Tyre reviews Nordman 8. Page 8 130

The road is held perfectly. All the studs are in place. I recommend.

Normal

Tires are acceptable

Justifies itself 100%.
Traction, braking.

The tread pattern of the former Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8, was very much liked

My wife is satisfied. They handle well in the snow and hold the road confidently

Tread deserves

In short and clear, if you live in a village and you don't have asphalt, and you drive aggressively on snow, then definitely don't take these tires, as within a year 8 studs were broken, longitudinal abrasions appeared on the tires, in short, the rubber quickly becomes unusable, yes, they grip well, but they are also noisy, on ice they hold well, but these tires are for careful use, and the studs don't fly out of the tire, they just break off. I drove for 3 years on Hankook Ice Bear RS2 without removing them even in the summer and they still remain with me for the summer, since I need traction and there not a single stud was broken.

Very, very, very noisy, grip on the road 4+, maybe while new, they handle confidently, but the noise overrides all possible advantages.

I bought them believing the reviews, but in reality, they are very noisy, after 500 km the hum slightly decreased. Well, the noise is okay, it doesn't affect safety.
What struck me more is that the new model, manufactured using all the advantages of flagship models (according to the brochure), is simply AWFUL in reality!
Considering the current prices, I paid attention to these tires because, according to reviews and descriptions, the new model has a normal price and excellent quality!
But! For example, when driving in a yard with packed snow and ice, at a speed slightly faster than a pedestrian, I braked sharply, the ABS kicked in, and the car just slid another 1.5-2 meters! How is this possible?!
Furthermore, it's scary to leave the lane, it will skid without even thinking about it.
The tires are simply 0!
Yes, they grip on snow, but any winter tire grips! In the city, it's still calm,
But it's scary to drive on the highway in a snowstorm with these tires.
I don't know, maybe they will get better over time, but for now, with a mileage of 1000 km, the tires have not justified themselves.
