careful attention. During operation, it is necessary to change not only consumables, but also to monitor the condition of the wheels. The air pressure that is inside allows them to perform their functions qualitatively. Under the influence of certain factors, it changes over time. An increase occurs after movement, a decrease in the cold season.

It is necessary to measure regularly. It is ideal to do this every day, but, as practice shows, not everyone succeeds. It will be enough to check the condition of the tires once a week. The indicator depends on the size of the wheels and the load of the car. Information about what pressure should be in the Lada Granta Sedan is given in the form of a table.

Dimensions and inflation pressure in tires LADA Granta sedan

Tire pressure Lada Granta Liftback

* Partial load - when there are no more than 3 adults in the car, there is no load in the trunk.

Full load - when there are 3 or more people in the car and there is a load of 50 kg in the trunk.

* Tightening torque of wheel bolts 70-90 N * m

During the winter season, tire pressure is reduced by 7 kPa (1 psi) for every 7 ° C (12 ° F) decrease in temperature.

There is a debate among motorists about how much pressure should be on the car "Lada Kalina", "Grant" or any other model of this Russian manufacturer. Some look in the passport and inflate the tires in accordance with the standard values, others try several options for the pressure in the wheels.

It can be said unambiguously that the pressure in the Grants, Kalina or Priora tires affects the chassis, affects fuel consumption, and also promotes or prevents rapid tire wear.

Standard values ​​of pressure in wheels

There are 3 options for the state of the wheel pressure in the "Lada":

• underestimated. There is an increase in the contact of the surface of the "Grants", "Priora" or "Kalina" wheels with the road surface, which accelerates the wear of the product. Fuel is consumed faster and braking distance is longer;
• overpriced. The wheels of the car are less in contact with the road surface, which increases the likelihood of a quick repair of the chassis. The wheel wear rate also increases. At the same time, the vehicle's handling at high speed or tight turns is impaired. Passengers and the driver feel that travel in the car becomes less comfortable - the car bounces even on small bumps;
• normal. Under such pressure is meant an indicator that is in the range of 5-15% of what is indicated on the car or in the passport. In this case, the tires wear out evenly. Being in the car while driving on uneven road surfaces or off-road is comfortable.

Features of wheel pumping

To ensure comfortable and safe driving "Kalina" in winter and summer, it is necessary to measure the degree of inflation of the wheels with a mechanical or electronic pressure gauge.

Permissible air pressure in the tires of Lada Priora cars

You will also see the optimal inflation mode in the table given by each tire manufacturer. The values ​​in it are adjusted depending on:

• the number of passengers, luggage;
• car models (indicators of "Grants", "Priors" and other models of "Lada" differ depending on their weight).

Remember to maintain the same pressure in both winter and summer.

Recommended tire pressure of Lada Granta cars

However, there is a nuance: if Lada Kalina has been in a warm garage or service station for a long time, get ready for a slight decrease in wheel pumping after driving out into the cold.

Thus, you will have to pump up the tires of your car more often in the cold season.

The standard value of the pressure indicator in the front and rear wheels for the "Lada Kalina" should be as follows:

• for the VAZ-1117 model - 1.9 atm on the front and rear wheels at partial load, as well as 1.9 / 2.1 on the front and rear wheels at full load;
• for the VAZ-1118 model - 1.9 or 2 atm at partial load, as well as from 1.9 to 2.2 atm at full load on the front and rear wheels, respectively;
• for the VAZ-1119 model - 2 atm at partial and 2 / 2.2 atm at full load on the front and rear wheels, respectively.

Permissible air pressure in the tires of Lada-Kalina

Experts call the presence of up to 3 people in the car's cabin a partial load of Priora, Grants or another Lada model, provided that the trunk is not loaded. Full load - the maximum possible number of passengers in the car and cargo in the trunk (weighing less than 50 kg).

If you want to know the inflation rates of the wheels, wait until they cool down (after a long trip or being in the sun). This will make the gauge readings more accurate.
