Review on Nokian Tires Nordman RS2 SUV 225/65 R17 106R winter by Wiktor Getka ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

For the 2022 New Year's celebrations in Finland and Norway, 7000+ cars with 215/65 R16 tires will be on the road. Helsinki's cobblestone streets in the winter are coated with granite crumbs; in Norway, crushed gravel is placed over ice and asphalt; Hong Kong is flooded with chemicals. Rubber has no flaws and performs admirably as a rowing material and a braking material. Although it is slightly stiffer than the Hakkapeliitta R it mimics (which is the same size as Matushka's on the VW Tiguan), it appears to provide more assured braking on paved surfaces.

Pros
  • Regardless of what you're driving, you'll have superb road holding. It's not as fast as a nice studded one on ice, but it's still manageable. This rubber barely shows any signs of rutting. Ice drifts can be predicted and corrected with relative ease.
Cons
  • generates a rumbling sound on frozen surfaces.
