Nokian WR C Van are definitely fine tyres.I've been using them in my VW Transporter T4 2002 in the size 195/70R15C. There is no surface you wouldn't drive into on these tyres - snow, slush, rain are no match for these tyres. I definitely recommend these as decent winter tyres.

Nokian WR C Van are mounted to Fiat Ducato, I am doing long-distance in various ways. In the moment there are only 2 brands of winter tyres that count to me: Nokian and Michelin. Only those excel very good in difficult conditions and I had many tyres of different manufacturers. Soft, low abrasion, doing 60000 miles at ease, braking is a bit worse, but all winter tyres are worse than summer in braking on dry or wet roads. However, Nokian WR C Van are very winter tyres and I do not have any objections to them. The only thing I can say is I would recommend them.

Nokian WR C Van is a decent winter tyre. EXCELLENT on snow - will dig out of any snow. Slush - OK. Braking in all conditions (except ice) Superb. While driving, the downside is the behavior on the curves, the effect of swimming, the information for those who like speed up a bit.

Nokian WR C Van is simply a great tyre. It will dig your van out of every snow bank. Starting on ice, snow, and slush is not a problem. Like most winter tyres, it wears off pretty quickly and is quite loud. Also, the price is high, but it's worth to spend every penny on this tyre.

Nokian WR C Van were Fitted on 20.10.2012. Over the winter, I drove 66000 miles. Although I kept them by force for them to last to the end of long tough winter season. While these tyres were up to 5 mm tread they sticked like crazy. Less is worse. Less than 4 mm and the tyres were not able to dig out of fresh 25 inches of snow. I ride only in north-eastern Scotland. Michelin For this winter, because apparently they are even more durable. If this does not work - back to Nokians.
