Tires Nokia or TIGAR

Nokian Hakkapellitas with studs on all 4 of our vehicles. For winters I go premium. Makes a huge difference

Have a set of Hakka 10 studded on my Ram 1500 rwd work truck and they are PHENOMENAL!

Central Canada here for reference and these tires are amazing on wet/clear roads and great in icy conditions with a couple hundred pound over the rear axle.

Nokian is the original OG in winter tire. In fact, they practically invented winter tires and have been developing winter tires since. It's all I will ever buy for winter tires. Remember that these tires were developed for the harsh Finland winters. It's why I'm currently running some Hakka R3s on my car.

Nokians all the way. IMO they're well worth the money, they're a top tier tire made in Finland.

Solterra owner here, living at 6k feet in the Sierra/Tahoe area..Installed WRg5s a month ago and it's been icy, near the freezing point on several occasions now. Maybe its the Solterra traction control, maybe its the tires...maybe its the combination of both, but I've been testing in black and glazed ice on the roundabouts and the tight icy corners and they won't. break. loose!

They handle rain and snow pretty well... The worst was the ice storm down in Vancouver back in February. They did amazingly well for not being true snow tires and without studs

If you’re looking for a budget friendly option Nokian sells an all weather time you can drive year round the WRG4 which from my experience is better than the budget winter tires in terms of grip. Had them on my car for almost 5 years now and they’re still great

I would recommend the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 if you could get them.

I'm a little late to the discussion, but I had some Nokian all-weather tires for a couple years (on a Golf) they were better than all seasons, but definitely not as good as good winter tires in the, uh, winter.

Just wait until you try the Nokian Hakkapeliitta or Gislaved Nordfrost and realize that Blizzaks are mediocre at best.
