They do fairly well on other terrains as well such as wet/mud/rocky/sand with my only minor complaint is that they love to pick up pebbles which tend to make an annoying tapping noise as they rotate
I went with Pirelli Cinturato Winter 2 -- they're decent.
Have had Hakkas on three prior vehicles as they've been my go to for years. Fantastic tires! Wanted them on the S3 but when I saw them in store I was shocked by the softness of the compound and was worried about treadwear.
Nokian Hakkapellitas if you've got the budget for them.
Blizzaks never failed me on my FWD Volvo V70 in the Rocky Mountains. Made it up Wolf Creek Pass in February through at least a foot of snow
One of the best tires on a Harley. Have had a problem in the past with 1 tire that was fitted on front for customer, but overall, really outstanding tire. The factory tires are also made by Dunlop, but the typical lifespan is around 3/4 of a Elite at best.
I have Nokian WRG5s on mine. The first set lasted 89,000 km - right to what they were supposed to. The new ones are rated good until 100,000. I've only got about 15,000km on these ones so too early to tell but tread depth is good.
As for the ride, it is very quiet and more comfortable with the larger sidewall vs the 22. The road noise is about the same as the OEM, which is good as I moved to a more aggressive AT tread, which I expected to be louder. It is surprisingly quiet.
my Nokian One's are better than the OEM Michelin Primacy and Michelin Pilot Sport A/S 4 that I tried.
I drove them through 3 winters and did pretty ok. Took them off at 30K because they were screaming around corners every time I turned and it was annoying. They had lost their good traction properties in wet conditions by that time anyways.
They ride like shit on the road, I’m sorry.
They blow. Not great in rain either.
