    Great to see more manufactures are making these "Make Sense" All-Weather tires for most consumers that lives with all four seasons without the need & cost of buying 2nd set of tires, storage space & swapping out tires twice a year. Look forward for some real world tests on the RUclips in the near future.

      Nokian has been making All-weather tires for around 20 years now, well before the All-weather trend became popular.

    My WRG4s are great all year round in Canada. No need for dedicated in winter, summer only tires are for sports cars only. I'm getting these on my second car this spring.

    Got a brand new hybrid SUV 2 wks ago and was debating this remedy wrg5 or the Outpost APT…both all weathers but with the added all terrain ability of the Outpost APT plus the semi rugged design of the tires and deeper treads (13/32 vs 10/32) I got the Outpost fitted instead. So far happy with them!

    You don't mention the 3 peak mountain snowflake does not make an all weather tire, an all weather tire has adaptive rubber compound which makes it softer in cold weather compared to an all season tire, that said the Nokian WRG4 and WRG5 is an all weather tire. Other tires in the category are the Michelin crossclimate 2, Goodyear weatheready, also Toyo, Bridgestone and Firestone have an all weather tire

    I've had WRG-2, WRG-3 & WRG-4. The WRG-4 is getting noisier and noisier--to the point I think it sounds like I have a wheel bearing problem, even changed one wheel bearing, that was not it--it was the tire. I liked WRG-2 best.

    These are great tires for those people who get the occasional snowstorm in the winter months. But if your lawn is covered by snow for more than 1 month in the winter, then it's probably best to get a set of dedicated winter tires on separate steel rims instead.

      The wrg4 nokians outperformed many winter tires in a test I saw. I've had them on my cars in Minnesota and they were fantastic in the snow.

    I would say they wont peeform as well as ghe best in class summer tire or winter tire butbin my opinion they do better than most tires in bith catgories. I had the WRG4 SUVs on my tuned Audi SQ5. Superb tires.

    I hate the 3Peak Mountain Snowflake. It’s rather misleading. It’s just an acceleration test on moderately packed snow. That’s it. Doesn’t include a benchmark for braking, doesn’t include a benchmark for compact snow/ice, doesn’t include a benchmark for handling. Just a simple acceleration test. In my opinion it needs to be updated so a more rigorous standard.

    I just replaced my WR G4's for dry rot cracking of sidewall and tread not with the WR G5 but with the Michelin Cross Climate 2's. Nokian dealer told me I was SOL, 6 year mfg date, 5 year use, 30K miles. Can't risk buying Nokian again. Plus dealer said would give me 20% off but jacked up the price per tire to over $250 each, more expensive than tire being sold elsewhere and more expensive than even the Michelin CC2.

      It was Nokian that invented the winter and more recent all weather tire segments. The WRG4 has many hundreds of positive customer reviews and numerous field evaluations.

      Disagree. The WRG4 are amazing in the winter on my FWD Accord manual. My friend with Blizzak winter tires on his BRZ couldn't make it up the same hill.

      Yes they are expensive. you get what you pay for. Nokian specializes in winter tires and currently the WR10 studded is by far the best studded tire on the market I guess if you've owned every type of Nokian you must have owned over a hundred by now. they have been in North America since the 70's
