I have run Nokian R2SUV full winter and am now on Nokian WRG3. I used to have mounted and dedicated winter tires, but the Nokian All Weather (not all season) are a great solution (they invented snow tires in the 30's and pioneered All Weathers). The Nokian R2's are better than the Blizzaks, Michelin Pilot Alpin and Michelin X-Ice in snow/ice. The Nokian WRG3 are approximately equivalent, but without the spongy (and no braking from Blizzaks) on dry pavement. The Pilot Alpin and Nokian WRG3 are actually fun to drive.
I’m planning on giving All Weather tires a try myself. I will be going with Nokian WR G4 in the 195 65 15 91H size for my base model GSW S. All Weather tires are definitely a step up from all season tires in the Winter.
Nice, I look forward to reading your impressions. I've been trying to find some decent reviews as well. I have bought many sets of Nokian tires since I discovered them 15 years ago. WR and Z line for the cars and I've bought several sets of Rotiiva AT (Plus) for trucks I've owned and I've been very happy with them.
I used to buy Nokian. I would say they offer slightly better ice traction over the Michelins. However they typically cost half more, and last half as long
I ended up getting nokain **all weather** tires last October for winter in thunder Bay. I never once was worried about getting stuck or slipping even in the coldest of nights/mornings. They worked amazingly
Tiguan suspension lift, 17 x 8 et35 TSW Nurburgring wheels with 225/55r17 Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 snow tires. Car has been an absolute beast in the snow, even driving through 6 to 8 inches on the road. Car handles bumps, dips, ice and snow with ease.
my wife followed me home and she just plowed through with her Nokian Hakkapelliitta R3's, the new ones, much better...maybe I'll get those next year.
I haven't tried the Toyo Celsius, but we did have the other all-weather tire, the Nokian WRG3, on our family minivan. We went with those over the Celsius per the recommendation of the tire shop I bought from. The manager there thought the Nokians offered better winter snow/ice grip over the Celsius, while the Celsius was better in dry conditions.
I was low on cash so I went with Nokian zLine a/s ones. They are a lot better then I expected for the price but they are great so far.
I'm getting the Nokian WRG4 in 235/45 17 mounted on my Neuspeed 17s for winter duty. All four wheels spinning yesterday on Sumer tires at 30-40mph wasn't confidence inspiring.
