England's wettist winter for years and these tyres deserve 5 stars for the way in which they brake grip the road and litteraly give great confidence of being glued to the road. Npo experoence of snow so put middle 3 stars but supsect that they will rate very high Great depth of tread and even though made in Russia - Oponeo and its support in getting them for Xmas was brilliant If there are winter tyres that are better in the wet than these I'd be very surprised - Great Value for amazing rubber that truly grips the road and brake and dispell massive amounts of standing water, even at high speeds Worth every penny Brillaint

In my opinion Nokian WR A3 is particularly good both in dry conditions and acts superbly in the snow. It is also very quiet. The tread of the tyre has few drawbacks on wet surfaces. Very good steering but only fair driving comfort - 215/55R16 97H XL

Delivered within 3 days from the date of purchase. Best possible tyre for money on the market. I have done tyres selling before and can assure you all out there that there is no better tyre on the market for weather conditions in Western Europe. You can always go for something more pricey but you will waste money. Tyre is quiet and predictable. Got to admit that comfort in compare to summer Efficientgrip has improved. Can't wait for snow fall:)

After two seasons tire starts to slip especially in the wet, it can unfortunately after that unpleasant surprise. After three seasons, which currently is a tragedy, despite deep tread (tire I could easily this season and still neastępny serve). At a temperature of 3-8 degrees C tire in the wet now virtually no grip which should not happen after 3 zesonach, which is why I mention, and certainly not on the same. I would add that I write about the wet pavement without puddles, that there is no excess water. Also in the snow is no longer good but it is not a tragedy. I check again after two seasons Nokian WR A3 is a tragedy. What to judge the quality of the tire is good, because no bulges, good broth and is quiet (even comparing Michelin years). An additional drawback is hard and feel much more inequality but probably because it's the one with reinforced.

Badly chosen tire in the car (factory set - I had no choice). Superb used in 50% of motorways require tires with a higher speed rating than 210. The tire in this index tends to deform dramatic and "losing" balance for such a heavy car. This Learn from other users for comfort, handling, steerability is true. Tires are generally OK but for me 2-3 thousand kilometers and vulcanization. Car falls into a tremor becomes niekierowalne like. Changes to the index GY about 240 km and the highest possible capacity.

When it is wet it lacks adhesion to dynamically accelerate even. As for the twisting it is not bad.

Immediately after assuming the tires I thought it fall out of turn, because the tires so must slip. After 200 km are passed over. Unfortunately for 2 months driving on these tires from Nov. 1, returned 2 mm tread on the drive axle and 1mm tread on the idler - I drove at that time 4000 km. Tested once on the snow - work well, I can recommend. However, if we have the winter as it is now in Poland, it will be a better choice Continentale and Michelins - do not wear off as the asphalt like these.

I have already clocked 3 winter seasons on these tires now use them fourth. I must say that despite the chunky looks like a winner 30000km about 5mm, unfortunately driveability beyond the well odśnieżonymi roads rather meager for a premium tires. Moving uphill on snow-covered road - the car slides ASR go haywire and basically without the aid of a fellow the problem is with you emerge even in reverse. The easy way deep snow (ie the ankle) - the problem of driving away, ASR non-stop braking of the wheels, without ASR wheel non-stop tow even at low gas are brushed. Braking - fresh snow - no revelations ABS ever let go of the wheel. To sum up, under strictly minus average winter tire. Wet, dry highway - even speed of 200km / h are no problem, the tire grips the road well, predictable. Hydroplaning - big pools and the speed of about 100km / h - the car flees sensitive side to side, can not cope with the discharge of large amounts of water. Tread very resistant to abrasion after 4 seasons - 4-5mm, which means he's tough and hard fins cooperate with the ground, which shall be made in poor traction on snow. Riding round bends without any problems, sides and tread quite stiff, no effect of the flames. Generally speaking, the tire is good for the months of spring and autumn, winter rather only road cleared of snow. I hope I have helped in choosing winter tires for next season attached above opinion on Nokianów WR A3
