Tires Kumho or Nokia

Nokian Hakkapeliitta is your best answer. These tires run toe to toe with everything else available on snow and ice acceleration and handling and beat everything else on stopping ability on snow and ice.

I have a set on my S4 and they're the best winter tire I've owned after having had xIces, SottoZeros and studded WeatherMasters

I run them on both the wife’s Q5 and my WRX. I’ve run Blizzaks and Toyo winter tires and the Nokian tires are head and shoulders better than those

the Nokian R5 is incredible. I used to live next to a ski resort, and the tire killed it in cold weather, ice, deep snow, the works

I really like the Kumho Road Venture AT51. It's quiet on the road but still aggressive enough for rough terrain. It's also three peaks winter rated so it is an excellent tire in the snow and ice. Tread life has been good also

The OEM Michelins on my ‘23 lasted just under 30k miles - replaced with 255/70R18 Nokian Outpost nAT (32.1 in). Relatively obscure tire so I’m curious to see how they are. I’m hoping given Nokian’s rep for winter tires that these perform well in the snow this ski season.

I can say with all honesty that Nokian ( Hakka-something or other in Finnish ) is a stand out winter tire.

I've had Nokians since 2019 on all of my subarus.

Low rolling resistance and greatest snow tire I've ever owned.

I've used Michelin X-Ice and Bridgestone Blizzak's but the Nokians are better.

I do rate and recommend the TA51a, which carries a composite score of 62 in their "All Season Tires" testing category, just beating out the Falken Aklimate. The RT45, came in two spots above, at a score of 63 and again with their recommendation.

Kumho ecstas- slid right off the road within a week of getting them
