Though now I have a new car with SUV version Nokians, they feel much better than smaller tire sizes of Nokian.
Both are top tier winter tires, just Nokian being generally noisier
Nokian nAT Outpost tires are fantastic (for an A/T) in the snow. Not the most aggressive off road compound but even though it's not a true winter tire Nokian still knows what they're doing.
We have Toyo Open Country AT3 tires on our vehicle. Good tires, not as loud as dedicated snow tires. We keep them on year round.
In my experience Nokian Hakkapeliitta are good, but not as durable as Continental or Michelin.
We just bought new ones last year and went for Nokian Hakkapeliitta 10 (studded) as we live in the coastal area and we get really icy roads throughout the winter.
I just got a pair. They're nice and grippy, which is good when the car has so much torque, and range seems unaffected, even a bit better than my previous Michelin Premiers.
Toyo AT3s
Toyo RT Trails
Toyo MTs
Ran em all, all good tires! The RT Trails lasted.longer on myn1500 than my 2500HD. MTs were my favorite all-around.for looks and performance on my 2500HD. But if you want the best all.season and tread, life go with the AT3s.....Hard to beat Toyos.
I’m in the hilly part of southwest Wisconsin and have a 2015 Subaru Forester 2.5i Touring with Nokian WRG4 SUV tires.
No experience with the Continentals but I really did not like the Nokians. I bought them because they seemed to be well-reviewed, they were only marginally better than the Nexens in terms of traction yet they were a decent bit louder. Despite having plenty of tread left after 35k miles I replaced them with Michelin Primacy Tour and they’re so much quieter and the traction is much improved. I had a friend who is a frequent passenger in my car comment on how much quieter it was completely unprompted the first time he rode in the car after getting the Michelins. The Nokians were loud from the beginning and traction in wet conditions decreased rapidly as they aged.
