Nokian WR D3 work very well on dry road surface- they behave like summer tyres. I did not notice any problems with the grip and tracktion on wet road surface as well. They grip nicely even in the mud and snow. They start to rumble with the speeds of 80-90MPH but not a big issue at all. Nokian WR D3 are quite stiff. Very good tyres for a reasonable price. I Recommend Nokian WR D3!

I bought a set of these just after they were released, before there were any reviews. I've been very happy with them. My previous set of summer tyres wore out last year so I have been using them all year. They have very soft sidewalls, I am not sure why some people say they are stiff. They are comfortable and reasonably quiet. The wet grip is not particularly great, but I have had far worse tyres in the wet: Michelin Energy on this car. They are far better than Goodyear eagle F1s in the wet below about 7C! The dry grip is reasonable. They work fine in the summer without wearing badly. they are great in the winter. they have surprisingly low rolling resistance, a bit lower than my old Michelin Energies! The treadwear is also very good. I will be using them all year in the UK now, they are OK in the summer, when tyres have much better grip anyway, and very good in the winter when things tend to be more slippery.

I bought set of four Nokian VRd3 winter print and can say this is the best choice for this price! Before them I had Good Year UG7 witch is better tyre but the price too. The Nokian is perfect on wet and dry asphalt, very good grip and breaking. Comfortable with a low noise level at all.

For this price Nokian WR D3 is one of the best choices and in addition they look nice. I used them for 4 seasons. From my experience I can say that after 4 seasons this tyre lost a lot from its quality. I dont know if every winter tyre has this phenomenon, but the rubber is gettinguseles faster than in summer tyres. Nokian WR D3 are very good. The quality is very high despite the fact that they are produced in Russia. Nokian WR D3 is a very good tyre and the technologies applied are high-class.

I got Nokian WR D3 by the size 185/60/14 82T Russian production. In its opinion, I will only refer to other winter tires which i was using, and were using Goodyear UltraGrip 6, Fulda Kristall Montero, Kleber Krisalp HP and BFGoodrich Winter GForce. I chose this tire because judging from reviews of the users, the price and the fact that in tests has been assessed as a versatile tire, made it look very good. Upon delivery their appearence is disappointing. Definitely do not look like the premium class. There were no problems with balancing. The Nokian WR D3 is rather quiet. more quiet than Goodyear, but louder than Kleber and BFGoodrich that I have on 2 other cars. Braking, steering, road grip on both wet and dry conditions is very much in order, and the best of all the tires we had. In this respect. Perhaps in the Continental test it comes out better, but the tests aren't always objective. In addition, the road is not a test track and the differences of 0.5 or 1 m for the average user are virtually unnoticeable. Pretty good with suppressing road inequalities. I can safely recommend this tire, even to those who ride quite aggressively. The tire behaves predictably, and well, you can sense when its grip ends. For the price I am most pleased. In my opinion, rivaling performance tire Goodyear and Continental tyres for less money, but slightly worse looks. If someone depends on making the best ratio quality / durability / price it would be a good choice.

Nokian WR D3 is a very soft tyre. The presure that I had in my Nokians was 2.2 bars and my car was swimming a bit but I solved it by puting the air presure inside y tyre to 2.4 bar. The behavior on wet road surface could be better because right now I'm not fully satisfied. On the dry tarmac they are sufficient but a winter tire would never be as good as summer tyre (on dry road surface). I never had the oportunity to drive on the snow with them so it is hard for me to judge. I drove a bit on ice but I wasn't so excited. To conclude: Nokian WR D3 is a good winter tyre but no revelation.

I have bought Nokian WR D3 at the beginning of winter. I have decided on them in August, because I had previously Debica Frigo 2 and over time they lost its driveability. I wanted to buy something better, more reliable. From my experience, I can assure, taht these tyres have great grip on snow and slush. I was positively surprised on wet surfaceces because Nokians has great grip. During the emergency brakinges tyres stick to the road and it brakes immediately. I am very impressed with these tyres as the winter tyres and they are one of the best winter tyres I have ever had. I fully recommend them for all drivers.

Translation

I bought the tires due to the positive assessment of the users. It looks nice on the outside and ujeżdżonym snow quite well it performs. I'm driving for 96 years and this winter I ran twice on these tires in an uncontrolled skid. Slip occurred in the city at the turn (90 degrees) at time 0 C temperature once at about 3. I go quietly, but pull away at these temperatures for asphalt pavement when it is overcast (not raining !!!) is a tragedy. After that the company expected a better performance. This is my first and last purchase this brand of tires:-(
