Tires Tesla or Nokia

Laughs in Nokian winter tires ????

Love the traction and the control I have with M3P on my winter setup.

However, we had our first serious snow last night. The crappy roads, coupled with the low (mid-20’s F) killed my charge way faster than expected. I’m not too worried about it since I mainly charge at home but I only got about 340 wh/mile instead of my usual 260 or so over about 200 miles doing uber.

winter tires are absolutely 100% worth it. my personal recommendations are studded nokian hakkapelita r2s, drove on them without abs or traction control in an icy -40 alberta winter without worry.

I decided to get some Nokian Hakkapeliittas for my 03 wrx when I bought it, and I\u2019ve never once regretted that decision. I have to purposely fight to lose traction in any snow when I want to have fun.

I've been happy with all-weather (different from all-season tires) made by Nordman or Nokian tires. I use Nokain WRG4s. They are great for wet roads and some snow, but can have issues if the snow gets really packed down and slick. I find my tires maintain their thread life fairly well although you'll get less cumulative life out of them compared to switching between summer/winter tires.

I had R3s on my previous vehicle (Tesla M3) and they were fantastic...I can only imagine the R5s are even better. They made a HUGE difference here in the Dakota winters.

Can verify this as true and correct! It is a stupid and hilarious machine in the snow. Mine is on Nokian R5s and I look forward to the snow each year.

Best winter tires Nokian Hakkapeliitta R5, Continental VikingContact 7/8 but after third year I felt they lost little ice breaking power, Pirelli Ice Zero were also good to me.

I just slapped a set of Nokian Ones on my 2015 Civic and they seem to be a very good compromise to have more of a true all-season with decent snow potential. They're a tiny bit louder than my old Continentals and feel a bit more wiggly, but I assume that's one of the tradeoffs to have a bit more winter capability.

That is the tread of my Nokain Hakkapellita tire, sitting on the side of the highway after blowing off the tire at highway speeds.

This is my winter car, a Subaru Impreza. Nokian Hakkapellita winter tires stay on the car year round, as it only gets driven in the winter months. The tires are 3 years old.

I decided to start the car up and take it for a drive one night in late September, thinking nothing of the tires. I made it about 15 minutes into my drive before BANG, my front drivers side tire tread completely disconnected from the tire, and the sidewall blew apart.

I was driving about 110km/h when this happened and the car almost rolled before I got it back under control.

When I went back up to retrieve the car the next day, the amount of dry rot on the tires was mind blowing. These 3 year old tires had completely dry rotted out over the course of the summer without me thinking to even have a look.
