Tires Kumho or Nokia
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.
I’ve had 3-4 sets of kumhos on various vehicles & a trailer, great tires great prices
I’ve owned 5 sets of Nokian tires and never a single issue with dry rot.
I went with Nokian outpost APTs. only had them for a few weeks and they handle just as well as the road tires I had on previously.
The Nokian lasts so Long been using it since 2001 in Minnesota and now it's 2024. Rubber and studs like new. Best money I ever spent.
I used to like Blizzaks, then I tried the Nokian Hakkapeliittas and found they worked better for me in Wisconsin winters.
Don't drive them on bare asphalt unless you want to see them wear down quickly.
The V730s are in the bottom of their class in rain performance in Tire Rack's testing and I tend to agree with their ranking.
