Just installed the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV tire. They come with the right load range and speed rating and are surprisingly quiet on the road. I don't have but a few miles on them, but they look good and fit nicely though at 33" instead of 34".
Those Nokian's are one reason I went and purchased a Subaru in 2013.
Friend has the Hakkapeliitta's on his Outback.
On the year it snowed heavily, had an emergency call out. I wasn't going anywhere.
He called and said "I'll take you" and my reply was "in what? A snowmobile?" His reply " no, Outback". I was like yeah..sure
Half hour, I hear his horn outside. He takes us to a lot not plowed and said get in and drive.
I was like, OK I'm close to home, I can walk back.
I put it in drive, sep on the gas and HOLY SHIT! It was amazing!
He took me on the parkway, people sliding, going off into grass or worse. Us? Cruising like it was spring.
Found he had the Nokian Hakkapeliitta's on. Damn things are so good, you could climb a tree
On the way back, we pulled out countless cars, SUV's and trucks from snowbanks, woods etc.
That sold me on both Subaru and those Hakkapeliitta's!
The Nokians are a solid choice. After extensive research I went with Michelin X-Ice for better hydroplaning and lower rolling resistance. All other testing categories were within the margin of error.
Just put the Ion Evo 235/35/20's on my '22 M3P and I'm loving them so far. Great grip in dry cold conditions, light snow (that's all I've been able to test so far this year) and in the wet. Almost passed them over due to another poster that was having serious buyers remorse, but can say that I'm very pleased with them. They're very quiet (mine came stock with the P-Zero summers) so that's my point of reference. These are noticeably firmer, but seem to have gotten a little more compliant as I've broken them in.
Blizzaks are great. Nokian Hakkapeliitta's are out of this effing world.
Not sure what you went with but the Nokian WR G4 are great tires. I've used 4 pairs of the WR type of tires over 15 years in Michigan, Oregon, Utah(In the Canyon), Washington and Colorado on a front wheel and AWD drive SUVs/cars. They work great and are snow tires.
Dupa ce am stat sa fac comparații intre ... Multele modele de anvelope, tyre lab, tyre reviews... Urmarit oferte... Degeaba ca se termina stocu pana ma decideam eu, m-am hotărât la Hankook winter icept rs3.
Ieri le-am pus, azi am mers 100~km cu ele.
Pt mine a meritat. Nah, momentan n-am dat de zapada, dar ride comfort e super, si pe ploaie nu am avut probleme.
Eu recomand hankook winter icept rs3, pe ud (cum sunt majoritatea iernilor in ultimul timp) se comporta perfect
One review says it's quiet, but the other review says it's loud:
Only experience with OE Hancocks was on a VW Passat. Took delivery on new car and drove home from the dealer in a snow storm and it was the most severe case of white knuckle syndrome ever. The car was absolutely dangerous and scary.
