Nokian Tyres WR G2 - User reviews

I would like to point out that for me Nokian WR G2 is a perfect tyre. Although this 07/08 winter season did not give me too many oportunities to test their snow performance I think that next season I will use my WR G2 once again and I am sure that they will peform aboslutely splenind next year as well. Very good performance on dry/wet road surface - 0 surppises. The same goes with the noise level which is absolutely barely noticable. They are way more silent than my previous Dunlops. To be absolutely honest, I had some problems with balancing my new Nokian WR G2. IN october I bought new steel wheels and tyres to fit those and in my fitting station they were trying to balance them for about 2-3 hours. The pressure was arround 5 bar but the tyre did not want to fit the rim. I think that it might be the issue with the steel wheel not with the tyres but I did not investigate that case any further.

This is my third set of Nokian tyres. In my private car I have winter tyres Nokian W, for the summer I have Nokian V. For my company car I also bought Nokian, WR G2 model. I overdrove many different tyres' sets and in comparison with other tyres Nokian come out well. From the all mentioned I have slight obligations only to the W model. It is slightly too soft on the dry surface. Besides, it is perfect. I think I will stay faithful to this label for the long time.

Nokian WR G2 are really good on the dry and the wet asphalt. Compared to the GY UltraGrip Performance which I had in the size of 225/45 R17H, the difference is definitely to the advantage of Nokian. On the snow it is mediocre, although there were not many opportunities to test that. In comparison to Uniroyal MS Plus 66 215/60 R16H (not pretty fair comparison) braking on the compacted, frosted snow was much worse (the test in the lapse of 15 min. on the same distance). The main drawback is the noise - unfortunately, they are exceptionally loud. Summing up, very good tyres for the fast car and the winter in the city. For its' price it was an absolute hit.

Translation

Tyres revelation, the change from summer to winter - complete silence, low rolling resistance. Rides on the snow a little but within reason. Hockey worse. In the end these are the tyres for the winter and in the winter, no one enters a turn for Stow on the counter. I would recommend, good value price - quality

Previosuly, I drove on Goodyear Ultragrip 6. After the change for Nokian WR G2 - there is a huge difference. They hold in the bends on the snow as in the rails, very quiet. Their advantage is that they are not directional. I drive back to the garage up the 20 degrees' slope and the tyres hold the car as if it was sticked. On the previous ones I drove downhill as if I were on the sledge in spite of braking, praying to fit in the gate. I highly recommend! My summer tyres are also Nokian.
