In California and my continental control sport srs did great today with this rain actually impressed that I didn’t slide at all.
If this is your first time, yes get some studded tires, something like a Hakkapelitta.
My little car, a fwd Ford Focus has non studded Hakkapelittas.
We drive a FWD minivan or a RWD truck - both with good winter tires, Michelin X-ice on the minivan, Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT3 non-studded on the truck.
My all season Continental tires are great in the winter.
I have Nokian Hakkapelitta studded tires and they\u2019ve been amazing the last 2 years living in Banff and I have a RWD car, drove to Calgary and back plenty of times, in snow storms and have driven to Jasper and BC in the winter with no issues.
Studded Nokian Hakkapelitta are awesome best snow tires i have had and as far studded tires increasing stopping in wet I have never noticed it and I believe it is minimal if any especially with the modern studded technology
Yes they are worth it. I\u2019ve had all types of winter tires. But the studded nokian hakkas are insane. Literally transformative.
Just got a set of Seasonproof 1's. Stamped (4823) made in China. will report back if they rot.
VW/Audi has been mounting these on some Audi SUV's at the factory. I went to two reputable tire stores, and they both corroborated the weakness of this specific tire; due to weak sidewall strength. They are like marshmallows. Any competent driver who has sporting blood can sense how poorly large vehicles handle with these model tires.
