How to Choose Summer TiresIn this tyres review we will tell you about main criteria to consider when choosing the right summer tyres for your car

I bought it because I considered it low-noise. I liked the aggressive tread pattern. Reasonable price, made in Finland. When I picked it up at the transport company's warehouse, I couldn't find the "made in Finland" marking. Later, I found the factory marking in the city of Nokian IYL. Winters are mild, with light plus and light minus temperatures. Mostly asphalt conditions. That's why I chose Euro winter tires. Previously, with the Arctic type, I had problems with braking on wet asphalt at positive temperatures. With these tires, traction on dry and wet asphalt at light minus and light plus is excellent, just like summer tires in summer. It plows through fresh wet snow superbly. On ice, there's nothing outstanding, but I didn't expect anything either. No winter tire, even studded, will provide the same traction on ice as summer tires do in summer. Miracles don't happen; caution is required. The tire is stiff. Maybe because, in my size 235/65R17, only the load index 108 is available, while the factory spec is 104 with a pressure of 2.35. Kia Sorento 3, weight 1900 kg. Had to reduce the pressure to 2.15; the stiffness became more acceptable. Very noisy! And I bought it for being low-noise. It hums loudly on asphalt at any speed. In the city, it's manageable, but on the highway during long trips, it's tiring. I understand why it hums, looking at the open grooves for snow drainage. I don't understand how the EU label could be misleading. It's nowhere near 70 decibels or even 72. My summer tires are 70 dB—silence. aggressive tread pattern, confidence when driving on snow. Reasonable price. Fresh. Stiffness and noisiness. Clear non-compliance with the Euro label regarding noise. Maybe they measured the noise not on asphalt but on snow? By the end of the season, it seemed to me that the stiffness and noisiness were somewhat reduced. Maybe I just got used to it or maybe it broke in.

Symmetrical tread pattern
The tire features a tread with symmetrically arranged blocks separated by cross-diagonal channels for efficient water evacuation. The drainage grooves widen from the center toward the shoulder areas, speeding up self-cleaning of the contact patch from water and slush. As a result, the tire’s grip characteristics are improved.
Balanced driving performance
Zigzag sipes in the tread blocks create extra biting edges for confident driving on slippery surfaces. Nokian Snowproof 2 SUV maintains stable contact with winter roads, responds precisely to steering inputs, and keeps the rubber elastic across a wide temperature range.
Quiet operation and long service life
Silica is added to the rubber compound, and the sidewalls are reinforced with aramid fibers for increased durability. A separate advantage is Silent Drive technology: a foam layer on the inside of the tread reduces noise while driving. Rounding out the picture is a long service life until the tread is fully worn.
