I use Nokian Hakkepellitas for Calgary winters. They’ll do what you need in Toronto.
I run Nokian R5 SUV on my b85 sq5 and they're really, really good.
I have nokian on the car and its been fantastic, been using nokians for ages for winter tires.
Nokian Hakkapeliitta is your best answer. These tires run toe to toe with everything else available on snow and ice acceleration and handling and beat everything else on stopping ability on snow and ice.
I have a set on my S4 and they're the best winter tire I've owned after having had xIces, SottoZeros and studded WeatherMasters
I run them on both the wife’s Q5 and my WRX. I’ve run Blizzaks and Toyo winter tires and the Nokian tires are head and shoulders better than those
the Nokian R5 is incredible. I used to live next to a ski resort, and the tire killed it in cold weather, ice, deep snow, the works
The OEM Michelins on my ‘23 lasted just under 30k miles - replaced with 255/70R18 Nokian Outpost nAT (32.1 in). Relatively obscure tire so I’m curious to see how they are. I’m hoping given Nokian’s rep for winter tires that these perform well in the snow this ski season.
Just got 4 installed last Friday. This morning on the way to work I started to hear what I’d describe as a winding sound. Only when going slow, like under 20mph. I’m wondering if it’s just a “new tire sound” but none of any other new tires have I ever heard it.
I changed from Hankook winter tires to Laufenn and in direct comparison they were rather bad in any condition other than heavy snow. (Noisier ,worse traction in dry and wet conditions)
