Tires Nokia or Laufenn
I have the Ones on my 1997 Toyota Estima Emina and they're great. Nice steering response and like Nokian's other all-season tires, they do great in the wet. I also appreciate the aramid (kevlar) sidewalls.
Best tires I've used in order are:
Nokian Hakka r3 (r5, r10, r8)
Nokian One. They are cheaper than top tier tires with the same or better ratings. They have a 80k mile tread wear warranty, reinforced sidewalls and great grip in the rain. I live in the PNW and have had them for only a couple months but I highly recommend.
Mine is a beast with Hakkapeliitta R3 snow tires.
I have a set of Laufenn tires on my car rn for snow. forget what tire exactly but they provide me plenty of grip in the winter
I have nokian outpost all terrains on my rig. I love the way they look.
Just installed the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV tire. They come with the right load range and speed rating and are surprisingly quiet on the road. I don't have but a few miles on them, but they look good and fit nicely though at 33" instead of 34".
Those Nokian's are one reason I went and purchased a Subaru in 2013.
Friend has the Hakkapeliitta's on his Outback.
On the year it snowed heavily, had an emergency call out. I wasn't going anywhere.
He called and said "I'll take you" and my reply was "in what? A snowmobile?" His reply " no, Outback". I was like yeah..sure
Half hour, I hear his horn outside. He takes us to a lot not plowed and said get in and drive.
I was like, OK I'm close to home, I can walk back.
I put it in drive, sep on the gas and HOLY SHIT! It was amazing!
He took me on the parkway, people sliding, going off into grass or worse. Us? Cruising like it was spring.
Found he had the Nokian Hakkapeliitta's on. Damn things are so good, you could climb a tree
On the way back, we pulled out countless cars, SUV's and trucks from snowbanks, woods etc.
That sold me on both Subaru and those Hakkapeliitta's!
The Nokian One Tires are marked as a low rolling resistance tire and I decided to give them a try. I drove a 14 mile loop with my old Michelin MXM4's at 35 MPH and then drove the same loop with the new Nokian One's. The Nokian tires had about 13% higher Watt-Hour per Mile consumption.
Hope you have a better experience with the Outpost AT’s than I did. Just pulled them off my WK2 Grand Cherokee and disposed of them after 15K. Either way had substantial cracking and dry-rotting in-between treadblocks and violent shaking that went away with new Destination AT2’s.
