Focus: Standard

The largest and best-selling category, and Nokian Tyres Powerproof belongs to it.

<p>As mentioned in other reviews, these tires are not good for hot climate. The tread wears out super fast.
When new they are very low noise and comfortable</p>

I used it for 4 years and 60,000 km. It's a perfect price-performance tire. I would buy it again without hesitation. I had to change it due to wear at the end of its life and some pieces breaking off, but 60,000 km is not little.

Corners well and wet handling is nice but horrible wear during under sun. As a finnish tyre it wore rapidly at summer during pandemic. First spiderweb appearence at all sides. Then sidewalls began to separate and wires become visible...

★★★★☆

My Nokians are now down to 4 mm of tread depth, after 30000km of driving, mostly highways. Previously I had Michelin Premacy 3 tyres fitted.
Nokians are very well-balanced tyre with great grip on dry and wet roads. During long high-speed driving (over 150 km/h) tyres are very safe with precise steering. Noise level are on the low side, not intrusive in any way even when worn. Wear is higher than my previous tyres Michelin Premacy 3, but this was expected for UHP tyres.
Fuel consumption is Ok, I did not notice some differences compared to Premacy 3. For perfect experience I believe that ride comfort should be little bit better with better dumping capabilities.
If I could find these 20% cheaper than other premium brands (as I did last time), I would buy them again for sure.

★★★★☆

First two years doing fain, good grip, good comfort, but the handling could be better (soft side). My big problem is the wear, i mean the tyres have only 3 years and rubber have many cracks, need to change them because seems not safe to ride.
