Set of 2 Nokian Hakkapeliitta LT 3 Studded LT245/75R17 121/118Q E Tires

Coming from a pro driver in MONTANA... I have put 10s or 100s of thousands of miles on every major winter tire. These are legendary tires. If you're contemplating getting studded or not, GET THE STUDDED. That being said I did prefer the LT2 to the LT3 because the outter set of lugs have a little but too much turn in bite at highway speeds. Very polite tires quiet even with studs compared to other studded tires. Amazing at shedding water in the slush and wet too. I can not recommend enough.

Best winter tire I have ever used. Living in NE Ohio we have ice snow deep snow even 50° days. These tires are great with the crazy mix of winter weather we have even with the warm days the next may bring a ice storm so I leave them on. They do show they are a winter tire on the warm days and feel soft but hold up very well. Will definitely buy again when worn out. The studs don't make too much noise on dry asphalt and you don't hear them at all in snow and ice. They are very good in deep snow also. So far I have about 25,000 miles on them at about 75% tread just be warned they are a winter tire and should be removed once it's above 40°.
