I’ve had Nokian WR G4 tires on my 2020 Kia Soul for 4 years now. I really like them and they are really good on wet, slippery slushy, and snow covered roads.

Great info.
I also decided to put this on our Tesla Model Y long range but went with lower rims - 18s. This shoud help a little bit on ride comfort and should be Ok on our Toronto weather.

If you live in a place where there is snow 'permanently' on the ground for more than 2 months of the winter, then you 'NEED' pure-winter tires simply to avoid getting into an accident where you slam into the vehicle ahead of you when you try to brake, but you can't stop as fast as the person ahead of you as you have all-weather tires on, while the person ahead of you has pure-winter tires on. If you live in an area will less snow, then all-weather tires are fine.

Hi Murad,
Do you still recommend these Nokian all weather tires?
I’m tired of swapping back and forth between all season and winter tires, so I’m thinking of getting these …
Please let me know if you’re happy with them?
Thanks

The first issue I see with changing tires on your existing OEM rims, which is the tradition followed in the video, is that it cost an extra $60-$80 in the fall and an extra $60-$80 in the spring when you change them back. The other problem, is that if you have large wheels And you keep the existing wheels and put your winters on them, you were actually getting less traction because you’re using a larger tire. It’s better actually to buy smaller wheels one size down from the OEM size and then put winter tires on those. The other advantage to having a separate set of wheels is that you don’t damage the OEM wheels. When they take the rubber off of your OEM wheels, they literally pry it off and damage can result over time. Whereas if you buy a separate set of wheels with your winter tires, you avoid that. I do agree, however, that putting steely’s on a new car is downright ugly and should be avoided. Although they save some money, they look terrible, and they make your new car look old.
So yes, if you were to get separate wheels without getting too fancy and not get steely’s, you don’t have to spend a lot but you’re probably spending $200 per wheel which would obviously total $800. However, in five years of peeling, the rubber off your OEM rims, you will have spent that $800 anyway, you would have less traction in the snow and ice, and you would’ve risk damaging your OEM wheels. Plus if you love your OEM wheels, why expose them to salt? So for me, buying separate wheels is a must however, as always, Dyson provides great insight into the Kia, EV six, and all his videos are generally excellent.

If you read the fine print the pot hole protection is just for the first year.
