Ours is a tank. Running on Nokian R5s and compared to my old RS5 with winters, it’s as good as the Audi.
I have Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5s on my SQ8. Quiet and great in snow.
I’m in Alberta, Canada, where the attitude towards snow ploughing is “We do it, if we get around to it— could be sometime next week”. The Model 3 RWD is substantially better on ice than my old ICE vehicle, especially with studded Nokian winter tires on it.
Tires (Winter) Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV (Mandatory for Quebec Dec 1 - Mar 15)
I run Hakkapeliittas on my SQ5 for the New England weather and theyre great on mountain access roads in the thick stuff
I’ve run blizzaks- x-ice- nokians. Preference for the nokians but the x-ice is a close second.
Get some severe snow rated all weather tires. Nokian WRG5s. I have been running their light trail tires on my Q5 and I have been extremely impressed. They handle white out blizzards on Utah mountain passes like a champ.
Get some studded Nokian Hakkapeliitta tires on all four wheels.
I have Nokian Hakkapellita R5s on my winter-driven sports car and they are way too squishy and comfort-focussed.
I had a pair of Nokian one with the exact same problem. Won’t buy Nokian again
