Tires SUMITOMO or Nokia

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 just got some Sumitomos replaced with about 40,000 mi on them which probably still had 20 to go and were still gripping great but just a little bit noisy. They are the parents company of Falken. They are a great brand as far as longevity and grip. I'm currently using Laufenn which are a sub brand of Hankook which cost me under $90 a corner and I am so pleased that I'm considering putting them on my second car. This mid-tier brand has been just as if not more pleasant in the realm of noise and on center road feel at speed than Michelin Defenders I had just a month ago on a car we sold. My Laufenns will probably have only half of the tread life of the Michelins I used to have, but at only half the price and the feel on the road is identical but I'm sure the performance is a little bit less. We do have close to bottom tier on a car that is new to us which is a Douglas brand and it'll be good for the next year but it is an unpleasant tire. It's loud and doesn't feel like it tracks well. But it does grip well enough to push the replacement date out a year since they were manufactured this year.

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.

We have two Model Y’s in Alaska and I buy Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5 EV winter studless tires. I’ve always used studless winter tires on my Subarus and now we use them on our teslas. They’re pricey—I paid $1,850 for the set (not installed, and no rims) a couple months ago. We keep them on November through March and they typically last at least 3 winters.

I drove on mine up to the base of mount Seymour a couple days ago before the plow started clearing the road. However I made it fairly easily to the first parking area and had to park as I wouldn’t make it to the lodge parking. Made it down without issue too. On fresh snow I found them a bit squirrelly but nothing too bad.

Nokia ones were like driving a chainsaw on a kettle.
