Tires Nokia or RIKEN

Anything Nokian. Nokian Hakkapelitta R5 is what I use in Sweden and they work extremely well. They work in a wide range of temperatures and work well on roads that aren’t very snow covered as well as roads with quite a bit of snow.

Had a set on my 2020 Highlander Hybrid. Put about 45k on them with no problems. We have crappy pothole roads and for the beating they took, they held up great. Just purchased again for a passenger car.

Though now I have a new car with SUV version Nokians, they feel much better than smaller tire sizes of Nokian.

Both are top tier winter tires, just Nokian being generally noisier

Nokian nAT Outpost tires are fantastic (for an A/T) in the snow. Not the most aggressive off road compound but even though it's not a true winter tire Nokian still knows what they're doing.

In my experience Nokian Hakkapeliitta are good, but not as durable as Continental or Michelin.

We just bought new ones last year and went for Nokian Hakkapeliitta 10 (studded) as we live in the coastal area and we get really icy roads throughout the winter.

I just got a pair. They're nice and grippy, which is good when the car has so much torque, and range seems unaffected, even a bit better than my previous Michelin Premiers.

I would skip the encompass aw01s. I had a set WR G3s and then a set of WR G4s and they were great with low noise and great traction. I then tried these since they were on sale, and I didn’t find them as good as the prior two sets of nokians. They seemed noisier and only excelled in standing water traction. Otherwise snow conditions seemed just average.

Ei oo just noista kokemusta, mutta muutama vuosi sitten ostin Nokian Nordman 7 nastarenkaat. Ne oli alusta asti surkeat kaikissa talviolosuhteissa.
