Nokian Wr D4

225/50 R17 98H
The Nokian WR D4 continued Nokian's strong reputation with winter tyres. It was sixth in the 2018 Auto Express magazine test, finishing second in three of the four snow tests – braking, traction, and circle – which may have been expected of the Finnish brand. What may not have been foreseen was its first place in dry handling and rolling resistance.
