I've just taken these off to revert to summer option having covered just over 8,000 miles. Rear treads still just showing max 8mm and fronts down to 7mm which is excellent for wear on a heavy SUV. I like the built in numerical tread wear indicators which is very useful. Very positive fast steering response and quiet too. Whilst we hardly had any snow, grip when cold and on ice and in mud when off road is reassuring. One very fast emergency stop in wet conditions and again performed admirably. I needed new summer tyres and on the basis of my above comments I have purchased Nokian again and will review them in due course.

I have Mitsubishi Pajero Sport 2, 4x4 with manual locks. Driving in the city on a dry is a pleasure. On the wet it's exactly this same. The car holds on to the road very well. And now the best part: I was driving up the hill in 20-25ºC in deep sand – I was driving on these tyres and only I was able to get to the top with a friend of mine on the quad (of course quad was on other tyres). Lads in Uaz, Mercedes G (old model) and Ford Ranger didn't make it. While driving on the motorway 105mph the car also holds on to the road. I would definitely recommend this tyre to all. Previously I had a Bridgestone Dualer as the first equipment. The first rainfall after buying a car and in five minutes traction control on the asphalt saved me twice. The manufacturer has used the width of the tire to the maximum so the tread is literally from the edge to the edge of the balloon. When we look at the car from the behind it looks like I would wear a tyre two sizes wider.

These tyres offer astonishing levels of grip in both wet and dry conditions to the extent that I am now fitting them to all the family vehicles. I have a set on my Saab 9-3 convertible too and left them on both Summer and Winter and they seem to have coped admirably with being used all year around in the UK. I've used very expensive tyres in the past on my TVR sports car - Bridgestone, Pirelli, Good Year Eagle etc and to be honest I rate the Nokian higher! I'm not using anyone else's tyres going forward!

A friend suggested me to buy this model tires. Sam has such and is satisfied. Earlier I bought continental, michelin and I was not sure whether to opt for Nokian. However, when mounted on the Mazda I can confirm my opinions znajomego.Nie feel, with a August winter tires. Quiet, well attenuate inequality and reliable on the water, the snow .The dry conditions are characterized by Super Fine grip.

I have already had experience with Nokian always fantastic in all situations. These new Nokian not belie expectations, stick the car in any kind of way, they are quiet and extremely robust. The price is from Korean sottomarca, are not yet famous to the general public, but tires are of excellent quality. To choose with your eyes closed.

Fantastic performance through the winter. While others were slipping all over the place I never lost traction once. At one point I found myself stopped in a traffic jam of cars facing up hill on a fully snow covered road. Everyone else was struggling to move but I could simply set off without even a hint of wheel spin. A great tyre.

I would definitely recommend Nokian winter tires due to a very good grip during winter driving. On the route they are quiet. I ride mainly in the mountains but also from time to time on long journeys abroad. With the development of high speed on the highway I do not feel the difference that I have winter tires.

I drive on these to the Alps twice a year and worked well on 6 inches of fresh snow and slushy motorways. I lose about 4 mpg compared to summer tyres but small price to pay for tyres that probably saved my life in blizzard conditions.

The road to our house is 1/3rd mile long surfaced in gravel and uphill, for 2 weeks the road was a sheet of ice and snow I was astonished that the tyres did not loose grip once, up or down. I cannot fault these tyres.

Due to the short lifetime, I can say that it performs superbly and comfort in the wet cool. Goods really recommendable for this class of car.
