Tires Nokia or DEXTER
Nokian makes good tractor tires though cause I’ve had a set for over ten years and they look good for their age.
Very late to the party here. I just put some Dextero All Terrain’s on a 25 year old Chevy S10 that previously belonged to my now 95 year old grandfather. Maybe this isn’t saying much for an older truck that previously had tires that were god knows how old. But I have a much smoother ride now with possibly a little more road noise, but the noise isn’t anything overbearing and is only slightly louder.
I put these, in this size, on my R1S— they seem great so far (2 weeks). Maybe a little more road noise?
Na autě mám celoroční Nokian a nemůžu si stěžovat.
Late to the party but I've ran the DAT10's for years now and have never had an issue with them that wasn't caused by something else. I've been through 4 sets in about 5 years on a 2010 F150. I've never had a blowout or failure and I usually get between 45-55,000 miles.
I had them on an 2015 Accord sedan for four+ years(7/8 months per year), fantastic tires unfortunately I cannot attest to snow as I switch over to Hakkapeliitta 9 in Mid November as we have a Winter Tire Law in Quebec Canada. They are very good on the wet, great on dry, not particularly loud and wear relatively well but tire pressure and one good alignment a year is a must in Montreal with the fluctuations in Temperature and pot holes in the spring/summer...
My wife wanted a tire that was more comfortable, quieter, and had better treadwear than the OEM summer tires. So far, we're really happy with these tires.
Even though there's no acoustic foam like on our OEM tires, they're quieter. They're practically silent up to 50mph but there's a slight hum at freeway speeds. They're not as loud as the OEM Continentals.
They're also much more comfortable than the OEM summer tires. With the Ohlins suspension and OEM Continentals, the Polestar 2 was surprisingly jarring over small bumps on the road. One thing that I noticed was that the Nokian sidewalls seem to be pretty soft/flexible.
Tread life should be solid. Handling/Performance feels like 85% of the OEM tires.
All in all, these aren't track tires. Nor are they the sportiest tires in the UHP All-Season class. But they're a super practical choice for a wide range of coupes and sedans - they should wear well, they're comfortable, and provide enough grip to have fun.
I'm proud I bought Nokian winter tires few years ago. They weren't that expensive, about €75 each considering Continental were something like €120 each.
I have dexteros on an older suburban, they seem to wear ok, traction is less than the pirellis that came off (really down graded) so they are ok and have been a safe tire they are probably half the price of the pirellis that were removed.
I had Nokian Black as summer tires, very hard, quite uncomfortable.
