Tires Nokia or Triangle

I have been running snows for over 30 years and the only ones I have ever had that are the quietest, are the Nokian Rotiiva AT. Not perfect, but leaps and bounds better than everything else I have run.

I have only used the Nokian's on that list.

I have Nokian Hakkapeliitta studded tires for my VR6 CC here in Alaska. They’re expensive but they make driving an absolute dream during the long winters.

Highly recommend Nokian all weather tires.

Honestly the Nokian WRG4 is a fantastic all weather tire. I feel like you either put the tire through some rough terrain that it's not meant for. Or you legitimately got a bad batch of tires.

Go with Nokian Hakks.

I run studded Hakks on two of my cars, best winter tires I've ever had.

If Hakka R3 is available in your size, buy Hakka R3 and don't consider anything else. They really are that good. I've had R2 and R3, both amazing.

I've had my Hakka 7s on my Mazda3 since 2014 (so going on 7 winters now). They're showing their age but not their wear. Mine are studded (as all 7s are) and I love the fact that they offer exceptional performance on snow and on ice.

I have Hakka R2's on my Golf R and they are spectacular. Zero complaints, other than the price. To me they are the Pilot Sport 4S of the winter tire market: if you have unlimited budget you just buy them.

I personally know they are trash. Great advertising, poor engineering. Stay clear of Blizzaks and get Nokian.
