Tires Nokia or GT Radial

Tiguan 17” steelies, et38 6.5w. I might have went a little too nuts and ceramic coated them, metal valve stems, greased weights/stems for anti corrosion, ordered Transporter T4 Lug-covers from EU and put Nokian R5 Hakkapelittas on

Yea I work at a tire shop they look exactly like every other set of nokians we throw on

I am impressed with Nokian brand.

If you’re on a budget get some GT Radials from Amazon for like $65-$80 per tire. They’re Chinese tires but they’re one of the better ones. I think I paid about $400 total for my tires and all services and they’ve been really solid for me.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 for studless and Hakkapeliitta 10s for studded are hands down the best snow tires I've driven on and got to test them on 3 different vehicles. They let us test 4 of the leading competitors tires and the Nokian Hakkapeliitta out performed by far

Do you see that 6 and 4 stamped into the tread. Nokians are cool, they are telling you the tires have 60% tread or better.

I had Nokian WR-G2s. I had such great confidence in my Nokians on 18s. Only stuck once due to clearance but it was also a hill and just bad scenario but that was over 8 years.

Nokians are awesome tires... Only winter I've liked more are my general Altimax tires, but have only put them through one season (albeit a hard winter).

Just got a set of Seasonproof 1's. Stamped (4823) made in China. will report back if they rot.

Typical Nokian lol. They are garbage and most of them end up like this. The small cracks aren't too bad but the big one that goes around the side is concerning
