I've had the Nokian WRG models for the past 10 years and there's always been a song and dance with each model I tried. The WRG3 were excellent in the snow but the treadwear and dry performance was average (Enough for my driving needs, however). The WRG4 were slightly worse in the snow compared to the WRG4 (Still decent) but leaps better in dry performance and rain. The problem with the WRG4 was the susceptibility to dry rot and overall "wear" from normal driving. They have been punctured, misshapen, and suffered "premature" treadwear compared to what was advertised as the expected tread-life of the tire. But given how well they perform in my 4-season climate state, I would rate them highly. Tire noise is minimal, performance all around is outstanding, and minimal diminishing of performance through treadwear.

Pros: minimal tire noise, outstanding performance
Cons: susceptible to dry rot, premature wear

Laufenn Tires

I run a similar Laufenn on my 1 tonne work truck as my winter set up and they have been excellent. I actually have Laufenn on my sport truck, wifes mini cooper s and my work truck. All have been great. Good traction and well wearing.

Pros: good traction, well wearing

From my experience, Nokian makes the best winter tires. Once you use winter tires on slush, ice and snow, you will never go back to all season tires in winter. With AWD, it's more about being able to turn and brake in slippery conditions than getting started.

Pros: best for slush, ice, snow; good turning, braking

For anyone considering the Nokian One, be aware that they wear fast on heavier vehicles (SUV or minivan). I have about 30,000km and they are past the 60% indicators.

Cons: wear fast on SUV
Mileage: 30000 km
