I have a 25 TRD Sport, went with P285/70/17 Toyo Open Country with Methods. The stock Wheels and Tires were 67lbs the new setup is 72lbs only a 5lb increase, I noticed zero change in mpg, life average 21.7.
Purchased nokian Hakkapellitta R5's for my 98 ford taurus wagon. I will never recommend another tire, would only reccomend studded hakka's. I drive the 881 up north to conklin and back south to cold lake every 2 weeks (2 on 2 off shift) these wheels have 100% given me a false sense of security on the road because I am yet to lose any form of traction even starting from a stop sign on an incline.
Nokian hakkapeliitta r5s on the crosstrek made easy work
AWD with winter tires is like a cheat code for winter driving. I used Nokian Hakkas on my old Audi and it made winter driving actually fun and enjoyable.
Moved here from Ontario last month and bought my first pair of proper winter tires, studded Nokian Hakkas. Legit night and day difference from the all seasons I had before on my AWD Outback
Studded Nokians beat everything. I\u2019ll never buy anything else! But the Michelins are a great tire.
Nokian Hakkapeliitas for me. Studded tires are the bomb when weather goes to poop. My Chevy Cruze beater out performs my husband\u2019s F-150 with 4x4 and all-weathers.
Now, here is the weak link for the CCX-70- and CX-90: The factory tires (Toyo Open Country A51 on our CX-70) are highway touring tread, only 8/32" tread depth brand new, and a very tame and dry pavement oriented tread pattern designed for quiet ride. We live in the midwest and I am kicking around swapping out the tires, but therein lies another constraint, at least on our model: It has 19" rims and factory installed Toyo's are 265/55R19 size (109V load rating). That is an oddball/rare tire size.
I had a pair of Nokian one with the exact same problem. Won’t buy Nokian again
Nokia ones were like driving a chainsaw on a kettle.
