You have to understand that for the previous 7 years I have been driving the "all-weather" MICHELIN Latitude. The tires are excellent, no doubt, but when, after seven winters, you change into winter tires practically on summer tires . It's just some kind of fairy tale! My entire driving skill has tripled at least. Without a relative comparison (and I don’t have the opportunity to compare different tires), of course, the review is meaningless, but I recommend buying it. There is not a lot of snow in St. Petersburg now, but ice is constantly found. With a car mass of ~ 2300 kg, the difference is simply catastrophic. The conclusion is simple: MICHELIN for the summer, NOKIAN for the winter. On asphalt, of course, it makes noise. And pretty strong. But if you look at it from a security point of view, then spit on these noises twenty times over.
