By far the best snow tire I have owned. I have had Blizzaks (on a Honda Fit) and these are better in snow (The Fit has the Hakkapeliitta 9s now). They made it so my two wheel drive truck is able to go up my driveway without a problem. I can even stop part way up and start again! With all seasons it couldn't do it without out a running start and forget about trying to start on the driveway. I will be replacing the tires on my Ford Flex with these for next year. The only con I have is express way driving. They really are not a great tire above 65 on dry roads the handling of the Fit would best be described as "like driving on gravel" I think it is the studs that cause that and it doesn't bother me as most of my driving is not on the expressways. If you drive rural/ poorly plowed roads though these are the tires I would recommend.

Get technical:
A studded winter tire, the Hakkapeliitta 8 SUV Studded from Nokian is designed for use on CUVs, SUVs, and light trucks and offers drivers better traction and stability in severe winter weather conditions.
Features & Benefits
- Winter tread design
- Black sidewall
- Three Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol means this tire is certified to perform in severe snow conditions
- Pinned with studs to further enhance traction and performance in severe winter weather conditions
- Built with a low rolling resistance design that enhance fuel efficiency and ride comfort
Winter weather often brings lower temperatures, ice, slush, and snow with it, so finding a tire that can stand up to these unforgiving elements becomes incredibly important. Fortunately, winter tires are built to conquer winter weather conditions, and the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 SUV Studded does that and more for drivers of coupes and sedans. The Hakkapeliitta 8 SUV Studded's tread compound is built with flexible materials for consistent grip and performance in low temperatures, and diagonal 3D sipes work with the tire's tread design to improve steering response. Brake Booster technology within the Hakkapeliitta 8 SUV Studded's tread blocks allow for shorter braking distances, especially on snowy surfaces, and a low rolling resistance design is meant to reduce fuel consumption while also enhancing ride comfort for drivers and passengers. The Hakkapeliitta 8 SUV Studded can be pinned with studs to further enhance traction in severe winter weather conditions, and features a Three Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol thanks to its ability to perform in severe snow conditions.
