My work van has the Nokian Remedy WR G5 after coming off of Toyo Celsius (yeah, never going down the Toyo road again with a passenger all-weather tire, at least in the foreseeable future), so far they have been solid and performed well this fall, much quieter and more stable than the Toyos...
Im a high mileage driver 80k per year for work driving across Canadian Prairies and into Rocky mountains and I take the Nokian R5 every winter. You get -40 black ice roads with high cross winds in a tall minivan and never hit the ditch or gotten into accident with them. Handles deep snow with 0 issues too.
i run 195/60R16 Nokian Haakepelittas for winter and brother let me tell YOU, i'm very cautious about when i get into VTEC while driving on dry asphalt with them.
Put on 285/75/r17 KO3s. I didn’t add a lift or level kit, wanted to try it out first. Absolutely love the look and initial feel, can’t wait to try it in the snow this winter and sand next Spring.
My Russian made Nokians have served me well, with no issues at all.
I have just over 6500 miles on my set of Nokian nAT LT275/65/20s. Echoing some of the other replies here... I've had the opposite experience and for me, overall they have performed simply better than the OEM Pirellis.
I have the opposite experience. 4,000 miles on the tires so far and my efficiency is *better* than the Pirellis by about 5%. They are better off-road, handle the sand dunes better than Pirellis
Interesting review. I’ve been running my Nokian for over 13000 miles and I haven’t experienced what you have on the road. I’ve felt they are quite stable and handle super awesome compared to the stock AT Pirelli.
I’ve always loved my KO2’s until this set. They don’t seem to do as well in wet roads as they used to.
I know this thread is 2 years old, but I have Nordman 7 on my 22 kona ev, and the grip is terrible. I have owned Hakkas on all my cars including subarus and they were top tier, on this car they don't grip for some reason.
The cabin noise is driving me crazy too, sort of excited to finish winter, and it ain't even started yet to be able to change them next year.
