Tires Hankook or Nokia
I wanted to provide feedback from my recent purchased of 4 x Nokian all weather WR G4 255/45 R20 for my 2020 Model Y LR.
The car handled snow, rain, slush, and a wintry mix like a champ. Not once did I lose traction or get stuck. The tires and car performed excellent.
225/45R18 Nokians on aluminum Aspen Satin Black rims. Working fine so far, live just Southwest of Toronto though so not too much snow so far.
Hankook RS4s have my recommendation if you're not going to compete in sanctioned time attacks where prizes are on the line. I value tire longevity rather than saving one or two seconds per lap with a theoretical perfect racing line(not something that's bound to happen often).
I'm from Quebec and I have Fast FC04 19x8.5 Bronze wheels with 225/40R19XL NOKIAN HAKKAPELIITTA R3 .
During the chaos, my set of APTs faced deep puddles, slush, powder snow, deep snow compact snow, and ice, and many hills. Quite the shakedown indeed. But in one word, confidence! I had no problems driving off on a stand-still on either level or uphills, and no problems stopping whatsoever. My car was stable and I was in complete control at all times.
I put some Nokian WR G4s on my wife's 2017 Outback when we had that. It was a beast in the snow and I am a Nokian lifer now.
I’m putting Nokian Entyre 2’s on as soon as I need them. I’ve run them on 3 other vehicles and they are fantastic.
I had WRG4s on a previous vehicle in Ontario. They are great shoulder season tires, and are manageable in the winter.
I have them and have had them in the past...they're halfway descent. There are much better tires out there depending on what you need. My complaints are that they are not as good as they should be for the rating as far as grip, also they are relatively noisy, and rougher than i prefer.
I personally know they are trash. Great advertising, poor engineering. Stay clear of Blizzaks and get Nokian.
