Tires Nokia or IRONMAN
Ive had ironmans and they were good. Ive had sailuns that were good. Right now i have a car that has 5 yr old Solar brand tires and ive put about 80000mi on.
Nokian makes good tractor tires though cause I’ve had a set for over ten years and they look good for their age.
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.
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 put them on a Model 3 and to me I don't feel like there's anything the CC2's can do significantly better that would justify being 40% more expensive than the WRG5's.
I would skip the encompass aw01s. I had a set WR G3s and then a set of WR G4s and they were great with low noise and great traction. I then tried these since they were on sale, and I didn’t find them as good as the prior two sets of nokians. They seemed noisier and only excelled in standing water traction. Otherwise snow conditions seemed just average.
17 years ago (approx) got Nokian Hakkpellita P2s winter tires - only good for #1 season 6k miles I think - #2 the tires were notably poorer (no good)
