Nordman SZ2

I purchased tires in the size 235/55R18. I immediately want to note their noisiness. Simply noisy is not enough to describe these tires, they are AWFULLY NOISY. When driving on perfectly flat asphalt, it's tolerable, but when driving on a slightly worn-out part of the road (collier), noise starts, accompanied by a slight vibration in the steering wheel and pedals (I immediately went for a suspension diagnosis, as I thought that some bearing was malfunctioning). I assume this is because the tires are also quite hard, as the deep groove and raised markings are very felt by the steering wheel and the entire car body. Otherwise, I have no comments on the handling of these tires: in the rain - good, in the heat - good.

In general, the tire is not bad, but it has one big minus, since the car is used as a taxi, with large mileage. That is, I drove 33,000 km on it for the season and I still continue to drive, the season is not over yet, but already the 7, 6, and 5 have worn out and a little more than half of it has worn out (this is on the front wheels), on the rear wheels, the 7 and 6 have worn out and the 5 has also worn out halfway. I realized for myself that Nokian makes good winter tires, but they have not yet learned to make summer tires. For this money, you can take the same Korean tire, which will be many times better. I will not buy this tire again.

Very noisy, very. After Bridgestone and Michelin, there is a noticeable difference in noise. But it holds the road well, handling is good. The tire is normal, if not for the noise.
