Compare Nokian Hakkapeliitta R2 SUV tyre prices

Tires are excellent in snow when accelerating and driving straight. But in lateral grip the tires are really bad. You cant take any curves or turn in a street without feeling the car slide sideways a little bit, even in slow speeds and even on dry roads. I had the vredestein wintrac on a sports rear wheel drive car before and it performed much better. I bought the Nokian R2 suv because they were new tires from Nokian with newer technology but it seems like they missed out on a few things. On ice and on dry roads theyre not that good. In wet they are pretty good. No aquaplaning at all. I drive different kind of cars with different types of tires and all i can say is there is better than this for a brand that says they are the best in winter...winter is not only about snow, but slush, rain, cold, freeze, wet, dry...these tires dont feel right.
