Nokian Tyres...

Anybody run with Nokian Tyres? Since I can't get the Goodyears I was originally looking for I started searching again and came across some Nokian WR's. From what I can see they get good reviews and seem to be a great all around tire. Just wondering if anybody's had any experience with them.

Thanks,

Matt

Hands down one of the best winter tires out there. A number of rally teams use them.

Well, I broke down today and got a set of WR's for the Neon. The WR's are Nokian's All Weather tire. They're an all season tire that also has the snowflake rating as a winter tire. Overall they ride great, nice an smooth, although when cornering they tend to give a bit more than my old Uniroyals did and react a hair slower. Eitherway they're exactly what I need for my car at the moment, and Kal Tire was more than professional with the install

Funny that in researching them, they actually got a as good if not a better rating in ice and snow than a set of blizzaks

Would you like me to go bold out where I used TIRE everywhere else except in the company name.

For fuck sakes, some people have nothing better to do....
