Nokian WR tire?

[Fred Munro]

Andrew;

I have a set of Nokian WRs on my wife's Camry. Got about 4 years on them -
Nokian now calls them the WR All Weather Plus. They have been good all
purpose tires - quiet, good in the dry, rain, and snow. They are wearing
well; lots of tread on them yet. They are rated as a snow tire for severe
winter service, but they are not as good in the snow as the RSi. They are a
good all season tire that are better in the snow than most all season tires.
For the use the Camry gets (around town, few winter highway trips) they are
a good match.

HTH

Has anyone here tried the Nokian WR series tire? I need a semi-emergency
replacement for my (worthless) Bridgestone Turanzas. I'd like to get the
Conti ProContact SSR, but they are back-ordered everywhere in the known
universe. The Nokian was a suggested replacement.

BTW, the tires are run-flat, which severely limits my choices. I also
want all season, rather than the usual semiannual changeover.....
