Tires Nokia or GENERAL TIRE

Go for the Nokian Hakkapeliitta. Best tires by far! They're not cheap but definitely worth it. I have the studded ones on both of my vehicles and they're bullet proof

The tire pressure light came on but upon Reset so far so good. The slightly larger size gives the car a nicer and quieter ride. Should also last longer due to greater load carrying capacity. The Goodyears were good for 28K miles. If it were summer I probably let them go till 30K.

I got the Nokian wrg4 for my wife's 2001 Lexus rx300 and have been very impressed. Still less than 1000 miles on them though so can't speak for the longevity.

I have the Nokian WR-G4, which are in a class of tires called 'all-weather' tires. This class of tire is relatively new is much more winter biased than traditional all-season tires. It does very well with moderate amounts of snow and extremely cold temperatures, whereas most typical all-season tires are 'marginally sufficient' at best.

After driving in dedicated winters (blizzak and c-ice) for 10+ years my last two sets of tires have been Nordman WR and Nokias WR G4, both perform equally to the dedicated winters in my driving in Alberta winters with lots of mountain driving.

I'm considering getting something like 50,000 mile General G-Max AS 05s instead of something like the long lasting and highly rated Michelin CrossClimate2

Had the WR G4 SUV on my Ford Edge, much better then the stock Michelin Latitude tires, especially in winter.

Ended up with General ALTIMAX 365 AW. Wife wanted a solid ice/snow tire. Best rated tire for snow/ice . Fairly good for Ride quality and noise. Dry/wet driving is not rated as good as other two tires on this list.

I'm running 225/60R16 General Altimax Arctic on aftermarket alloy wheels. 15's are definitely too small, my 16's barely clear the caliper

I am living in Alaska now, where studded tires are a common thing. After five years in Houghton, 3 winters w all-weather tires and 2 with winter tires and now with studded tires, driving a small-to-mid-sized SUV (VW Tiguan and Jeep Renegade), my verdict is that studded tires are overblown. I have the highest end studded tires- the Finnish ones made in Russia. They offer nothing over my all-weather tires. Nothing at all.
