How to choose the right tires for a van

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Wheel

In this video we see how to choose the best tires for our van: we start by looking at the size indicated on the existing ones. The first number indicates the width of the tread in mm, the second the height of the tire, the letter indicates the type of tire and the number the diameter of the rim expressed in inches. Tires for commercial vehicles often have the letter "C", the load index and then indications on whether they are summer or winter tires. As for the measurements, we are bound to what is indicated in the circulation booklet. Instead, the load index can be higher with the same measurements, so if we know that we will be working at the limit, we definitely choose a more resistant tire; an all-terrain tire can be valid for dirt roads. Preferences for summer, winter, or all-season tires depend on where you work. A winter tire does not necessarily mean snow, but better grip on wet, damp, or cold roads. If we want to always be in compliance, all-season tires are excellent, especially if you work a lot between the city and the outskirts.
