Tires Continental or Nokia

Just ordered a new set of Nokian tires for my Mini Cooper. It is reportedly a very good brand.

The grippiest tires I have ever used were Nokian WetProof tires. Some real beasts. Highly recommended.

I had 2 sets of Nokian WRG4 SUVs and 1 set of Michelin CC2. I now have the WRG5 Remedy because I preferred the winter traction of the Nokians better. Even with 3/32nds left the Nokians still got through the winter while Michelins offered no traction.

I love the Nokian, I just put Encompass Aw02 on my Crosstrek what a difference they ride softer track on rails dead quiet

Also, I run Continental Race Kings in 29x2.2.

I’ve been very happy with the Continental TrueContacts on two different cars. Good tread life and performance.

Highly recommend the AW01. I just put my second set of these AW01s on my Ford Fusion after previously having Toyo celsius all weathers. They ride far better than the Toyos. I got almost 60k miles out of my first set yet only 35k out of the Toyos. Amazing in snow and rain here in northeast.

In winter we run studded Nokians. Just incredible.

Don't drive them on bare asphalt unless you want to see them wear down quickly.

I have owned a lot of new cars over the years but the Continental tires on the Arteon are the worst. I have replaced 3 tires over 3 years due to bulging in the sidewall.
