Review on Nokian Tires Nordman 8 205/55 R16 94T winter by Adam Kulesza ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I really like the product, it fully meets my expectations.

purchased 185/65/15. I must add right away that we chose our tires based on our budget and quality/price considerations, as do the majority of drivers. They read the reviews, but they didn't pay much heed because no matter what "review" you open, there will always be people who don't like "rubber," no matter who made it. They drew attention to the tire's seemingly thin walls while purchasing it, despite thickness measurements showing an average of 7-8 mm, similar to the Hakkapelit 8 that is no longer produced. Although the merchant claimed that Nordmann has more synthetic rubber for less wear when driving on asphalt, it appears that the product in general is the same. I like how many spikes there are and the tread itself. The road holds up well. Additionally, rides without incident on wet snow. Not yet tested it on ice. supple for fast-cornering turns. However, this is a budget "rubber" rather than a rubber for racing vehicles. Although we continue to use it, the noise seems to have lessened after installation (15 days have gone, and we have traveled roughly 250 miles). Or maybe we've just become accustomed to it.

Pros
  • Number of studs, tread, and softness are good for holding the road.
Cons
  • Noisy. When driving on asphalt during the break-in, the cabin began to rattle.
