Tires Nokia or Vredestein

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

Just got a set installed on my 2016 Prius c at 40k miles. Good so far compared to the stock tires, but haven't tried them in winter conditions yet. They seem a bit quieter than the stock tires and they seem to handle better than the stock tires. Rolling resistance also seems surprisingly low, given they aren't "eco" tires like the stock tires were.

Had a set of the Quatrac 4's on the wife's Focus while in Germany. These did well in wet, snow, and ice. Were quiet on the Autobahn and handled very well, totally stable at speed.

Put these on my wife’s car (2011 Sonata 2.0T) and they’re great. Quiet, handle well, do good in all weather. Plus they’re relatively cheap in comparison.

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 can echo the feelings of the dry pavement handling, coming around a corner with a bit of enthusiasm you can feel the car start to slide around. I'm sure once the snow and ice come the trade-off will be justified, but fairly unnerving in the dry to say the least.
