wrote: WR - the only true "all season" tire. This tire passes the "Severe Service" test for winter tires- so it can be classified as a winter tire, although Nokian markets it as a year round use tire. The WR works better in the winter than any other "all season" tire. It is on par with most other manufacturers "snow tires" in snow and on ice. They are a great rain tire. They are a good choice if you have a front wheel or 4- wheel drive vehicle and don't want to change your tires each season. They are marketed as 50,000 mile tires, but I seem to see more like 40,000. I bought Nokian WR this winter and they are perfect. Here in the Netherlands they're sold as 'central Europian winter tyres' and not as all seasons tyres. They're absolutely the best on wet roads (that what we have the most in winter), but the other Nokian tyres perform better on snow and ice (maybe better in those beautiful areas where you can ski). At least that was the result from a Norwegian test that I found. By the end of march I'll change to my good old summer tyres again, because I don't believe in all season tyres.
