Nokian NRW - opinions?

[Bryan Rodgers]

I've been using a set of NRWs for almost a year now... ...I even left them
on for the summer(!)

They're pretty good, but IMO if you're looking for 'ultimate' winter/ice
traction, go for the Hakka 1.

I'm running 185/60/14. Cost me $98, or so each.

(I left them on all summer because they were better than the Goodyears I
took off, and I didn't feel uncomfortalbe doing so. If my 4000s was a 4000q,
it'd prolly have 17s...)

I would recommend going with the Hak 1 if you want better snow function. The
NRW are great in rain and slush and very quiet on dry roads.  I only feel
that they are really usefull if you are in an urban area where they use salt
on the roads a lot; or if you want to keep as much dry weather handling as
possible.
