But I remember back in the day (PS4s are ancient now) when I swapped from Dunlop SportMaxx RT2s to PS4s and two things stood out - how much mechanical grip they have, and how long they take to warm up.
On cold mornings, they genuinely felt like track slicks. The Dunlops would be "warmed up" and gripping fine by the time I reached the main road - maybe half a mile.
The PS4s, on the other hand, would still feel twitchy and unpredictable halfway to work (~18 miles). It took a good 8-9 miles before they came in. And before they warm up, they are very on/off - loads of mechanical grip, but almost no compound grip, so they can suddenly let go.
The Nokian performs very well in both wet and dry conditions. In the dry, however, the car feels like it is floating (swimming) in the corners due to the tread sipes on the outer shoulder. The tyre is stable, but steering is not as direct as with other all\u2011season tyres or summer tyres. Wet grip is good.
I got the Nokian Outpost APT and they are amazing in snow, look great, have a long warranty, and a mild increase in road noise.
Tires are the Nokian Hakka R5 OEM tires from Tesla. (studless winter tires)
I'm just letting the car deal with traction, giving about 25% accelerator input.
I drove it last weekend in a Prius with three-peak mountain snowflake all weather tires (Nokian WRG-5). Like other all-weather tires, they're good in anything down to about -15°C and start to get skittish below that as the rubber hardens.
I did the same but went with a nokian tire. Love that tire. nokian is amazing. My ride improved and road noise was reduced.
I picked up a set of aftermarket rims and snow tires from Tire Rack and have been loving them for mountain trips and Local winter road travel.
I have Nokian Hakkapellita R5s on my winter-driven sports car and they are way too squishy and comfort-focussed.
I got Nokian wr d4 and they were manufactured in Russia around the 3rd year they were dry rotting and at year 5 chunks started to fall off the thread pattern.. which looks exactly the same..
We all know they are lackluster tires.
