It runs Nokian Encompass AW01s which are a 3MP snowflake rated all weather tire and it's been really good in increasingly mild Wisconsin winters since 2022.
If you don\u2019t want to switch out and have 2 sets of wheels I\u2019d go with Nokian remedy wrg5
Throw some Nokian Hakka's on it and let it rock.
I just put new Nokian Hakkapeliitta studs on mine. Handles like a dream. So happy I plonked down the money.
Not sure if they exist for your size but I am using Nokian Outposts E-rated and absolutely love them. Good performance in all conditions, including rain and snow, no tire noise even above 80 mph and good off-road performance.
I also have GOOD tires (Nokian Norseman studless ) and chains I can put on(Thule Easy-fit )
Just replaced factory continentals with the Hankook Ion Evo as SUV and couldn\u2019t be happier. Discount tire was $1500 otd. I put 900 miles down on them over a road trip for thanksgiving and can confidently say they are better than the factory tires. \n\nSuper quiet, great in wet.
I drove all last winter with the standard 18” Hankook AS tires that came with my Model 3 LR. Worked fine.
Had Continental for years and they always lasted about 35-40k and wore evenly. Hancook Kinergy on same Honda last time (it was a convenience thing) and they are terrible. 23k and maybe I’ll get 30k out of them. They’re loud and I can tell they just aren’t wearing as well.
I spin the stock Hankooks on the Mk8 constantly. Which is crazy for a 235 summer tire on a 240hp car.
