Laughs in Nokian winter tires ????
winter tires are absolutely 100% worth it. my personal recommendations are studded nokian hakkapelita r2s, drove on them without abs or traction control in an icy -40 alberta winter without worry.
I decided to get some Nokian Hakkapeliittas for my 03 wrx when I bought it, and I\u2019ve never once regretted that decision. I have to purposely fight to lose traction in any snow when I want to have fun.
just replaced the T1res with the Hancock ev ion thingys. I like them and notice they are much quieter.
I've been happy with all-weather (different from all-season tires) made by Nordman or Nokian tires. I use Nokain WRG4s. They are great for wet roads and some snow, but can have issues if the snow gets really packed down and slick. I find my tires maintain their thread life fairly well although you'll get less cumulative life out of them compared to switching between summer/winter tires.
Hankook, only because it has a good review from a popular consumer testing site but none of the others were reviewed.
I had R3s on my previous vehicle (Tesla M3) and they were fantastic...I can only imagine the R5s are even better. They made a HUGE difference here in the Dakota winters.
I am at 25k in 13 months with 4/32 on my rear and 6/32 on the fronts of my Y Performance (can’t rotate due to staggered wheels). I have the Hankook Ion Evo AS suv tires. Those only start at 8.5/32 new from Tesla vs 10/32 for the replacement version. Not bad, if I was able to rotate I would have averaged 3.5/32 of wear over 25k miles. They still have pretty good traction, was able to fully launch in the recent nor’easter storm with slippage only on painted lines (testing to see how traction is in full rain, pretty impressive). But, there are now turns or on/off ramps that the rear wants to step out when applying a little more power than I should, was able to practically drift it around a ramp during the same storm.
I used RS4s and as much as I love them as a daily driver/back road tire they’re practically useless as an autocross tire. They need lots of heat to get grippy and I never managed to get that from an autox run.
I had the same issue, replaced them as soon as I could. They seem to be famous for the edge line which is same like yours.
