The very next day after the founding of Nokian WR A3 I was able to find out about the qualities of the product. I think about the previous weekend, which paralyzed traffic on the roads due to snow and drivers who had not switched in time for winter tyres. When they drove onto a speed of 20-25 miles / h, me not charging on the icy snow drove the inner belt at 45-50 miles / h Sure, this ain't no mean feat, but I felt confident and safe in these tyres, the car was going where I wanted, and not just where it wanted to .... In addition, there were no problems in entering a fairly steep driveway, which was partly icy and not cleared of snow. Recommended.

Purchased these tyres as I normally used winter tyres all year round for their handling especially during the heavy down pours that occur all year round. I drive alot on motorways and autobans, these tyres have never let me down. When I drove on the Bussels ring road on summer tyres during a down pour the vehicle aquaplaned, however since using winter tyres aquaplaning is a thing of the past. Essentially if you need a tyre built for realibility and to get you there regardless of weather I recommend the WR A3.

I am a taxi driver so choosing tires primarily guided by the fact that the car was safe on the road and not contrary to the general opinions were the cheapest;-). Oponeo advisor told me to Nokia. I did not know the brand, but I trusted and ... I'm happy. The tires are quiet, though the ride is mostly around the city, it is my opinion not fully objective. Auto very good roadholding. This year, it is true there was too much snow, but even so I could test them on what has been dropped.

Competition can only hide. Have not ridden a better winter tyres than Nokian WR A3. I feel sorry for goodyear riders, I had one and I won't be tempted again. For the same price I got the Nokian WR A3. Even a bit cheaper, and you feel like riding on the tires at least one class higher. No wonder why. Few people know that the company Nokian was the first one to produce winter tyres ever, and that the ice speed record was beaten on the Nokian tyre (330km/ h). Congratulations on your purchase and I hope you will share my opinion on Nokian WR A3.

Excellent in snow and ice especially with a rear wheel drive car, I have winter mode which makes the car virtually 4 wheel drive. In the UK the temperature is often 7C or below and wet so these tyres are very good for all year round use. I use Motorways most of the time and the tyre wear to mileage so far is very good. These are one of the best tyres I have ever used and reasonably priced for the top performance they give.

Had these as a winter set for the Mondeo hatch and used them on Mk4 and 4a versions. Suited car very well giving better handling, much quieter travel, and all the grip I needed both solo and towing a caravan. Didn't check rolling resistance/mpg variations. Unfortunately, have changed car make which has different size tyres so will be definitely be looking for a new set.

I put these tyres on for winter 2014-2015. The ride and steering was immediately better then my Pirellis I took off. They were fantastic in snow.ice slush and through a muddy field. At the end of winter when the temp went up I was planning on putting the P4 back on.....it's now September I left them on. They were superb all year. P4 are going on Ebay.

Finns know what it is winter and difficult driving conditions. This was guided by the wyborze.Utwierdziłem in the decisions of the exchange of summer tires for winter listening to the opinion of the well-known station, where I am a customer for decades. Great comfort on asphalt, slight thud on a large paved with granite surfaces.

The Nokian WRA3's were great on my Evo X and are even better on my Mk7 Golf R. In snow they are sure footed and responsive. In the wet they perform excellently creating fantastic confidence. In the dry its difficult to distinguish between the Nokians and my Bridgestone summer tyres. Overall fantastic, highly recommended.

I bought these tyres based on a 5* review by Autocar for a trip to Austria skiing for two weeks. The tyres performed faultlessly in temperatures down to -18°C in snow and slush and at 150 mph on the Autobahn. I would happily recommend these tyres to others.
