Tires Hankook or Nokia

Love my Nokian Ones. Seem to be good on efficiency, wear, performance, and price.

I've had the Nokian WRG models for the past 10 years and there's always been a song and dance with each model I tried. The WRG3 were excellent in the snow but the treadwear and dry performance was average (Enough for my driving needs, however). The WRG4 were slightly worse in the snow compared to the WRG4 (Still decent) but leaps better in dry performance and rain. The problem with the WRG4 was the susceptibility to dry rot and overall "wear" from normal driving. They have been punctured, misshapen, and suffered "premature" treadwear compared to what was advertised as the expected tread-life of the tire. But given how well they perform in my 4-season climate state, I would rate them highly. Tire noise is minimal, performance all around is outstanding, and minimal diminishing of performance through treadwear.

Hankook a trusted quality brand as well

We have studded Nokian hakkapalitta, love them.

I won't drive on anything but studded Nokian tires now.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta studded would be my #1 choice. Best winter tire imo.

Had blizzacs for years. Got studded Hakkas never going back.

From my experience, Nokian makes the best winter tires. Once you use winter tires on slush, ice and snow, you will never go back to all season tires in winter. With AWD, it's more about being able to turn and brake in slippery conditions than getting started.

NOKIA MADE TIRES?!?

Noisy is the least of your worries. These things are straight up plastic tires in the rain, seriously keep your distance and granny it in the rain.
