Tires Falken or Nokia

I've had Nokian Hockeypilates before and they are absolutely a competent tire, easily on par with the Blizzaks (if not a little better in some areas).

We have the R5 on the RAV and the 10s on the Camry. Best winter tires we’ve had.

I have Nokian Hakkapelliita R5 snow tires on my 2022 RAV4 SE. I‘m really impressed with their performance so far. We have had a lot of snow and ice and these tires go through everything with confidence. I’ve previously had Michelin x-ice and Blizzaks. The Nokians are in the same league for sure.

Falken and Nokian tyres are my favorites for winter. Falken allyear tyres in the spring and fall, and studded Nokian tyres during winter.

I wanted to provide feedback from my recent purchased of 4 x Nokian all weather WR G4 255/45 R20 for my 2020 Model Y LR.

The car handled snow, rain, slush, and a wintry mix like a champ. Not once did I lose traction or get stuck. The tires and car performed excellent.

225/45R18 Nokians on aluminum Aspen Satin Black rims. Working fine so far, live just Southwest of Toronto though so not too much snow so far.

I'm from Quebec and I have Fast FC04 19x8.5 Bronze wheels with 225/40R19XL NOKIAN HAKKAPELIITTA R3 .

During the chaos, my set of APTs faced deep puddles, slush, powder snow, deep snow compact snow, and ice, and many hills. Quite the shakedown indeed. But in one word, confidence! I had no problems driving off on a stand-still on either level or uphills, and no problems stopping whatsoever. My car was stable and I was in complete control at all times.

Personally, I think a Hakka 1 or Hakka 2 is too agressive a tire for an AWD NJ daily driver unless your commute is only a couple of miles. They'll corner like you have four gum-erasers mounted and at least double your road noise.

I didnt have this issue when I was using Michelin X-ice last winter, it was cheaper but I feel its much better.

Falken Eurowinter hs449 is overrated or just plain fake reviews. I slip when gas/brake and even on some turns. What make me feel bad is other cars are driving faster / braking harder and turning faster then me. I look like I got summer tires on.

Strongly not recommended this.
