Winter 2012/2013 – Experiences (collecting thread)

Dear tyre friends! There are already some special threads for the falcon and the conti, and this thread is not supposed to be a competition to these threads, but rather a sort of collective topic, in which all possible experiences with your tires are supposed to play a role this winter. I start: We had winter weather twice so far. Vehicle: Peugeot 206+ tyres: 185/60 R15 (milling), Nokian WR G2 I drive these tires in the second year, the wear and tear The behaviour of the WR G2 is actually known, because the tire is relatively ‘old’ and has already a double successor. In dry weather the car drives with the Nokians as equipped with summer tires, in cold or snow the Nokian subjectively conveys much (!) more safety than the Semperit Speed Grip I, which was on my car before – at least in combination with my vehicle this is the case. Wet grip at warmer temperatures (10 degrees) seems to me subjectively a little weaker than with my Conti summer tires.
