Nokian Tyres WR A3 - User reviews

Translation

My car has 260HP and a big moment. I needed a tire that will give me a good performance even in the winter. I'm not talking about racing, but in emergency situations, so that I can rely on them. I found it. When starting and braking does the job, even on icy roads. Unfortunately, after driving 7tys miles I have spent 1.5mm tread - but something for something. Some people write about the noise of the tire. It is loud but the car segment D I did not hear anything. It may well sound-proofed cabin? Suppression of inequality also can not evaluate well because the car has hardened suspension and assessment will be unreliable. I bought this tire because of the good value for money. Tires Dunlop / Pirelli / Goodyear are overrated. Paying attention to whether the tire is produced in Russia or Finland-for mnei it mattered.

I only have two on the front. Nokian WR A3 can handle all conditions everywhere, water, mud, snow is nothing, only on ice ESP lights come up. The greatest thing about it is that it is a QUIET tyre. This has been the third week in our Galaxy (in winter we only do max 5tys.km)

In my opinion Nokian WR A3 is a very decent snow tyre. The advantages are: very silent and comfortable tyres I must say. In comparison to my previous Pirellis, Nokian WR A3 is way more silent that Pirelli. What is more they also suprised me with how good they perform not only in the snow, but also on dry tarmac. Very positive feelings with cornering. My car is not swimming like it usually was with my previous set. Very good, reasonable choice to go for. If you would like to have a good winter tyre than consider buying the Nokian WR A3. Definitely, Nokian WR A3 is a good snow tyre. The cons are: In my opinion Nokian WR A3 is not as easy to balance as other premium products. I think that they are wobbling a bit as the rubber components are lower quality in my opinion. I am very restrictive if it comes to tyre/steering wheel wobbling. On the very same alloys, I had my previous Pirelli and they fitted the wheel perfectly, without any issues and I had no wobbling at all. It was a bit harded with Nokian WR A3. Both of them: Nokians and Pirellis were fitted with use of exactely the same balancing machine. Besides, with the 17 inch diameter, I got that feeling that those tyres are not efficiently inflated.

A few seasons przejeździłem on its predecessor, the WR. I had no problems - in slush, snow, wet pavement (I happened to go on winter tyres to April ;-). I was thinking Continentalami, but gave up - the price is similar, and the risk of "teething" in the Ford C-Max - large. I chose a proven product.

It was the first new set of tyres in my new Accord Sedan. I had Hankook i-cept evo previously on my car but it was just a drama. I heard that Nokian WR A3 was previously manufactured in Finland but now it is Russia most probably. They perform absolutely awesome in winter conditions, there is no point where you could compare them to Hankooks which were stiff like a boner after 3 years (I have checked the DOT date). If the temperature goes up a bit like 6-7 cellssiuss then Nokian WR A3 seems to be a bit too soft but it is a strick snow tyre so I can understand that. The biggest disadvantage was that the balancing process took a bit longer than it used to but it is not that hard to blaance them like with all those budget chnese tyres. Also I had to balance them once again after 1.000 miles coz I got my steering wheel wobbling a bit. I have to say that Nokian WR A3 generally is a good winter tyre.

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 :-)

One of the best winter tires I have ever used, and I travel quite a bit - about 40 thousand miles a year. Recently I had Bridgestone winter tyres and I affirm that Nokian is so much better! I have had a really good comparison as I exchanged them in February. My car has about 200 horses and that is why there are problems with traction, but later - it is a poetry!

tyres really cool. I move S-maxem weighs so little toy car. I never tire failed. Maybe once appeared ABS light but given my driving style I am very satisfied. Cornering good to hold, toy car weighs a lot. S-Max is in full swing at the higher gears :) Probably not travel easily. The durability of the tire is sensational, I have them and tyre second season as new. The only drawback is that this tire that is a little loud, but omit the fact that it specifically because I do not mind. With a clear conscience recommend
