Tyre reviews Nordman 7. Страница 4 609

Hakkapeliitta/Nokian after sidewall reinforcement (XL) have become the best on the market, in my opinion. I've always chosen and will continue to choose only them

I liked the tires. On a snowy road, I feel confident. It enters turns well even at high speed, it just holds the road.

The tire meets its specifications. It was purchased on the advice. In general, it performs its functions as a studded tire. On snow and ice, it works excellent.

The tires are VERY noisy. On dry asphalt, even minor vibrations are felt. After the summer GoodYear, the noise is very noticeable.

BUT: On ice, it brakes with a score of 5+, on snow it crawls with a score of 5+, and in the mud of the off-season, it didn't fail either. As for wear, I won't say yet, but the previous Nokians didn't die after long seasons. I'll get used to the noise. But after the Michelin non-studded tires, it's not scary to brake :)

Excellent tires, for our weather conditions it's just right. I believe this is the optimal balance between price and quality.

In December 2021, I purchased this tire. Two seasons passed without any issues. Starting from October 2023, the studs began to puncture the tire from the inside, with two punctures in a month, which is already too much. What kind of production is this?

I bought them for the winter of 2023, instead of the worn-out Hakkapeliitta 5. They wrote that the Nokian Hakkapeliitta has a tread like the Hakkapeliitta 7, which means it's a must-have! During operation, I can compare it to my 15-year-old Hakkapeliitta 5: the traction with the road is worse with the Nokian, it starts to skid when cornering sharply, which was not the case with the worn-out Hakkapeliitta 5. In general, the car has stopped handling (and mine handles great, especially on different tires and in the summer), and now in the winter, I'm like on a ship. I also drove to Minsk in the spring, the average speed was 15+, on the way back - 2 studs came out, which I consider an excellent result)

The verdict: if you want to keep the handling, you need to either get the non-studded tire (compared to the Hakkapeliitta 5, there wasn't a single stud), or if it's not about the non-studded tire, then get a higher-class tire. This can really let you down... I almost lost control while braking in the Lefortovo tunnel - I did brake, though.

For the first time I bought winter tires of this brand. I drive out of a snowdrift without wheelspin. This pleased me. If there's slush on the road, when braking sharply, they scrape the ice and it's audible, the car doesn't skid. Well, of course, not at a speed of 150. On bare ice, uphill or downhill, you need to be more careful. A small unevenness and the wheels themselves slide to the side. In general, I'm very satisfied. I didn't expect it, to be honest. The price-quality ratio is perfect. As for noise, I have no complaints. I definitely recommend buying them.

I installed two new ones in the front, they hold the road well, grip well, both on ice and in slush (snow+ice), it's like driving on rails)) compared to the old Nordman-4 from 11 years ago, it's heaven and earth, but there's no point in comparing them. Although I "studded" two old ones and put them in the back, because the tires have retained their softness over 11 years and worn out insignificantly. They are a bit noisy, especially during thaw on asphalt, but that's understandable)) overall I'm satisfied, safety above all.

Decent tire overall, for city driving. At low speeds, it's not noisy, and it handles fairly well. Anything above 100 km/h is not its forte. There's noise and wandering on the road. It's too early to talk about durability, as the mileage on it is not significant yet.
