Customer Reviews
These are excellent snow tires for a Minnesota winter. I put these on both of my AWD Audis and they are unstoppable even in the thickest, heaviest snow. They work well on my 2021 RS6 at 285/30/22 and on my Q7 at 285/35/21. They get a little squishy in warmer weather, as expected for a dedicated snow tire, but not as much as other brands. I was a bit hesitant because I usually buy Nokian snow tires, but they do not offer a Hakkapelitta in the size I needed, but I am very happy with how these snow tires performed, especially at their price point.
