I picked up a set of aftermarket rims and snow tires from Tire Rack and have been loving them for mountain trips and Local winter road travel.
I chose the WRG5 for my mom due to superior winter performance vs the CC2 and everything I have heard is that the CC2 is one of the louder tires-
For a Helsinki \u2192 Ruka trip in January, go straight for top-tier Nordic studless winters Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 or Michelin X-Ice Snow. Both are built exactly for the kind of icy, packed-snow highways you\u2019ll hit up north, and they handle EV weight really well. The R5 has slightly better ice grip, the X-Ice is a bit quieter and longer lasting.
I have tried falken wildpeak and Cooper discoverer all terrain tires which are both winter rated and neither were remotely as good as mt Hakepalita 10 studded tires.
I have the Nokian Encompass AW02 a very similar style tire but cheaper. Been happy with them so far. Was recommended at discount tire for my Subaru Forester. If you want another option...
FWD 98 ford taurus wagon on nokian Hakkapellitta R5's, I havent broke traction once this winter yet
We got the hakka studded ones on this year and WOW I will never go bad. We were using Firestone winter tires that came with our car before that and slid all over the place.
Purchased nokian Hakkapellitta R5's for my 98 ford taurus wagon. I will never recommend another tire, would only reccomend studded hakka's. I drive the 881 up north to conklin and back south to cold lake every 2 weeks (2 on 2 off shift) these wheels have 100% given me a false sense of security on the road because I am yet to lose any form of traction even starting from a stop sign on an incline.
I’ve been driving on both all weather and winter tires in Calgary for 35 years. I cant tell the difference. I’ve done dozens of trips through the mountain passes on both as well…also cant tell the difference. All weathers usually are Nokian WRG (currently I have a set of Michelin Cross-Climates on one vehicle) and winters are Pirelli or Nokian
I had nokian wrg4 all weather and I wouldnt buy them again I find them to wear out fast.
