Excellent! I put them on after having Michelin tyres, it is like comparing riding a horse wagon on the iron rims to driving the Bentley.

The very next day after the founding of Nokian WR A3 I was able to find out about the qualities of the product. I think about the previous weekend, which paralyzed traffic on the roads due to snow and drivers who had not switched in time for winter tyres. When they drove onto a speed of 20-25 miles / h, me not charging on the icy snow drove the inner belt at 45-50 miles / h Sure, this ain't no mean feat, but I felt confident and safe in these tyres, the car was going where I wanted, and not just where it wanted to .... In addition, there were no problems in entering a fairly steep driveway, which was partly icy and not cleared of snow. Recommended.

I will describe it this way. While driving through the winter not even once I felt that the car did not stick to the road.And that's the main point.

Nokian WR A3, very new model from Nokian - the inventor of winter/snow tyres. I was amazed when I saw them available in Oponeo for such a good price. Nokian is the leader in winter tyre technologies/novelties. One of their model is going to have automatically sitchable tyre nails. Just insane. I have to say that with my Renault Laguna I had lovely times while using Nokian WR A3. I had no problems at any speeds. The quicker I get was 118 mph and still I felt pretty comfortable on those. TO be honest while using Nokian WR A3 my abs did not turn on even once. Absolutely amazing performance. I would definitely recommend those to be your new and better winter tyre.

Nokian WR A3 are cool, well kept traction in various road conditions. After all it is made by the Finns, it is well-known what are the conditions out there to drive in winter. Recommend this to everyone.

I have bought my Laguna III last autumn and as I have saved some money I thought that I will buy new winter tyres as the winter is about to come. I am not a racing driver so 110 mph is an absolute max for me. My Nokian WR A3 were in the size 215/50R17 and I have to say that I have heard a lot of good reviews about this size and that type of tyre so I have decided that I will give it a go. This tyre is an absolute phenomenon with speeds of 60-80 mph. I feel pretty comfortable, and also I am not afraid of giving my car to my wife while she goes to school with kids. Pretty amazing tyre I have to admit. Nokian WR A3 is worth my recomendation for sure.

Competition can only hide. Have not ridden a better winter tyres than Nokian WR A3. I feel sorry for goodyear riders, I had one and I won't be tempted again. For the same price I got the Nokian WR A3. Even a bit cheaper, and you feel like riding on the tires at least one class higher. No wonder why. Few people know that the company Nokian was the first one to produce winter tyres ever, and that the ice speed record was beaten on the Nokian tyre (330km/ h). Congratulations on your purchase and I hope you will share my opinion on Nokian WR A3.

Used last 3 years, combined with audi Quattro system hard to tell difference between summer driving at legal speeds. Total confidence in wet, slush & snow. Even with nearly 500bhp hardly any wheel spin unless provoked. Considerably cheaper than ( larger summer tyres) makes economic sense as well as providing added safety. Surprised that ride not noticeably better than lower profile summer tyres, but that may be due to higher recommended pressure. Would definitely recommend, but may try something different out of curiosity next time.

I have these tyres on all year round. Good on wear - city/motorway/country... never let me down in any weather condition. Never look back - this is a great tyre. Really catches out other drivers though, when they're trying to follow me on their more inferior tyre choice. This old Ford really shows up the latest Merc in such conditions :-)

i have been using these tyres on my subaru impreza since november and they have not missed a beat, as i am living in the french alpes for the winter i wanted a good tyre for my car so chose these and have not been disappointed once. have driven in over a foot of snow with out the tyres slipping once and not needing snow chains where many other cars have failed i carried on like there was no snow on the road, on ice they grip as good as any winter tyre does and have now done many miles in them and they still have many winter seasons of tread on them still.
