Review on Nokian Tires Nordman 7 205/55 R16 94T winter by Micha Jakubek ᠌

I'm basing my observations on the current weather on a front-wheel drive, Dimension 185/60 R15, automobile in Hong Kong time -1.+4. I covered 800-900 kilometres. The rumble then was absolutely unpleasant, but now that I've drove 1200 kilometers, it's gotten a little quieter. As previously said, stopping on asphalt is unpleasant because it is difficult to forecast deceleration; with the same amount of pedal pressure, it can sufficiently slow down or go further, so you must push harder (which is why I brake on it beforehand). A clear zero on the steering wheel is lost with increasing speed, driving faster than 130 km/h is uncomfortable, there is little feedback, the reactions to the steering wheel are lubricated, and there is a tendency to demolition in turns due to the rubber being wadded (like the previous Nokian in various degrees of wadding). Slippage happens at first: it happens less frequently on dry asphalt and more frequently on wet asphalt. While it was running in, it slipped a lot, even though I didn't press it very hard. The lamellas are intact, the spikes are all in place, and everything around the spikes is likewise in place, so from the standpoint of strength, there are no issues. If you keep going straight, porridge rides well on water and snow. At -1.0, braking and steering response much improve. Tires, in my opinion, are not necessary for those who live in megacities where the majority of the driving is done on dry or wet asphalt. The spikes and tread pattern suggest that it will manifest itself well along country roads in sparsely populated locations with low temperatures. And certainly, some claim that this rubber is a knockoff of Hakki 7; nevertheless, this claim is absurd; Nordman's second division Nokian accounts for the higher price and inferior qualities. I'll swap mine out for tires from the top category.
