Tires Kumho or Nokia

Long term update for anyone considering the Nokian One. Had them installed in 2022, put 40,000km on the vehicle since, 10k of that was probably on my winter tires. I just passed the 60% indicator. I figure they will last 60,000km.

The Kumho is a far superior tire from a respected manufacturer based in South Korea. The Radar might look like the better deal up front, but it will likely wear fast and not perform anywhere near as good as the Kumho tires.

I had those Kumhos on my mustang and found they were really good. No complaints about them. I highly recommend them especially for the price

I'm in Vancouver where it constantly rains for half the year and I haven't noticed any issue with the stock Kumhos whether in the city or on the highway.

Even in the snow, I felt they performed fine driving at half the speed limit in the city.

I got a set of Kuhmo's 2 years ago and I have no complaints. For the price I paid, I love them. They feel like the Michelin and Continental tires I have had previously, but I don't know if they will last as long.

Nokian tires are pretty good. It's not a Goodyear, but they will perform very well.

Honestly, if you have the option to get the Nokian Hakkas I would grab those. I had Nokian Haakas when I had my Golf about 8 years ago for 4 winters in Montreal. I used to drive to the mountains to go snowboarding with my daughter on weekends at the cottage and never had an issue with driving. We get ice, dumps of snow, slush and just about everything you can get in a winter season that always seems to last forever. Looooooved the Haakas.

For a guy who lives in Finnish coast. We used Nokian since it is local, but other brands and models that I often see are Michelin X Ice and Michelin studded tyre variant, Continental Viking Contact or its studded variant, lastly Goodyear Ultragrip Ice or its studded variant.

I've been buying Kumho Ecsta PS91, but I'd like to try something different.

I had the exact same problem on Nokian tires that were less 3000 miles and under 3 years old. Had the orginal paperwork ftom the previous owner of the vehicle.
