Review on Nokian Tires Hakkapeliitta R3 205/55 R16 94R winter by Wiktor Kosiorek ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The product is unreliable, it is not worth buying.

I made the mistake of buying a new pair of these fantastic tires in size 245/40r19 on original BMW 786m rims in my haste and foolishness. During the course of three months of normal operation, three side cuts were made in brand new tires when they were being driven on the Hong Kong Ring Road and its surrounding areas. The third party did not attempt to repair it and instead discarded it. The way in which they handle the BMW 530dx is beyond repugnant. Because the car's conduct is so poorly predicted, I've decided to quit putting my faith in it. A mere snowball, and you'll wither away like a leafy green. Although the speed index is T (up to 190 miles per hour), if you drive for five to ten minutes at a speed of one hundred fifty and then exit the vehicle, you will unmistakably be able to smell burnt rubber. I would not recommend this to anyone that drives at a high rate of speed.

Pros
  • They have a low noise level; they react satisfactorily in ruts; on wet roads and in temperatures near zero, they have benefits over both summer and studs; the noise level is low.
Cons
  • - brittle sidewalls on a low profile; - C grade aquaplaning; - controllability on dry pavement for a C grade, the sharpness of the steering wheel is severely lost in comparison with summer; - on ice - a deuce, they seem to be holding, but they break down in an unpredictable manner. In the snow, the word "deuce" means "do not maintain the trajectory."

An excellent friction clutch for me - quiet, predictable handling, not very expensive.
