is it easy to differentiate snow tyres from regurlar tyres?

[Maserati]

I done tell all yuh in another thread they will wear down very very fast on hot tarmac, waste of $ for daily driving.

the thread often looks like this




and it usually has a lil marking on it of a snowflake or something suggesting snow as shown in (1)

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

thanks Duane 3NE 2NR. but which such thick rubber why does it wear so quickly if Maserati is correct. is the composition of the material itself different to those of normal tyres

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

^ the design of the tread and the compound of the rubber.
they are not designed for long wearing on tarmac as street radials are.

Most snow tyres that you find coming here on passenger vehicles or being sold used are M+S or mud and snow tyres - also shown in the diagram above

A friend of mine got these on his civic when it came RORO. He did not change them and ended up changing both front wheel bearings. They make a kinda rumbling noise on the road and a lot of harsh vibration.

the rumbling noise is because of the space between the lugs, the harsh vibration............ that car had it's problems before the tires were put on.

Dunae, you'r 1/2 right.

Snow tires only work well in Muddy Conditions.

If you had run RT09 with sown tires it would have been tragic, the tire does not have the compound to deal with hard and hot conditions. Further to that, the sideways action in those conditions will chunk out the tires, by the 4th stage grip will be a wish.

In the mud it will excel, not better than a rally tire, but better than a normal tire.

bench is correct ... i used m+s tires this year and found the street tires i used last year gave more grip.

[cornfused]

before the technology of street/strip tyres a few years ago in smallish hp application we found them to provide more grip than the typical radial (in a street acing application)

my father had some on our 910 bluebird once in trinidad. got them ona special.

looked strange, sounded funny and loud but lasted years.

well I wasnt talking about a rally car per se
If you are going to build a rally car then you should very well be using proper rally tyres depending on the surface.

thanks to duane i realise that i rolling on snow tyres i sell my rims and put on steels and i make out the grip on the tyres then saw the marking. i swear them thing riding like shiet

oh so dais why them fkn tyre done so fast.......M+S

[wagonrunner]

not all M & S wear the same. also don't think all M&S are "snow tires".
been using tires with that grading for some time now. i do think i get avg / better than avg life out of them.
they last almost a year. i'd say 50-60,000km.

[RuMS]

could anyone confirm if snow tyres are legal or illigal in TT?

[kjaglal76v2]

very legal, dais why bureau of standards doz seize dem

[RuMS]

For general information, I called the bureau of standards (Automotive unit in the Implementation division) and was told that snow, and mud and snow tyres are infact Legal.

Snow tyres with studs are illegal.
