Review on Nokian Tires Hakkapeliitta R3 195/65 R15 95R winter by Michal Wasowicz

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Normal quality, you can use it.

Before making the switch to a mono-drive vehicle, I deliberated at length on what tires to purchase. This tire was chosen as the best option. It was then that the question "Who, if not the Finns, know what winter is?" entered my mind. In most cases, it acts normally regardless of the state of the roads. Similar to how Velcro rolls even when it's freezing outside. Didn't get mired down in any mud. But there is one caveat, and that ruins the whole enterprise. In just one season, we lost 2 mm of tread on the front axle (a 6 appeared), while the rear axle maintained 8 mm. Winter mileage is typically around 5,000 km, with 90% of that being in urban areas.

Pros
  • Strong rowing
Cons
  • resistance to wear
