Ranked #4 of 7
Securing a respectable 4th place among 7 competitors, the Nokian Weatherproof tire demonstrated compelling performance, eventually earning a 'Sufficient' rating. It stood out particularly for its performance on snow, where it was noted to be satisfactory. This was further corroborated by its exemplary results in specific snow-related disciplines, such as snow braking and snow traction, where it showcased superiority. However, the tire was not without its drawbacks. Testers pointed out that the tire was relatively loud, which could detract from passenger comfort. Moreover, its performance on dry roads was deemed weak, indicating a potential area for improvement. Despite these criticisms, its strengths in winter conditions solidify its position as a viable choice for drivers seeking a reliable all-round tire.
