Tires Nokia or Maxxis

Rekon Race is super fast if it has enough traction for you. If not, Rekon isn't a bad tire to try. Not as fast, but it won't give out when you push it too hard.

I thought the rekon race front and rear was amazing on hard pack rocky mountain dirt.

I have used the Rekon/Rekon Race combo and it is good for xc. I’m currently on Vittoria Barzo/Mezcal and I like them a little bit more than the Maxxis combo

We have studded Nokian hakkapalitta, love them.

I won't drive on anything but studded Nokian tires now.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta studded would be my #1 choice. Best winter tire imo.

Had blizzacs for years. Got studded Hakkas never going back.

Rekon for the rear - Forecaster for the front. Super light - super fast - and good for all scenarios other than wet mud.

I noticed a small (5-6%) loss when I put Nokian ones on but I only have about 1000km on them.

I know this thread is 2 years old, but I have Nordman 7 on my 22 kona ev, and the grip is terrible. I have owned Hakkas on all my cars including subarus and they were top tier, on this car they don't grip for some reason.

The cabin noise is driving me crazy too, sort of excited to finish winter, and it ain't even started yet to be able to change them next year.
