Nokian R5 SUVs. They got me out of everything last winter threw at me. And I had AWD before and live in a hilly area too.
I have nokian wr4 at my Golf ITS a very good tire
I have the [WR G4s ](https://www.discounttire.com/buy-tires/nokian-tire-wr-g4/p/88453) and they're great. They're pretty quiet and they do not have a lot of drag. I'm a big fan of Nokian Tyres and have bought them on 3 vehicles now.
Love my Nokian One tires! 60% tread left at 20,000 miles and got me through a winter
In the winter im running the newest Nokian Hakkapeliitta's (9 now getting the 10 after the next winter).
I got a great deal on Bridgestone Weatherpeak at Costco. I felt very confident driving them in torrential rains last week.
Nokian Hakkapeliitta's with studs, you could climb a tree with them! By far, the best special winter only tires period, full stop!
Bought these tires for my Mazda 3 after one of my OEM Bridgestone EL440’s got pregnant(sidewall bulge), and I plugged a puncture in the other one. Decided to just replace the tires completely.
So far I’m happy with them.
Pros:
- Severe snow rating so they are legally snow tires in my state(for mountain passes and stuff), and I’m guessing the snow traction is way better. They are still all season tires though.
- Seems to be a softer ride overall even on the stock 18” side.
- XL sidewall strength, vs the stock tires being standard. Should help with those sidewall issues.
- They seem fairly quiet as far as noise.
- $150 rebate in addition to being fairly cheap
Cons:
- These are definitely not for those people who want sporty handling, they don’t really feel like a sport tire, and are more of a touring road tire.
- I’ve heard the treadwear isn’t the best(makes sense with the snow rating)
They are lovely road tires. For anything off-road? Not so much.
Those tires are very low quality. Rubber is not soft and flexible enough to create proper friction.
