Nokian Tyres WR D4 - User reviews

I had the Nokian WR D4 tyres fitted over 2 months ago. I drove a little more than 750 miles on them with a 150 bhp car weighing 1.5 tons. Usually in the city. First thing that got my attention was the smell of rubber compound. That's very unusual. From what I've read Nokian added canola oil to the mixture, maybe this caused such an unusual effect. These tyres really smell like no other. I don't pay much attention to the appearance of the tread, for me it's completely irrelevant. For me, the tyre needs to be effective when it comes to draining water, mud and snow as well as breaking distance. On second place I put the noise level and the third thing is rolling resistance. But I must admit that this tread is unique in appearance and looks quite nice. As for traction; On the dry the tyre firmly grips the road and is very quiet, not squealing on curves. At high speeds on the highway tyre noise did not bother me at all, it is minimal and for that Nokian is to be commended. I had the opportunity to ride in the city during really heavy rains which turned roads into rivers and so I am delighted how well this tire can cope with the water. At 45mph in such conditions, I only heard sough of traversed water, and the car felt like it was stick with a glue. Rut with water? For those tyres it does not matter. Braking? At the 45 mph, in these rainy conditions, the car felt like if it was driving on the dry road. As for the winter conditions of snow it was maybe a couple of days and the tyres were good. On the slush also all great. But it is not enough to somehow verify their effectiveness and to issue reliable opinions. As for the rolling resistance is not noted a higher combustion When you change summer tires (Pirelli) with these winter tires, but I refrain from evaluation because of a small run on these Nokian WR D4. I won't judge their durability neither because of distance. In my opinion premium tires all have similar parameters. If you have a slow 300-400 pounds and wish to buy winter tires then I honestly recommend them. If not, try Barum , but in my opinion it is worth investing in Nokians, in the end is the only part of the car which directly connects it to the surface ... Final statement - since I usually have little time to get to work in the morning I’m very glad Nokian WR D4 can take me there swiftly and safely.

I've used Nokian WR-G2 for a few years now and was sceptical about the new WR-D4 tyres. They're actually better than the WR-G2 in all respects other than one - the WR-D4 is directional and therefore has to be installed to run with the correct rotation direction, whereas the WR-G2 could be used on any wheel. This means that the D4 can't be rotated as easily for even tyre wear as it is limited to one side of the vehicle. Overall though, I'm very happy with this tyre and it sticks like nobody’s business. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nokian tyres for winter driving, and with the performance of the D4 then it does seem to be an improvement. I'll be giving them a try on the rear wheel drive car next winter when the G2s are worn out and hope they'll be as good as they are on a front wheel drive car.

I was driving in the lives of over one million kilometers already ripped lot of tires, commuting routes can still say something about the comparison tires are great. Among those who remember he rode Debica Frigo good average dry enough and is only in the corners, Pirelli some it very low, Goodyear Ultra Grip 7 very good, average Fulda Krisalp executed quickly, the greatest failure is the worst Bridgestone Blizzak tire I had. NOKIAN wet is sensational wonder 6+ dry summer, dry snow like water 6, wet snow and slush 5-, braking and handling on snow 5+. Perhaps there is a better, but I I will not be looking for her, NOKIAN winter only.

I have not had the opportunity to drive in the snow, although I've driven in conditions -1. Good grip in the wet and dry January 2016 - very wet. The tire is quieter than OEM tires on the car and more comfortable on the pot holed roads. Very happy with the tire until now. Bring on the snow

The sensational and very quiet tire keeps the car on the surface of both dry and wet. The appearance of the tire is also attractive. I recommend!
