Tires Toyo or Nokia
I've had a few sets of Nokian all weathers on different vehicles. They're excellent. The all weathers honestly don't give up much and are way more like a regular tire on dry pavement.
Stock Toyo tire on '20 Mazda3 w/ the low profile tires was prone to sidewall bulging when it encountered potholes. Haven't had an issue after switching to bfgoodrich. Otherwise, nothing.
I run the Nokian Nordmans (without studs) on my 24 XL Hybrid here on the coast of Maine. Last winter my MPG did drop a bit, probably by 2-3 miles. The peace of mind is worth the mileage.
EESTIT MAINUTUD RAAWWWRRRR
Id run em for sure those dont appear to have any dry rot or cracks in em and they are a wickedly good winter tire i had a set of hakkapelitas that were 12 years old last winter and they still rocked. Not as good as brand new but for 400 bucks of our canadian funny money you are still doin alright there.
I changed my dads nokians for the first time. He always went to the dealership before. It's a 2015 4runner he bought new, and put new nokians on that winter. The nokians are from 2013. And they are still soft and not a hint of dry rot. The 4runner is garage kept, as are the tires. People here will lose their brains, but they are in much better shape than my 4 year old Continental winter tires.
MSW type 52 & nokian R5s . The gloss black looks just like the OEM darks, and are quite affordable. R5s review very well as a winter tire
Apparently they perform well which must be true since their winter tires are very popular where I live too. It is just the quality of the material itself that's awful.
I will not buy Nokian. Dry rot and cracking on sidewalls on 3000 miles. Didn't stand behind their warranty
I have less than 25K on these tires. The tread is greater than 8/32 and I thought the cracking was part of the tread pattern. Then I noticed the tire was starting to flake apart on the tread.
I just had them replaced. I paid $800 for these tires 3 years ago. When they were sold to me they were already 1 year old. I called Nokian and they helped me find a shop that would support the warranty. The shop I bought them from would not provide any warranty support at all. This is also the shop that convinced me Nokian are good tires. I wish I had known. So frustrated that I just spend another bucket of money after 25k miles.
