Tires FEDERAL or Nokia

I have Nokian R3 on the Sportwagen and Michelin X-Ice Snow (OEM) on the V60 here in Canada. Once I need to change, will likely go with Nokian. More quiet, comfortable and better on deeper snow.

I have the r5s on my xc60, best winter tires I’ve ever had.

I have Nokian Snowproof 2s on mine, and they're really good.

I have Nokian Hakkapelitta 9 on my Volvo and they’re great.

I loved my Nokian Winter tires on my old 3000 GT VR4. That thing was unstoppable. They are noisy on dry roads though.

I've been really happy with the Nokian Encompass AW01s on my Volt though. They are an all weather 3MP rated tire that's been very good to us

I have used both all-weather tires (Nokian WR) and winter tires (Continental Viking Contact 7). The all-weather tires are adequate to handle the worst parts of Westwood Plateau and snowy days on My Seymour.

I have these on my SUV. They are All Weather with the snowflake symbol. Excellent snow traction and excellent in the rain.

RS-RR's are good for wear also but way longer to overheat when pushed. They squeal and moan like crazy though and finding the limit of grip is very hard.

Just wait until you try the Nokian Hakkapeliitta or Gislaved Nordfrost and realize that Blizzaks are mediocre at best.
