People stopped fitting nokian these days …??
Very difficult to source them at the moment.
I had Nokian Weatherproof on my T6 for 24K miles, I thought they were great tyres and they had loads of tread left but they became so noisy I couldn't put up with the drone.
Yes, got them on my caravelle 4M, not bad, slightly more road noise than the Nokian they replaced.
I’d like to know if new nokian are any good love my nokians
I loved my Nokians too, they were great on road and off for over 20K miles, but then got progressively noisier despite having 4 mm tread left. I binned them when the road noise became too intrusive but they could have done another 20K if I wasn't so fussy about the noise.
I don’t think they are all season tyres are they?
Not all season.... They are on and off-road summer tyres for 4x4 and SUVS.
Just stumbled across Maxxis Premitra All-Season AP3 SUV tyres, which come in a variety of sizes (including 225/65 R17 that I'm interested in). I haven't seen these tyres mentioned here so thought I'd share.
I’m suprised there isn’t an out n out favourite really
I have been running Michelin CrossClimate 2 suv 235/55/18 104 since October 2021 and think they're great....
They ranked well in the Autobild passenger car and SUV all season tyre test and should last a long time which is why I bought them plus at 104 they are fine for the T32....

Same here, I have them on my T6, the other half's Kuga and my parents Touran. They are great all season tyres, not quite as good as Cross Climate 2 (which are widely regarded as the best all season tyres you can now buy) in thick snow but better performance in the wet and considerably cheaper. This is a really good review of the best of the best all season tyres linky

Hi all,
I’m going to need a new set of tyres soon.
My van came with two sets of VW oem 16” steel wheels. The previous owner lived in the alps in the winter.
I’m unlikely to ever need winter tyres. I won’t be driving in Europe in the winter and the UK just isn’t cold enough for long enough to really warrant a winter set.
What all season tyre would you recommend for an oem 16” steel wheel.
I’ve got a T6 t2.8 swb converted to a camper.
Is that enough information?
Thanks.

Stick them on eBay or gumtree - you’d never know, a builder’s van may need some!
Make a chiminea / pot belly stove!
I have Uniroyal rain sport 5s and they are lasting well and sure footed in the wet to the extent I’ll probably sell my winters! These are 235/50 R18s 101 load rated on amarok steels.

All-Season Tyre recommendations
Hi, newbie here so please forgive if I have missed an earlier response on this - I have searched the forum. I have 18" wolfrace Eurosport aero's fitted which came from the camper conversion company with budget sports tyres. The tyres are wearing fast and are useless on grass/mud/snow. I'm...
