I’m a fan of Nokian brand. Finland knows snow and it shows in their tires. I’ve been using them for years and love having dedicated snow tires. After I had been using them for about 5 years, I talked my wife into getting a set for her car. She was mad I hadn’t talked her into it sooner.
the VREDESTEIN QUATRAC are 129 and served me very well. great in snow. technically an all season tire and they are a tiny bit loud. great tire though. great lifespan and if you’re having heavy snow and rain they work fantastically for VT winters
If you're commuting every day I'd for sure get the studded Hakkas.
All you need is good studded tires like Nokian and you will be fine.
I just bought Nokians for my S80, similar pattern. Certainly a great upgrade regardless!
Go with Nokian Hakkapellittas they dance circles around Pirelli’s.
Ich habe Nokian schon ein Jahr, bin sehr zufrieden.
Hab mit Nokian immer super Erfahrungen gemacht.
Had Michelin X-ice on my A3, didn’t like them in snow over 3”. Switched to Nokian hakkas, much better in snow but a lot noisier.
I am in no way a sensitive critic of tires and/or car handling, but these tires are absolutely TERRIBLE at highway speeds. Not sure how to describe it but with any slight steering change, the back end almost felt like it was drifting. It felt like it was floating back there. Even on a lane change, you could feel the back end almost have like a slight delay and then overcorrect and come back. It was very strange.
