Nokian Tyres WR SUV 3 295/40 R20 110 V XL

I have Mitsubishi Pajero Sport 2, 4x4 with manual locks. Driving in the city on a dry is a pleasure. On the wet it's exactly this same. The car holds on to the road very well. And now the best part: I was driving up the hill in 20-25ºC in deep sand – I was driving on these tyres and only I was able to get to the top with a friend of mine on the quad (of course quad was on other tyres). Lads in Uaz, Mercedes G (old model) and Ford Ranger didn't make it. While driving on the motorway 105mph the car also holds on to the road. I would definitely recommend this tyre to all. Previously I had a Bridgestone Dualer as the first equipment. The first rainfall after buying a car and in five minutes traction control on the asphalt saved me twice. The manufacturer has used the width of the tire to the maximum so the tread is literally from the edge to the edge of the balloon. When we look at the car from the behind it looks like I would wear a tyre two sizes wider. Read more Collapse

Unfortunately I had a bad luck on these tyres. First balancing problems after installation caused by the fitting station or perhaps a bit worse quality of tyres produced in Russia that maybe not necessarily holds on to the standards? I don't know, but I survived hell when one tyre on the highway in the Czech Republic after hovering on a piece of alloy rims, which fell apart in another car just before I got to this place – the car was still on the emergency lights on the side. I was admiring how something like that, approx 10”, can knock your tyre of the rear wheel! It had to conquer exactly perpendicular. However in Austrian mountains these tyres did well on the road even though there was no snow except higher altitudes episodes that made access to the lifts. In Central Europe on the usual snow covered roads (because the road service fell asleep) I can't complain on them at all. Good braking and traction. Read more Collapse

Very fast delivery of tyres, according to the offer. Despite various opinions, about them, I am very happy with my Nokian WR SUV 3 tyres. They are premium tyres of a very good quality for a very reasonable price and surprised me positively. Although they were manufactured in Russia, I can't complain about their manufacturing quality. I bought them in autumn 2013, and their production date was summer 2013, so my tyres were actually new. Due to their size (17 inch, fitted to alloy wheels) there were small problems with their balancing, but I went to the professional service then and they didn't have any problems with it. Two of them had just to be rotated on the wheels a bit and then re-fitted. They don't swerve at all and are practically inaudible while driving, which is rare in case of winter tyres such as Nokian WR SUV 3. I definitely recommend. Read more Collapse

I've just taken these off to revert to summer option having covered just over 8,000 miles. Rear treads still just showing max 8mm and fronts down to 7mm which is excellent for wear on a heavy SUV. I like the built in numerical tread wear indicators which is very useful. Very positive fast steering response and quiet too. Whilst we hardly had any snow, grip when cold and on ice and in mud when off road is reassuring. One very fast emergency stop in wet conditions and again performed admirably. I needed new summer tyres and on the basis of my above comments I have purchased Nokian again and will review them in due course. Read more Collapse

I've been using winter tyres for several years now and in my opinion, Nokian WR SUV 3 is a very good tyre at a very decent price. It may not be a very popular brand, but the parameters are perfect for our weather conditions. It has very good driving properties and low rolling resistance, it's also very quiet. It also does the job off-road despite the fact I didn't do much off-road driving. I can't see a reason to complain about them, so I can honestly say - Nokian WR SUV 3 is a tyre I can recommend to all SUV drivers. Read more Collapse
