What's the long term on the Nokians?

I didn't know about them until i went into 5 different places asking what was their better set of tired and found a tiny tire shops with this tires nad great prices

6:37 That's the rubber flash from moulding the tire. 6:48 Those moulding vents aka whiskers

Thanks for the review. I had DMV2s on my truck a few years ago and I'm looking at the Nokian's this time around. I too am concerned about running super soft tires on a 5500lb vehicle.

As a dad I agree. NOKIAN tires are great traction. When my wife drives my 2 kids the vehicle must have good tires. Most important part of an automobile. Having the peace of mind is worth the money. Thanks for the review!

I just put those on my range rover, hoping for a drama free winter : )

Nokians R&D is far superior to any other manufacturer for winter performance. Those guys do some crazy stuff in testing

Nokian are great tires, one thing I would recommend is having winter tires on dedicated wheels. If you take tires off the wheel they can be damaged and if there is a mileage warranty they cannot be taken off the original wheels. If one is damaged when you change from summer to winter tires you have to replace the entire set. You could just replace 2 but then you may be unbalanced. I know Michelin has a 40,000 mile warranty on X-Ice Snow but that warranty is voided if you take the tires off the original wheels they were installed on. The world’s best winter tire right now is the Continental VikingContact 7, Nokian, Pirelli and Michelin are very close. Toyo, Hankook and Kumho are in that group as well. Yokohama, Bridgestone, Goodyear, BF Goodrich are not far off. There’s really not a bad choice from any of those. Winter Tires are a great investment. If you have All-Seasons and AWD you are in good shape in most conditions, just not all, so you have to be very careful in extreme conditions, which can happen at any time. Here in Canada we get white-outs where you can’t see anything in front of you, that’s when you want the best vehicle for winter including AWD and Winter tires. You just don’t have enough time to react in a blizzard or driving through black ice..

First and last vieo. IF YOU SAY UM UH AHH UM AHHH UM UM UM AHH UH UM UM UM UM UM UM AHH UH UH UMM UM UM ONE MORE TIME. UM UM UH AHAH UM UM UM

Have 245/35/18 nokian r3's on my wrx, they handle well at higher speed. grip very well on dry, gravel, and snow/ice roads after the break in period. Handle mud amazing. Sidewalls are tough and Hold up well to white rock donuts and the occasional bump on the curb. Not horribly noisy, and they do look really nice.

All snow tires will wear quickly if run in warm weather. Thanks for the review. I'm torn between these or the Blizzack DM-V2 or the Michelin x-ice. These are $50 a tire more. That rubber coming off the side wall is normal and nothing to worry about.

The thread does look bad ass on the Nokian. Just ordered a pair for my Z4 for Chicago winter.

The Nokian Hakkapaliitta series tyres are one of the best winter tyres that you can get. I’ve used them on both my Chrysler 300C 5.7L HEMI and VW Tiguan AWD in Canadian winters. They exceeded my expectations in blizzard conditions, freezing rain and even in dry conditions. I’ve never felt more solidly grounded to the road in winter conditions; and as for tread wear, I’m was able to get 4 Winters with my 300C; and this season will be my 5th Winter with the Tiguan. The difference being that the 300C drives more power to the rear wheels and its a much heavier vehicle than the Tiguan; therefore the tyres wear quicker. Nevertheless, the actual wearing down was much more linear than the previous Michelin and Goodyear tyres I used; and performance never suffered throughout, until the tread had actually reached the limit. As a footnote, I don’t think that it’s fair to compare these to the Michelin Premier LTZ. That’s an all season tyre, whereas the Hakkapaliitta series are all winters.

Please update us on the thread wear

Great Review! I have the first gen hakka R since 2011 on my 4Runner and driven it for 39, 303 km based on my record every time I switch tires (ave. 4,367km/season). I still see 4mm mark but I will change these next year with R3s or if whatever is new from Nokians. Totally happy with winter performance and how it wears.

Hi how’s the winter tires?

Blizzak is so overly rated, I am looking forward to the Nokian Hakkapaliitta. Thank you for the review dear Dad Details.

Such an amazing review. I was thinking of same for my Lexus Rx350. Thank you for making it easy to decide. You should make more videos :D

Just bought 4 for my Honda civic. Been using Hankook Ipike rs winter tires for about 5 years now. Hoping my hakkapeliitta r3s will be a significant improvement as they were almost $180.00 more for a set.

It’s Nokian here in Northern Maine . 10 feet of snow in winter with a duration of 6 full months!

Great video 👌

What can you say about blizzak dm-v3 ?

How are they wearing

Those look like the R3 SUV, not R3.

I have R'3s on my 2019 Genesis G70 6MT RWD. I live around Ottawa, so we gets lots of snow. I put around 20,000Km's on mine last year. They were awesome all winter long, and I was 4 days short of having them on my vehicle for a full 6 months. Ride noise is basically nil, and they offer low rolling resistance, so they are actually better on gas than my summer tires. They do seem to wear down a bit more than the Michelin Xice (which I've had on 2 vehicles before - and they are guaranteed for 60-80K?), but they are amazing winter tires. Top drawer stuff.

I had Nokian Hak R3 last year used around 7/32 thread and they worked great on my RWD BMW 335is. Picked up a new set this year. What I heard from Blizzaks were that as thread is used they don't stay good but on the Nokians they have "cryo crystals" or whatever that is in the wole thread, not just the start of it, so it stays good mostly until you hit the replace mark.

Hakkapeliitta 9 would be even better for that SUV.

Nice review... thanks! I have a 2015 Acura MDX AWD and am thinking about getting a set of these R3s for the coming winter. I have factory 19in wheels and tires on the vehicle now. I'm going to downsize to a 17in wheel and tire for my MDX. That will have two benefits... It will cost less for the wheels and tires. Plus, the 17in tires should be somewhat more narrow than the factory 19in. and thus should cut through the snow better.

Going to try the R3 this winter with the new Rav 4 AWD, hope I will be satisfied, thank's for the excellent review Sylvain, Québec

Hey Dad details, how is your experience now? How did the thread, would you still recommend these over Bridgestone DMV2 or Yokohamas ?

I spent a lot on these tires. I ran them last winter and I was not impressed. In fact, I don't plan on running them again. It's unfortunate because the tire guy said they were a top pick , but I used to have Michelin X-Ice 2's and I always felt confident driving in winter with those. With the Nokian's I feared getting stuck on snow covered dirt roads and did once. It took about 10 minutes to get out. Pissed I spent about a grand on these damn tires.

It is awesome to see a Denver RUclipsr! Thanks for the great video. I’m getting these for my truck.

I tried your y-splitter idea - only problem I've seen (just installed it) is that when taking the quick disconnect from the outlet of the CR to then connect it to the tap that uses non DI water - there is a TON of water that comes out of the DI outlet. What do you do to keep all that water run off contained?

Had first hand experience with the Blizzaks and Hakkapaliitta's over in Aomori, Japan (one of the if not thee most snowiest place on Earth) on a Honda CR-V. The Nokians handled like a snowmobile, I was able to take curves and bends at speed. Stopping was great and the wear & gas mileage weren't too bad either. The Nokians were far superior over the Blizzaks, held up very well in ice and rain also.

Hi, how would you compare this with the Blizzak performance wise on ice and snow?

I’m very interested in knowing if they can handle rain and how it does in rain. Does it hold its grip on corners in rain or dry roads. We’ve had more than a foot of snow in the Seattle area and much rain. Expecting more snow soon. I have an appointment with discount tire in 4 days and to put these on....or decide to get something else.

Just put them on, absolutely phenomenal, defies the laws of physics I swear! Everyone with all seasons on the west coast is scary tho.

Updates?

That was a pretty good test. I haven’t looked into the CR Spotless systems a ton, but it was cool seeing a real world test of pulling it back into the garage and not drying it at all. That’s one of the pains when I’m detailing is trying to get everything perfectly dry before continuing on to the next phase. With something like that I could theoretically rinse and dry it off with a blower, then let it air dry over night before I start polishing the next day.

Very cool setup!! Can’t wait to see it being used!!

David, thanks for sharing. In our brief conversations last year, I kind of sensed you were a man in flux. Here's to a bigger and better 2019! As far as editing software, what did you end up going with? I personally transitioned to FCPX because of the easy transition from iMovie.

2019 is a new year filled with new everything. Congrats on starting your channel, sharing your story and bringing us along with you!

Just suscribed! Excited. Make a video of your Sunjoe Setup! I need to make some mods to that pressure washer.. hose.. gun.. etc.

this is great...I was actually going to call you to find out what your recommendations would be regarding clay bar products and then if you preferred waxing your car or doing a ceramic coating.

Excited to see what you think of the Hakkapeliitta R3s. I had a set on order for my car but just found out that they were on a 90 day backorder so I ended up with X-Ice Xi3s.
