Do they come in stock size or close to it? I gotta say the nokians ballad so far have been great as a “normal” tire- in the past I had hankook icebears on a G8GT & it would friggin smoke through em in dry/40+ degree weather- so not ideal, I’ve had blizzaks & they wear better but are loud in general when not in weather conditions, I had Michelin snows too & they were pretty good as a dry weather tire- but, not as good as these nokians which are nearly as quiet as fresh KO2s but don’t push as much in corners. They seem lighter too. I don’t like that they’re very “non-aggressive looking” If that makes sense- although studs would help that lol

I run the Nokian Hakka LT2 all winter here in Michigan. I had the KO2 and switched to Nokian for winter, cant even compare the difference. I mostly have her on the road and even in the worst conditions i'm still glued to the road. Michigan basically closed down last year for a week due to snow, I drove every day that week and I didn't slide(unintentionally) once. Really no need to 4 wheel when you have snowies on.
