Tires NITTO or Nokia

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.

My work van has the Nokian Remedy WR G5 after coming off of Toyo Celsius (yeah, never going down the Toyo road again with a passenger all-weather tire, at least in the foreseeable future), so far they have been solid and performed well this fall, much quieter and more stable than the Toyos...

Im a high mileage driver 80k per year for work driving across Canadian Prairies and into Rocky mountains and I take the Nokian R5 every winter. You get -40 black ice roads with high cross winds in a tall minivan and never hit the ditch or gotten into accident with them. Handles deep snow with 0 issues too.

i run 195/60R16 Nokian Haakepelittas for winter and brother let me tell YOU, i'm very cautious about when i get into VTEC while driving on dry asphalt with them.

Nitto NT555 G2’s have been very good to me in a place that never sees below 60. Rain, sunshine, don’t matter. They grip and don’t break the bank.

My Russian made Nokians have served me well, with no issues at all.

A bit over rated. I have some. Not the grippiest 320tw but they last a long time, pretty good in the rain but need heat to grip up when dry. Better than some cheap uhp tires but noticeably slower than the Hankook V12 evo2 I had.

the Nitto Grapplers are horrible on wet pavement. Too bad, because they worked well for me otherwise.
