My car needs good, reliable tyres for both on- and off-road driving. I was looking for such for a long time and eventually came across Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV. I heard many positive opinions about them, so I decided to get those and fit the immediately after purchase. They positively surprised me with their driving properties, as they behave on snow and ice almost like on dry surface! Rain is also not a problem - Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV keeps its grip and also disperses water fast. They are quiet and comfortable, even more comfortable than my summer tyres. I know I made a good decision getting these tyres, and I will not hesitate to buy them again.

I have been looking for good 4x4 tyre which would cope with all winter conditions. My brother recommended Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV to me stating he had them and was very pleased. I followed his advice and got a set for my car. My first impression after driving for the first time on them was very positive. The car sticks to the road like glue, and the traction does not break at all. The car keeps its lane in the corners, regardless of surface type - rain, snow or ice is not a problem. Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV are also quiet and absorb bumps nicely - I never had such comfortable winter tyres. I definitely recommend - worth every penny spent on them.

When I went on a trip to Italy, to the mountains of Trentino, I asked my tyre dealer if the tyres that I had on the car at the moment were suitable for the trip. However, he offered me to buy and replace my current tyres with Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV, guaranteeing reliability and good traction of my SUV, specifically on such roads as the one I was about to drive on in Italy. At this point I gave up and bought these tyres. I’m back after two weeks of vacation now. Driving through numerous Italian roads, I haven’t had any problems on ice and snow, and fuel consumption was really low due to the low rolling resistance. Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV is a tyre with special characteristics which make it suitable for use when the pavement is extraordinarily snowy or icy, ensuring better grip than the other tyres. This tyre is a guarantee of good quality at a decent price.

For a long time, I have been using Chinese winter tyres because they were cheaper, and then I heard about Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV from my trusted mechanic. He recommended those tyres to me because he has heard many positive comments from his customers. I bought them, and I must say that they are much better and more comfortable on both wet and snow than my previous tyres. With these, I can combine good price with high quality. I drive in the mountains on snow a lot and the roads are often very rough. I have to say that I have had no problems with Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV on such roads, in fact, they grip perfectly even when cornering and do not fall into a slide on wet. This tyre outclasses other winter tyres ni every way and on every surface. Simply excellent.

I wanted to get tyres for use in all conditions and in light terrain in winter. I got Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV recommended by my tyre fitter, who also has a Freelander. I bought them and I know it was a good decision. The tyre is simply great. Water, snow, slush - they all are no match for these tyres. Even icy roads were not a problem. The tyre also does a good job in light off-road driving. I often have to go off-road in order to get to some places, and this tyre is what I have been looking for. I know that my next purchase will also be Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV.

I only did a thousand miles or so on Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV, but they are so sensational that they can throw the snow up to my side mirrors. They aren't very quiet, but it's the only drawback you forget about due to a large number of advantages. They are great even on ice! I definitely recommend!

For me, these tyres are simply great. I bought them after reading many positive reviews. Shortly after fitting them, I had an emergency situation, where I had to brake suddenly and I must admit that I was very pleasantly surprised. Although it is a winter tyre with high performance properties, it has a great braking distance, much better than any of my previous tyres. Driving on wet roads is also very confident. Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV do a really great job on snow as well. I have not tested them on ice, so I gave them an average note. Driving comfort, noise level, wear and the rest is simply excellent, as it should be in a good brand tyre. If I had to choose again, I would choose Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV without hesitation.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV do not have any problems on wet and dry surface - they are very quiet and provide good performance. They behave extremely well on wet pavement - full control of the car, predictability, unbreakable traction. The car also behaves well on ice. Slush and snow drifts are not a problem as well, Nokian Hakkapeliitta R SUV are stable and fully controllable in all conditions. I was very pleasantly surprised with them. I definitely recommend these tyres as they are very good tyres for decent money.
