I have Nokian Hakkapelitta studded tires and they\u2019ve been amazing the last 2 years living in Banff and I have a RWD car, drove to Calgary and back plenty of times, in snow storms and have driven to Jasper and BC in the winter with no issues.
Studded Nokian Hakkapelitta are awesome best snow tires i have had and as far studded tires increasing stopping in wet I have never noticed it and I believe it is minimal if any especially with the modern studded technology
Yes they are worth it. I\u2019ve had all types of winter tires. But the studded nokian hakkas are insane. Literally transformative.
I replaced the stock garbage dunlops with some Nokian “nordman” solstice 4 all weathers(Colorado). These are a hair louder than the stock tires since they don’t have EV foam but efficiency has been the exact same if not maybe slightly better. Ride is maybe a little harder but overall they’ve been great in the summer and during heavy rain.
Firestone winterforce 2 tires are great with snow, and drive somewhat close to a regular tire in the cold too.
Used to daily an NA Miata for years (based in PNW.) Had snow tires (hakkas) during winter and never had a problem.
I've bought the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 for one car... I feel the Nokians are the best.
I love driving RWD in winter, especially a good one with a torquey V-8 and a manual transmission like my BMW 550i. It handles so amazingly well in the snow, so effortless. Obviously, high quality winter tires like Nokian Hakkas are an absolute requirement.
Had Michelin X-ice on my A3, didn’t like them in snow over 3”. Switched to Nokian hakkas, much better in snow but a lot noisier.
Ei oo just noista kokemusta, mutta muutama vuosi sitten ostin Nokian Nordman 7 nastarenkaat. Ne oli alusta asti surkeat kaikissa talviolosuhteissa.
