I have a RWD car and run Nokian WRGs in the winter (I swap to some regular all-season tires in the summer).
Overall, the Nokians are a great tire. The only problem I've had is the entrances to the Bonnie Doon traffic circle where the ice gets polished to a mirror finish and makes it near impossible to get started. This is literally the only place in the city where I've had this problem though.
