The new studded tire Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 SUV XL is designed specifically for large SUVs and provides unprecedented traction on

I've driven 500 km on this tire.

First trip.

The day before the trip it rained, then froze overnight, with a thin layer of snow on top that was starting to thaw. It was slippery, and there was no way to get any more traction. The tire performed perfectly. There were no wheelspin issues, even when I deliberately disengaged the rear wheels to check. Braking was also fine, with the ABS kicking in as expected,

I pay extra attention to winter tires, i.e. 7 months a year on studs. The previous Hakkapeliitta 8 SUV XL was the 5th Hakkapeliitta, the previous Hakkapeliitta 5 was the Goodyear UltraGrip 500, all tires are very good, 8 is slightly noisier than the 5th, but less noisy than the Goodyear UltraGrip 500, but the 8 Hakkapeliitta has

The Winter season 19/20 in the Arctic region was exceptionally severe. The need to swap to winter tires started in September, resulting in almost 9 months of use on winter tires. My choice was the Nokian Hakkapelita 8. It was subjected to all kinds of conditions: slush, black ice, freezing rain, potholes, plus and minus, uncleaned yards and icy ridges. Murmansk residents will understand. If we assess the tire from the

Using the Pirelli aftergrip I made the following conclusions:

* The car behaves more predictably, even when initiated sliding entry into a turn after a heavy snowfall holds its trajectory very well and without surprises.
* At speeds above 110-120km/h it is quite loud, but not critically so, considering the price/quality and the primary function of safety.
* So far, only studded tyres (apart from the previous test) without any issues with driving on bare ice

Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 SUV 285/60 R18 116T XL excellent tire!

I've driven on this tire for two full seasons (45,000 km over two winters) and I must say I haven't had such good grip on snow and ice before. The last car was very heavy and I thought it would stop for nothing in winter, but the tire really helps and does a very good job. I highly recommend it to all owners of heavy vehicles

I've put this tire on several occasions and I'm absolutely thrilled with it! The best winter tire I've ever had!!

However, this time I'm not satisfied with the store at all!! The manager completely forgot about my order until I contacted them myself!! On the website, the delivery price is listed as one amount, but in reality it's 1.5 times higher! Last time they forgot to send the extended warranty with the tires, so I specifically mentioned that they need

We bought this brand of tires for the first time. The choice was made based on the feedback of the Mosavtochina website and we were not disappointed. The tires are soft and take the road well. One "but" - they are too noisy, despite the soundproofing of the car.

On ice, which is highly polished and "fresh" with snow - above all praise, on an asphalt covered with a thin layer of frost - a four with a minus. Pretty loud because of the large number of studs, if the tires are run-in 1-2tkm, studs are sitting in the tire for the third season in full composition.

Luxurious tires, purchased as a set with Replay KI187 7x17 5x114.3 ET47 Dia 67.1 BKF (7313) wheels.
After selling the car, the tires with wheels were also sold separately.
