Tyre reviews Nokian Hakkapeliitta C3. Page 1 62

I've been using it since the start of winter and haven't had any complaints. The tire is mostly used on highways (80%), but it has also shown its capabilities in the city, gripping the snow as it should, and starting on slippery crosswalks and intersections even when empty. I recommend this tire.

No minus points.
From the pluses:
1. Quiet
2. All studs in place (one season)
3. Best traction on the rear axle without locking.

Slip, on the rear axle 0 after a season, on the front 25% remaining. Two almost identical cars on one C3 on the other C VAN rear 2 seasons 50% remaining studs, front 5 seasons studs almost 0, on the snow on a new C3 won't budge, on the C VAN no problem, and this is when I'm switching cars back and forth (arriving at one location and departing from another) 24/

Excellent winter tire. Had Kumho KS11 Chinese tire before. Half of the tread was gone after first winter. Nexen was the same after a month. Here, after second winter, 2-3 studs are gone, and that's after emergency braking. Tread is like new.

I've bought these tires for my microbus for several seasons now and I'm completely satisfied. I have three microbuses in operation, all of which are equipped with Nokian S3 tires. I've tried cheaper models in the past, but I was disappointed with their performance. It's worth spending a bit extra to know you can rely on them on slippery roads.

I've done two winters on Hakkapeliitta C3 studded tires, around 60,000 km. On a rear-wheel drive vehicle, rear tires wear out quickly and need to be swapped often. After that, I tried Gislaved Nordfrost Van, which was a disaster - after the first winter and 30,000 km, I threw them away without studs and tread. The price was a bit off-putting, but after trying other tires, I began to understand

We bought tyres for our Citroen Jumper bus 225/75 R16C, and we were expecting better quality for the price. It stops superbly on ice and the car comes to a complete stop, but on snow it's a different story and it struggles to get going. Compared to Nokian Hakkapeliitta S Cargo, it loses out. On asphalt, it's quiet and smooth. At the tyre shop, they added a minimal number of weights for installation. We

Excellent tyres

I'm not buying Nokian Hakkapeliitta for the first time. For rear-wheel drive, there's no better tire. I've tried many different manufacturers, but I've stopped at Nokian. Expensive, yes. But the car can drive where with other tires it would already be digging or putting on chains. I recommend.

The tire is quite decent. Two seasons passed without any complaints. Provided that the winters were not quite winter-like. There was not much snow and ice. The impressions are positive, except for the fact that a stone got stuck between the lamellas and a cut occurred. The mushroom held on for two months and the tire was thrown away. After two seasons, the wear is around 60%. I bought it for 8000. Now, it seems expensive to me.
