Tires Nokia or GT Radial

Nokia Tires

I just installed Nokian Hakkapeliitta 10 studded winter tires 275/45R21 on the OEM 21x9" rim just in time for the big storm. We got 16" of snow yesterday. It did great in deep snow and ice, going up hills no problem. This is my first winter with the iX and I was hoping the stock Goodyear Eagle Touring would be sufficient in light snow, but I wouldn't recommend driving it unless the roads are perfectly cleared. It was difficult driving on the Goodyear Eagle Touring tires even with just an inch of snow before the roads were cleared, which is what prompted me to install winter tires mid-winter. If you live in an area that gets snow or ice in the winter, it could be worth getting a winter set. Having two sets of tires will also reduce the mileage on your summer set, allowing them to last longer. I don't think it's possible for the stock tires to last the entire 3 year duration of the lease. Based on current wear and other reviews, I expect the Goodyears to last maybe 15,000 miles.

Pros: great in deep snow, good on ice
Cons: stock tires poor in light snow
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 15000 km

I'm experiencing the same. Had mines for a week now in 285/75R17 E load on a GMC Canyon AT4X. Replaced the stock tires Wrangler Territory MT 285/70R17 C Load.

Discount Tire inflated them to 36. Now have them at 31.

Because of its slight donut shape, it makes the tire look skinny.

Pros: tread wider than stock
Cons: slight donut shape, looks skinny

Last year I used the factory AT 20s. Traction in snow was ok, but lateral control was absolute garbage. I didn’t feel confident at all.

Pros: traction in snow ok
Cons: lateral control garbage
