Tyre reviews Nokian WR G2. Page 9 2341

almost a dream - soft and comfortable

It's done! After 42 thousand and two winters on the standard "Bridgestone" RE050 215/45 R17 and a long model selection, I finally matured to re-shoe into weather-dependent shoes, choosing 215/55 R 17. Thanks to this site, I calculated the difference in readings and was pleased to note a 2-centimeter increase in clearance and, accordingly, speed characteristics (100 on the speed

LeftRight

Can you please advise if there is a distinction between left and right tires? How can you tell the difference? And is there a reliable source of information? I had a dispute with a friend who claims that such a distinction does not exist! Thank you for your answer!

TIRE - TREAD

There is no distinction between the left and right tires. The fact is that manufacturers first of all consider the balance, and only then the technology - so it's very expensive to produce right and left tires due to the need for a large number of spare tires on the export market (just in case of war :)). And in general, an example - in the mid-90s, friends helped me get a great Michelin Energy tire. I cut the sidewall

Just posted

I have a remark to the moderators. What, Nokian WR G2 tires in size 205/60 R15 do not exist? Then how to explain that such a tire is sold and I installed this size today on my "BMW 325 tds" (E36) Sedan.

excellent

no left or right. It's just written OUTSIDE!!!!! + the tire fitters know how to install the tires. And stop asking how to distinguish left and right. I've been driving for a month - excellent tires. There's been no snow yet. I'll post an update when it snows. and also - if you want to drive on ice, buy studded tires, but then it will be noisy on bare asphalt. It feels like everyone lives in permaf

don't like

I live in the Carpathians, as soon as the snow fell, I changed to Nokian VRG2, they were recommended, on ice they're no good, on snow uphill from a standstill zero, I used to have Kleber, Marangoni is much better. Downhill on ice like a slope, but Marangoni pulled through.

Probably just a tire for its price

On dry pavement, it goes like a summer tire, you don't even notice you're driving on winter tires... The handling is better compared to the original Dunlop... But on wet pavement... On water, if the road is well flooded, as has been said here, it gets stuck and slows down... It doesn't lead, it holds well... But it gets stuck in water, the speed drops off very noticeably... I haven't had snow

But what made you think it's winter tires?

There, on the sidewall, it's written "All Season" in black and there's a leaf pattern, not a snowflake. Who drives on all-season tires on ice? There are studded tires for that. But on city roads, studded tires cause more discomfort than advantages - they're noisy, the braking distance is longer... And for the city, these tires are quite good. I have a Passat TDI

Softness, quietness - I like

I live in the city, I go to the country house every weekend. The road and the highway are held perfectly, the first snow was met "in full armor" re-shod))). The tread is great. The tires are excellent, you need to get used to them and find the best in them, don't compare, or nothing will be liked, or it will be expensive, so you will drive on anything. I'm satisfied,

excellent tires!
excellent tires. mainly operated in Kiev and the suburbs. never let me down. behaves great on the highway. not noisy. snow, ice, mud - handles like a charm. very pleased. handles bumps with ease! one drawback - it was hard to find the right size. next time I'll definitely choose these tires again. good luck on the roads to everyone!
Pros: quiet, comfortable, soft)))
Cons: none
