Review on Nokian Tires Hakkapeliitta 9 205/55 R16 94T winter by Mateusz Majchrzak ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Poor product, the quality is below average.

Since October, I've been behind the wheel of a Haas 9. Noise from the rubber, that's fine with me. I do a lot of traveling on city streets, highways outside of the city, and roads in the surrounding villages. Rubber, according to many people, has the ability to "hold the road," meaning that it both slows down rapidly and holds corners. It does not decelerate as much as the 2022 manufacturer, but it can start up a little bit better. The stability control system is the only thing that preserves it, not hack 9, and it's not the rubber that keeps the turns. On the track by itself, it is nerve-racking to pass on them because you get the sensation that you are ready to get into a skid; I was so terrified that even the cardian could not help me calm down. On snow rows, there is a certain amount of slippage. I tried to drive up the mountain, but nothing occurred; I almost reached the top from acceleration, but I slipped just before the finish line. The city has one very steep ascent, and I tried to drive up it once but failed. Even Vaz 4 was able to drive in without any issues, leading me to believe that he does not have anything on his bucket that is higher than the old kama. Around the spikes, the rubber has already worn away and broken off in shards; as a result, there is a depression in that area. Although I noticed that it was already missing and that some spikes had flown off, I did not precisely look at the wheel. Under the terms of the guarantee, new spikes will not be fitted. In favorable weather, the rubber was not like soft cotton wool; everything was fine, it was not afraid of puddles, and it moved boldly and quickly; however, this only applies when the weather is favorable. On the other hand, as winter tires, there were a few letdowns, and I do not believe that it was money well spent. To do this, the price needs to be reduced by at least three and a half times. Perhaps this year we will see a different winter, with different ice and snow, roads, or something else that will cause some people to be dissatisfied with rubber while others will be pleased with such rubber. Both the first and the last haka were performed. If you value your life and want to continue living, you should pick a strategy that is more effective than choosing that route, especially if you frequently commute along the highway.

Pros
