I’ve owned 5 sets of Nokian tires and never a single issue with dry rot.
Just got my hands on the Hankook ventus prime 4 quiet, soft, calm, sticks to the ground and doesnt suffer on cornering or handling no understeering or whats so ever. Highly recommend either the bridgestone or the hankooks especially for long drives.
I went with Nokian outpost APTs. only had them for a few weeks and they handle just as well as the road tires I had on previously.
Here’s an update on the Hankook tires. They are notably more efficient than the Pirellis. My daily commute was showing an average energy use of 285 Whr/mile pretty consistently. For the past month, it is now at 235 Whr/mile. This is in addition to being notably quieter over most road surfaces.
Slower but vastly more durable tire > outright pace for an 8 hour enduro. And the answer to that is, as always, Hankook RS4.
The Nokian lasts so Long been using it since 2001 in Minnesota and now it's 2024. Rubber and studs like new. Best money I ever spent.
That's about as quiet as you'll get before going to a street tire. I have hankook dynapro at on one jeep and they seem a little quieter but they're also on a quieter jeep.
The falkens are pretty quiet though on my other jeep.
I used to like Blizzaks, then I tried the Nokian Hakkapeliittas and found they worked better for me in Wisconsin winters.
Go for the Hankooks. That's a big price hike for not *that* much more tire.
After 2K miles i could not stand the road noise anymore. I upgraded my tires and what a difference it was. that annoying road noise disappeared and grip got a lot better.
