A normal rainy day in the city. Puddle, a treacherous blow and hiss in the area of the front arches! Lurking the pit "helped" to break through the sidewall of the wheel — usually this means the purchase of new tires! The situation found in most Russian cities and is particularly relevant for million cities: Ekaterinburg, Chelyabinsk, Omsk... We alexzzn long experimented with the height and sharpness of the bar, which must run into — had for the sake of punching two Hakkapeliita 8, main the found optimum!
The height of the bar was 92 mm, but we put it blunt side for contact with the tire. Because most of the punctures/cuts on the road comes not from wells, and from the contact of the disk with the tire sidewall when driving irregularities.

comfort when driving irregularities
Weaknesses:
— weak on end-to-end breakdown of the sidewall
— noisy
— spread reactions on dry pavement

Weak sidewall is just about Haqq. Moreover, and the 7 and 8 fits. 7 otjezda 3 weeks put 6! 6 Carl hernias on the sidewalls of the wheels and threw her to hell :)
Two years in the Hakka 7 no hernias
After хакки4 where Cathal season and in the end broke the sidewall on the front koosah, thank God at the end of the season) Then there was Hakka rsi, it skated fine. More Haqq did not take. Since realized that the sidewall is weak they need to drive very carefully.
Well, maybe the mud was so dragged. There is no unique Universal cramps at all times of the year. Me she is completely satisfied with the performance. And the quality — the sides would be thicker, stronger.

That just did the same trouble. Bought 2 seasons ago Haqq 7, size 245/45/19. Last year saw a lot of tips of thorns ulalena that upset because tires are not cheap. And one wheel broke. But the puncture was small — brewed. This year, I managed from 2 wheel to penetrate from one side. Waited 3 hours for a tow on the highway, all perematerilsya. The pothole wasn't so big, even the wheels to rule it was not necessary, and the sidewall broke.It's a shame in one word. I had to re-cook! And tire impression produced in the Finca.
Well if the manufacturer gives such a guarantee (I mean sharing), sorry I did not know about this before, so it would have changed though.
Look in what condition it will be after the end of the season.
A week ago, tore the right side, right one in the Udmurt Republic, the second in Tatarstan. Both on the release. :(
Unhappy with 7 coy. Light snow, down the slope, pulling the machine. Two weeks vacation nearly went to 3 of the rear bumper.

looking where to go for Moscow of course Velcro in high esteem
Yes, everywhere, in Moscow, St. Petersburg and all the cities South of them. And that more than half of the country.
many people think that bought a good spikes, and can in the summer as to drive in the winter.

we also have a couple people hurt, they'll think that I bought the best rubber =)
the best doesn't mean we at home mind to forget!

Recently also the crash test was on Kade.Just exploded on the line.There is no guarantee, so don't exchange.
for the third winter on it. Went 200-220 on it, what kind of noise is it, not quite understand... Absolutely quiet tires.

clear!thank you!
Yes, now already did not Shine. I had to ask garantinis. As I did when buying a summer Nokian in the online store: www.drive2.ru/l/453101046298838331/
I drove on them already 7 thousand, spikes somewhere on 3-4 pieces on the front, no rear, everything is in place.But I can not ride safely.With the handbrake in the turns, on the track and up to 180 used to driving.rubber is quite stable on snow and ice.I like it.

I would like to see the toyo observe g3-ice
Expected more from them! Snow is good in principle, but on the ice it's Achtung... a lot of Spikes flew for the first season.

go a third season on this. Of the minuses — very soft--15 to -10 degrees. ". Swimming" In the cold more sustainable. And spikes too thin. Even I, with very careful driving part out. Have friends of almost 80% .Summer love Toyo. But winter is not their Forte(. Not to say that a very bad rubber, but I expected more. So again inclined to Gislaved.
But Nitto still would like to try
Nitto — Toyo is the same. type subsidiary brand.
the spikes on Toyo really fly fast. the Nokian with such did not face never.
too right!) So I probably Gislaved and enjoy.
Maybe acapella real good, but I long ago bought a very steep then the fifth. If you and worth the money, but only half. Stampout every year for the new model and the price tag is a space for what is not clear(.
the idea of winter tires is necessary to take the manufacturer of those countries where winter in Russia)) I know a lot about winter tires))
they have just recently appeared.And became very interested. If only that's how with winter Toyo not to burn yourself.(
нитто860 year) very good! it's all the same sister too) Nitto winter I think, too, to take) the reviews did not seem bad)

5-I, 7-I hack thorn. full g...In the slush machine has to catch. For me Michelin and Goodyear much better
Go somewhere else invent a fairy tale, "the northerner stern"... Storyteller, Hans Christian...
Ah-ha-ha, an expert on the area "North Peter" ...
You have there the snow fell, howling all over the country — traffic jams and we all die!
Interesting movie, really testing winter wheels on the pavement in warm weather( At Nokian in the cold on ice and snow no competitors, to the South of St. Petersburg there is no special meaning in these wheels, spikes will only interfere. They are noisy on the pavement. Warmer than -5 they do not work as a winter. We also have some individuals who are riding in winter Velcro, watching the tests from Moscow and conducted. The Arctic circle is the place this rubber, you don't need it.
As a PS. Supplement, please note who repeat the pattern of the winter tyres of the previous generation of today's leaders of tests. That says a lot.
Not because of the damage to the asphalt, and due to security reasons. Spike crashes to speed, and flies like a bullet. Count at a speed of 200km/h will fly the ship head-on. he pierced the car through. This is one reason, the second on the asphalt (and the roads in most countries of the EU clean) studded tires are bad in managing and braking. Well, in short, something like that.
NAS in Austria and Romania, like Slovakia. with some restrictions (cannot be used where they may damage the asphalt)
You with this the European Union?
Why is the EU for you so authoritative?
It be known that the studding is permitted only in the Nordic EU countries Finland, Sweden (Norway just Europe), the Baltic States can not be considered, as if they are there but they are not authoritative and are not significant. In other EU countries banned my boot and that's a fact.
And when you begin to respect the opinion of their experts? Just do not need to repeat that you do not. You just don't want to hear them.
HACK 8 215/55R16 fourth season (16pcs+61шт+76шт+104шт) dropped the spikes, of course is not considered as just a number, well, if 190шт on 205/55R16,the wear 15%+ 32%+40%+54% each wheel, a note made in Russia, not Finland, I have to discuss here www.drive2.ru/l/458501572536588809/
hack have not a clear rubber... Even be considered as varaint was not because everyone who took care. Took a new Pireli zero ice with two position studs - that's what I understand rubber and the price is good
after the hack 4 decided not to buy skated on it 2.5 of the season to the 2nd season fell spikes of 70 percent,and 3 on 3 balonem fluent hernia, ride on Dunlop Ice... full, the third season, the spikes in place but rubbed a little, and protector as was and remained

The people, advise the studding 175/70 R13
Ride on Bridgestone ice Cruiser 5000, it's time to change the tires.
Kama Euro!) For three years, 10-15 percent of thorns lost...and then only on the front)
Ice Cruiser 7000!
Himself to Conti ice contact 4X4 ride, dream to change into breeches (was to Conti).

Hi all. Live on the Yamal Peninsula Cathal HKPL 1, 5, 7 now ride 8. Experience riding on different tires and my experience says that for my conditions Haq steers. In other warmer regions are probably better than others.
why the heck to shout out every letter "A" is already turned off — did not look

Waiting for test dermansky Kama, Belshina and Matador
Kama Euro — thing! For 2.5 season and I drove about 25 tons. once unfolded on the icy descent with a turn — my mistake in choosing the speed. A couple of times failed to climb vnatyag on the icy slope — pushed. Snow, slush, wet asphalt and a water gauge her uneasy. High snezhnye parapets between lanes at high speed — not really, maybe boltanut'. After the second season povyletali quarter spikes in the front, but this is not surprising — winters really was not.

Waiting for test dermansky Kama, Belshina and Matador
I have a Volvo worth a Matador...you know, I had also considered her level of Belshina.go second.super!
Very slippery, for some reason, whether it's snow-covered surface, ice, wet asphalt!
X8 if the height 70 and marking XL this does not mean that the reinforced sidewall?
owner Хаки8 185/70 R14 wear only in winter, for off season thanks Nordman you do not mind to kill in the pits and other things...
On ice and snow really has no equal, on the count of spikes is not ready to speak, ran in 700km on the second season did not 30шипов on all 4 wheels.
As noted above many errors to forgive, track, and snow it's her turn...then a stop at my little Logan with the question what kind of rubber...the dry asphalt and water so its not Velcro.
The noise is actually when on long haul are not a lot of pulls but add music and standards, although again the Logan noise present.
2500+ mass is the norm.width. the more that the actual width of the contact patch, this rubber less. On the icy crust, it is quite clawed tracks.
Well, after some time running a little better she is clinging like.
By the way, after 2 seasons of wear less than 20% and the loss of spikes 4/2/2/1.
Too wide tires took and that is not held for the ice mass is not enough to the spikes to stick. 225 it was necessary to take not cool but safer on the ice.
Interesting review.
Decided this year to buy Haqq, but I needed a large. The desired size (285/75R16) only had ЛТ2. Decided that the Hakka! Premium! Certainly no worse than Cooper Discoverer M+S. But!
The first experience showed that snow is 100% better. On the pavement — well, too normal... not worse for sure... but with braking, perhaps even better.
But the first hit is on the ice, and all subsequent delivered only disappointment. Floating on an icy turn and suspiciously long braking distance in a straight line.
Just this morning I was driving Prado (from the past) on Hakkah 7 SUV. On the arc of a turn (snow-covered ice, apparently) — has sailed in the snow... I followed him, I think if I was the first to have swum the same. Turn me well-known, so I can say that the speed wasn't too big for him. The Cooper previous winters I had not swum here. As I understand 7Сув and ЛТ2 little different... the 7s are not reinforced cord and a little more than spikes, in my opinion, and in figure like the same even.
In General, a mixed rubber of some sort. Like and good, but something is wrong.
By the way, if possible, would be an interesting test of different generations of the same rubber. For example, the same khaki 5, 7, 8... Well, about the comparison with SUV and ЛТ2 not dreaming, because this specificity even for large machines. But if such a test would be very nice.
tires, and especially winter and spikes objectively test half life, otherwise you get caught up in not long-lived constructive tricks
Have these tyres were bought when we did. Very satisfied! lost 4 of the season only 1 spike, as for the noise I do not agree is very quiet. and what about the spread of behavior in the asphalt completely agree.
Hack 7 th I have 4 seasons on the Subaru the road just sticks with a traffic light with a hell of buxom and all the thorns in place .Have to roll and roll, but got bumps, and 2 broken inner Cord to go is not possible, has scared much. And the other with the 70 profile is also broken inner cord, the wheel became oval barely before the tire arrived. After that from the hacks refused.
I have a HAKA 5 195/65 R15 PR-VA Russia.Ride the 7th season. On the 7th season tyre sentenced one wheel ejection due to violation of the geometry(turned into "donut") With 4 wheels fell about 15 spines, the rest of the place, a lot of the spikes have faded due to objective reasons.The last 2 years was more often stuck in the winter, but the road behavior is still acceptable. The total mileage of 110 000 km, i.e., the rubber was held in the region of 45 000 km. noise don't know I have a weak guise of arches itself. The probability that I buy the hack again high.
Interesting review, but it was not necessary to speak at 2:25 ! why? the rate was increasing with every word. And we are trying to drive Norodom what can fly and what will not! why to sell so and so many will buy!
so it seems to me that there must be good gum.
also this winter I'll try, knowingly bought)
megacharged
what, can't hold the road? like the spikes much more compared to 7кой.
perfectly, if made in Finland! I bought a 2015 last winter and after pereobuvki any lost ship
they are much less than on 7-ke, and again, it all depends on comparison . I'm writing my perception because in 100% I believe Black rocket br50 full studding in trenirovochno 1.5 mm spike ... how would I compare in harsh conditions (ice and snow) this minimonsta, that is, when I was younger and I was not lazy and when Moscow filled up with snow I wore these sneakers combat and piled in Moscow on them . take it for 100% return invested the loot I got a buzz... from the Nokian 8 =50% to the loads it is clearly not prepared, it turns out I spent a lot on tires, and on sheet ice or snow and the mess it doesn't hold even at 60-70% although Pirelli and HACK 7 give a normal feeling, and hence the question why pay for it? especially Made in RUS . And believe me I'm not anyone not Campaigning to say no from Nokian, they still produce a good rubber, but the Euro norms spoiling her that's all... and if you went to HACK 7 you almost always enough, then KHAKI 8 can be shortages for some reason, But if you from the category of people who are in the ABS in the winter do not run it you can choose good wheels
skated a season on 8-ke can not say that Euro standards will ruin the Nokian, she's not worth the money very average tyre that is turned out in the harsh environment she is not working as worked hack 5 or even 7 , but in normal weather it is not given one hundred percent. I'm not willing to pay so much money for a tire that does not work in heavy snow and ice. and The unclean 7-10 thousand km of mileage lost 20-25% spikes when you tread 7.5 mm I believe it is unacceptable for the money . next season on Perelli which are two times cheaper and under difficult conditions can still be hitting on her... assessment of the combination of price-quality 2... General impressions of the rubber apart from the price a solid 4...
megacharged
can't believe that 13 year old rubber is better than new.
Almost "forgot" about this sucks... But winter was upset, "no Farther!
Bought in the autumn a new set X 8 on the car. Traveled more than half of the winter. Just could not believe that NOKIA could "...but" done! Disappointed, perematerilsya all! In short, they brought from the country of the old K-t X 4 (2004) and pereobuli machine in normal rubber. X 8 sold and the elbow crossed... good luck to All...
normally inflate tyres, not on what the pit is not probate, the faster the wheel will come off...
already anywhere. like the new Haqq 7.
now only the Nordman 5 and Nordman Haqq 7 or 8...
The 5th season is over, 5 years and serves me faithfully for 5 hack.with my rough style of riding lost 6 spikes from all 4 wheels.Eeeeh, where the same new to buy...
bought hack 8 in December, was filmed here last weekend - on the same tire no 16! spikes
especially not to drive, but a little disappointed now
Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 is not a panacea . although the rubber is excellent. before Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 went to the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 7 and Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 wins on all counts .
The IMPUNITY AND PERMISSIVENESS of the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 has led to a sad ending
Keaf
Everything is fine with winter pirelli
ride now Pirelli ice zero now as the third season opens with them, great tyres with a huge drawback — NOISY. Spikes 2 seasons everything in place. Recommend. Himself now on the other car looking at the Hakka 8 (don't like the figure, very few lamellae), Nordman 7
The season of travel on the Hakkapelitta 8, to it 2 season Pirelli Ice Zero.
In a side demolition wins Pirelli. In terms of braking and grip on the road (including in the plus weather) — Nokian
That's it...my version...struck this winter, the sidewall having flown in the ditch doing 90 somewhere ((...rubber is good, but expensive, and can only find 1 wheel b.from. now I can not((
Guys don't want to upset you, but made in Finland and made in Russia are made on the same production lines and are on adjacent shelves in a warehouse
enjoyed the first winter Hakkapeliitta 8(made in Finland)-happy as an elephant)))

There was a bear 2 years ago that winter pereobuli in Nokian and also Velcro, so Michelin was much better, sadness, trouble is...
the season finished on 8 hack.
excellent tires, not cheap though.
in our region consider only the spikes!
picked up the Nokia mostly because of the warranty, not yet useful, but warms the soul)
but the comfortable ride in the winter and not worry because of the soft sidewall.
in comparison with the Velcro, the sky and land on the ice! on rails on the ice track went!
do not drive in the winter! no matter how good was not rubber, don't forget the head! winter is winter! good rubber only gives an advantage but not immortality!
Completely agree with the authors, except for one point. The spikes are holding up great. Drove 4 seasons on them (about 35 thousand km) lost about 1 or 2 of the stud to the wheel. For me the main disadvantage was the noise of rubber and deep-seated thorns, they seemed weak for the ice to cling to, although it may be only seemed. Snow and ice is the element of these tyres. On the pavement is so-so.
