    R3 on my CLS63 by recommendation as I asked for the best winter tyres given no 4matic and 550hk/800Nm - very very pleased. After 2000 km in different conditions, I’m really impressed by the performance.

    I have owned Dunlop, Bridgestone, Pirelli and these Nokian Winter tires. There is a distinct difference between the others and these. While the other 3 can plow you through snow like no one's business, the Nokians are all finesse. They are elegant tires, providing a silky smooth Winter driving experience no matter the specific condition. I would never consider anything else for my G550. Truly amazing.

      Would you prefer R3 or R5? I am thinking to get R3 since better deals are out there.

    I got these tires on my skoda superb 4x4 and I love them. I try today to drift on wet snow and it was now easy. Just got pushed back in the seat and off we go. The grip is crazy. Also 110kmh in a corner in full winter road is no problem 😍

    I picked these up for my GR86 and they are incredible so far. Rolling resistance is so little that these drive better than my summers in a straight line and the grip on snow is incredible compared to my unstudded General Altimax Arctic 12's. Gained 2 mpg and these still corner fairly well with minimal delay/squirm on steering, definitely don't handle like a summer tire but way better than any winter I've driven on.

    I’ve ran blizzaks and ice-3 on my bmws.. these Nokias tires are however the worst. On the X3 these drift the vehicle and I feel like I have no control. Grip is absolutely garbage. They are 2 winters old now, and they performed terribly even when new. Not sure if I have a bad batch of these or what.. but never again am I buying them

      They were suggested to me at a tire location here in Ontario, Canada. I've never heard of them, for some reason. They are the most expensive of all the tires they quoted me but based on their reviews, I think I'll get them.

    I have the R2s. Are these as 'squirmy' as those in the dry? Otherwise an amazing tire I agree.

    • @valde3336
      @valde3336 3 роки тому +2

      Maybe slightly less. I used to have R2:s and now have R3. But use more tire pressure to help with this. Nokian says to use 0.2bar, 20kPa or 3psi more than what car manufacturer says but you can use even more.

    You know, it would make much more sense (since you're doing a tire-test, not a car-test) to test these tires on a rear wheel drive or front wheel drive vehicle. AWD-cars already have a major traction advantage and you'd probably achieve a decent test result even with average all-season tires. The question is, how much traction do these things provide on a less capable rear wheel drive vehicle for example.
