Features and Benefits: Improved controllability; Winter weather traction; Fuel efficient performance; Exceptional tread life; Nokian Tyres Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV TiresThe Nokian Tyres Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV is a touring, winter tire manufactured for SUVs. This model comes with directional tread elements that significantly improve controllability and driving stability. The footprint is able to closely follow the driving surface, greatly enhancing steering response time and accuracy to the driver's instructions. The tire responds faster to the driver's commands, allowing them to maintain great control over the vehicle. The optimized tread with the high-density siping provides exceptional grip to the driving surface. The detailed directional tread elements provide a strong grip to the driving surface, enhancing the overall performance on ice- and snow- covered road surfaces. The strong compound optimizes the rubber flexibility in harsh winter weather conditions, while tread elements offer a high number of biting edges to the driving surface. The model benefits from metal studs placed across the tread area to enhance winter weather traction. The angled lateral grooves are able to disperse water and slush from the footprint while tires are in motion, preventing hydroplaning in the process. The Nokian Tyres Hakkapeliitta 10 SUV comes with specially designed tread that is able to lower the rolling resistance and provide a longer lasting tread life. The tread elements balance out load and driving pressure across the tread area, avoiding irregular wear. The strong, durable compound materials slow down the treadwear rate and resist premature wear. On the other hand, the lowered rolling resistance reduces fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. The combination of these features promotes an environmentally friendly and cost efficient driving experience. Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
