Tires MICHELIN or Nokia
We have the R5 on the RAV and the 10s on the Camry. Best winter tires we’ve had.
I have Nokian Hakkapelliita R5 snow tires on my 2022 RAV4 SE. I‘m really impressed with their performance so far. We have had a lot of snow and ice and these tires go through everything with confidence. I’ve previously had Michelin x-ice and Blizzaks. The Nokians are in the same league for sure.
Here in northeast WI we upgraded from the OEM Yokohama Avid GTs (on the Prime XSE) to the all-weather Cross Climate 2s by Michelin, best upgrade yet. Smoother and quieter ride, plus much better grip in snow and ice. Purchased these tires after much research, highly recommend.
Got Michelin Crossclimate2 tires around 19k miles. The ride is smoother and feels like I’m locked into the road. Speed bumps, pot holes, and such feel way smoother to ride over.
I replaced the stock Yokohama Geolanders with Michelin Defender T+H after 3k miles. The change was quite drastic in noise-reduction and the Defenders performed a lot better too. It absorbed bumps a lot better and handles really well in both wet and snow
Replaced stock toyos after about 6k miles on my ‘22 with Michelin CC2s.
Subjectively quieter, softer ride, and performs better in snow/wet.
I'm happy with my Michelin cross climate. In Minneapolis. They're okay in the snow. Good in wet and dry.
Falken and Nokian tyres are my favorites for winter. Falken allyear tyres in the spring and fall, and studded Nokian tyres during winter.
I'm a little late to the discussion, but I had some Nokian all-weather tires for a couple years (on a Golf) they were better than all seasons, but definitely not as good as good winter tires in the, uh, winter.
My newish Michelin Defenders did that.
