Review on Nokian Tires Nordman RS2 SUV 225/65 R17 106R winter by Adam Kotula ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

For my first-generation Hyundai Tusan with front-wheel drive, I sprung for these tires. I've skated for two seasons now, and the rubber seems to work well in all conditions, from rain to packed snow to entering curbs to rowing smoothly in ruts. This winter, I had the opportunity to conquer a long and fairly steep ascent; there was ice below and a layer of snow 10-15 cm above; the tires were pulled out; the wheels slipped a little; but it climbed; after the first season, the letter S was erased; after the second season, the numbers 4 and 6 were no longer discernible; my yearly mileage for the season was 10,000 kilometers. Rubber tires can handle rough terrain, including potholes and big pebbles. There is no excessive noise, everything seems to be in the standard range. Purchasing is something I suggest doing.

Pros
  • Good performance on dry asphalt, slush, and light snow; ice is worse, but still manageable, thanks to the sturdy sidewall that efficiently evacuates water from the contact patch.
Cons
  • Didn't turn up.
