I'm on my second set of PZero Nero A/S on my MKIV in 7 years. They handled a few decent snows that we had in MD/DC when I lived up there just fine. I have no complaints about them.
My 2012 GLI came with Pirelli PZero Nero A/S tires on it. It handles incredibly well, not sure how much of that is GLI and how much is the tires, but definitely no complaints here.
I had Pirelli snows last year and they worked great
The top rated tire in this class was a Pirelli P Zero Nero All Season tire.
I'm pretty happy with how things came out with the tires. We really haven't had any snow where I live to really try them out, but in the cold weather, even the dry traction is worlds better than the PZeros that came on the care---despite being an inch smaller and a good amount narrower (235 vs 255).
I ended up going onto the Nokian website and searched around for the right snow tires for an EV. They actually have them. They have them up to a 99 load rating which is much better than the 95s I had. Made a huge difference in handling...
I too was running Nokian Haks and it was almost uncanny how good the traction was not just in deep fresh but on compacted snow and ice. The EV is a very heavy vehicle and having 2/3 the weight (depending on cargo) over the drive wheels makes a very stable setup.
17" of snow We just received an official 17.1" of snow so here is how my 01mv did with a set of Nokian Haks: At the end of the storm I tried to drive uphill to my house on an unplowed residential street. Made it most of the way before getting stuck - the front bumper was pushing snow.
I have the same problems with my p zero neros also. Right at 70 mph that steering wheel jitters. It's not bad, but somewhat irritating. I have had the tires balanced and rotated twice, but the jitter remains. It does seem to be getting better with mileage however. I must say though, these are by far the best all season performance tires I have owned.
I agree with the above poster; the Pirellis were less then impressive. Im at the end of the life of my 2nd set and have gotten 36K out of the 1st and 31K out of the second. They have cupped horribly, and consequently they are noisy as hell.
