I purchased a winter tire and wheel set from Tire Rack tires week and couldn't be happier. Tires: Nokian Hakkapelitta R5 - 275/60-20
Those are good tires but way too heavy at 44lbs vs 24lbs for stock tires.They will kill your mileage and performance. I went with Firestone destination at2 in 235/65 r17. Only a few pounds more (28lbs) than stock and they perform great!
I have Nokian Nordman 7 as a dedicated winter tire. Really good. Long wearing. High profile from factory. Good grip. Not too much noise.
I put Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5’s on my wife’s Blazer EV AWD. Even with the AWD, the standard ultra low rolling resistance tires it came with were horrible in the snow and these made a word of difference. I/we are actually confident driving the Blazer in the snow now.
I've been impressed with my Nokian NAT Outposts this year. _Plenty_ of offroad traction, 3 peak rated, and they're lighter than Falkens.
2018 SE with VR6 engine and Nokian Hakkas. Great in the snow!
I went with NOKIAN
HAKKAPELIITTA R5. Fantastic tires.
Personally, I have the Nokian WRG5 on my work van, and they have been... I don't know... OK I guess... I work in rural North Dakota, mostly highway driving but some gravel and I think they are pretty sloppy feeling on gravel at any decent speed...
I got 65k from my WRG4’s and 60k from my WRG3’s. Coincidentally I only got 50k from my CC2’s not because I ran out of tread, but because they were **so damn loud** I ditched them early.
Nokian WRG3s were the loudest tire I've owned by far when worn, even louder than the cheap studded winters that replaced them. Also had tons of dryrot at 4 yrs old.
