Review on Nokian Tires Nordman RS2 SUV 235/65 R17 108R winter by Mateusz Wodarczyk ᠌

I own a Grand Vitara 5d with permanent four-wheel drive and a complete complement of electronic aids, including ESP, TCS, EBD, BOS, BA, and antibuks. The fact that you can drive quite quickly in any weather may be solely because of this rubber. The prospects on ice, however, are just depressing: I had Bridgestone x-ice north2 tires on my previous vehicle (a Peugeot 206 sedan), and I had no issues parking on the ice or rowing in the snow. I nearly hit one eccentric when he abruptly changed lanes without a turn signal; I had to jump onto the curb at a speed of 40 because the ABS simply did not allow me to slow down sufficiently quickly. You need to brake at speed on this rubber very early and wisely (it took a long time to learn on a new car). By the next winter, I shall exclusively use tires with spikes. It's unfortunate that Nokian LT is no longer manufactured (as far as I know).
