Incredibly loud tyres, rumbling since the first kilometer. Driving experience rather spongy but comfortably soft

I was using nokian wr4 before, I didn't see a big difference between them, wet braking and wet grip were not very satisfying, but snow and ice grip was good.

I've been driving on these tires for two seasons now, they're ok in the dry, but nothing much. In the wet and rain, they are barely passable. They are dangerous on snow and ice, they do not inspire confidence. They are not noisy, are comfortable, they don't wear out much. I would not buy again

Bought these because my Sava Eskimo S3+ needed replacement. For first winter I'm very impressed, very good grip in every condition. In comparison to Sava, they offer much more grip, especially in wet and they are much more quieter (previously on motorways I thought that irritating noise is coming from the wheel bearing or engine but after replacing tyres noise was gone). I don't feel any difference in snow between Nexen and Sava but I feel much more confident driving on Nexen then Sava. Excellent tyre for the money, highly recommended!!
