My Challenger is an absolute beast with Nokian Hakkapeliittas, (rwd,v8, manual).
i just went from 235/55 Wildpeaks (my 3-season tires) on the stock 17x8-inch rims to 215/60 Nokian R5's on 17x6.5 rims for winter on a lifted VB. My weight per corner went from 54/lbs to 41lbs.
I just tried it and the steering feels lighter; it tracks better on the highway; and it's quieter.
I have Nokian WRG4's on my 2015 Honda Accord and it feels glued to the road. I have been using it as my ski vehicle the last couple years and it has performed great with those tires.
Nokian , which is a company from Finland, makes excellent "all weather" tires if you live in areas that get snow. Basically a tire that is good in the snow like a snow tire but is made to be left on all year. Yokohama is a Japanese company that makes excellent tires at a low to mid price point. My wife's van needed tires badly and our budget was tight at the time, so I ordered some $77 each "Crossmax" tires from Walmart and I've been pleasantly surprised. They've been on the van 2 years and no complaints.
I have been using Nokians for many years. They offer excellent traction in snow and are long—Lasting.
I have a set of winter wheels/tires. I can swap them myself in 20 minutes for free.\n\nNokian Hakkapeliitta R5 SUV 225/55R18XL 102R BSW ($183.80/each)
If you want something that lasts longer than Blizzaks but still handles snow incredibly well, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 is the other top pick. Both completely change your confidence on hills and side streets.
I just put the Nokian Hakkapelitta R5SUV tires on my R1S (also in Colorado). You can put those on the 22" wheels. I will put my Pirellis back on for summer driving.
Apparently they perform well which must be true since their winter tires are very popular where I live too. It is just the quality of the material itself that's awful.
Typical Nokian lol. They are garbage and most of them end up like this. The small cracks aren't too bad but the big one that goes around the side is concerning
