Great Tires

These are great tires for the Winter, from October through April the only tires for my Honda Fit??'?

I like the tires but on a previous purchase I opted for the road hazard warranty. I've been over a month trying to get it taken care of. I keep getting asked for the same things I sent them. Would not recommend the road hazard warranty warranty

Almost put on studs I have, but found these worked great, just had to brake sooner.

I lived at the Alpental ski area while communiting to Seattle for 8 years and drove up to 40,000 a year for 8 years so I've tried lots of snow tires on 2 wheel drive cars where you need all the help you can get. I pooh-poohed the fancier snow tires because they mostly looked alike and I was convinced studded tires fixed everything. But in my quest to keep successfully commuting up mountian passes in my 2 wheel drive diesel car I tried the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3's and am Super Impressed and they are the best rain tire ever also. They even will take more power than my good summer tires that would spin the during roll on power in 1-3rd gears in my moded Jetta TDI, but they didn't corner or brakes as well when pushed but in rain or snow they were unmatched. Plus they lasted way longer than I expected.

Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3 tires are THE best I've ever had. They are fantastic on dry, wet, snowy/icy roads. I've marveled at the quiet, comfortable ride and the treadwear has been minimal. I am thoroughly satisfied with them. You will not find a better tire out there. I've tried more than a few different tires and Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3s are far and away the best. Do yourself a favor and invest in the best -- Nokian Hakkapeliitta R3.

Loud compared to all seasons, as expected. Soft so wear faster than all seasons, also expected for a winter tire. But damn if these don't get you through a blizzard confidently and safely. Love 'em.

Better than any other winter tire I've tried. They are noticeably softer. So they may not last as long as blizzaks or similar. But they will be better throughout their life.

Great winter tires. Driving in mid-Michigan, between two small cities with semi-rural country in the middle. City streets are usually plowed and salted, but the county road in between sometimes has hard-packed snow. Weather is usually between 0 and 20F, but occasionally in the 30-40F range, just long enough to create water puddles. These tires have performed well in all those conditions: dry (bare, salted pavement), hard-packed snow, and wet. Acceleration, turning, and braking all feel crisp and confident in all conditions. Have not yet driven at highway speeds. My top speed has been 55 mph on county roads. Have only owned for 2 months, so cannot comment on treadwear.
