Tires Firestone or Nokia

I have Firestone Winterhawk 4, and they are great. Its basically budget version of Blizzaks as they are owned by Bridgestone. I am in central Europe and we have mild and wet winters as well, my driving profile includes everything, I will do 500km on the highway, mountain pass and then city driving and they work perfectly. We have them on 3 cars already. I was thinking about something more premium, but I am perfectly happy with them.

Na autě mám celoroční Nokian a nemůžu si stěžovat.

I personally use 205/50r16 Firestone Winterforce 2's on my MK7 for Iowa Winters, it's a great tire and I've had little issues with it.

I had them on an 2015 Accord sedan for four+ years(7/8 months per year), fantastic tires unfortunately I cannot attest to snow as I switch over to Hakkapeliitta 9 in Mid November as we have a Winter Tire Law in Quebec Canada. They are very good on the wet, great on dry, not particularly loud and wear relatively well but tire pressure and one good alignment a year is a must in Montreal with the fluctuations in Temperature and pot holes in the spring/summer...

I currently have Firehawk AS V2's on mine. I live in an area that gets all four seasons, and they've served me well in the rain and snow/ice. I'm sure I'm sacrificing some summer performance, but that's pretty far from my priority. No issues with excessive wear or tire noise

My wife wanted a tire that was more comfortable, quieter, and had better treadwear than the OEM summer tires. So far, we're really happy with these tires.

Even though there's no acoustic foam like on our OEM tires, they're quieter. They're practically silent up to 50mph but there's a slight hum at freeway speeds. They're not as loud as the OEM Continentals.

They're also much more comfortable than the OEM summer tires. With the Ohlins suspension and OEM Continentals, the Polestar 2 was surprisingly jarring over small bumps on the road. One thing that I noticed was that the Nokian sidewalls seem to be pretty soft/flexible.

Tread life should be solid. Handling/Performance feels like 85% of the OEM tires.

All in all, these aren't track tires. Nor are they the sportiest tires in the UHP All-Season class. But they're a super practical choice for a wide range of coupes and sedans - they should wear well, they're comfortable, and provide enough grip to have fun.

My wife bought a car from carvana and i noticed on delivery that the tires were at the wear bars. Took it to Firestone, they filed a claim with SR on the spot and had new tires in a couple of hours. Can’t complain about that.

I'm proud I bought Nokian winter tires few years ago. They weren't that expensive, about €75 each considering Continental were something like €120 each.

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

For a pickup or heavy vehicle no way, I have Nokians on my 17 Ford F350 can't wait to get them off, still have 50% according to the wear indicator, been driving for over 40 years and they are the worst tires I have ever had. This experience with Nokians has instilled a real dislike for the brand.
