I just had the Nokian WR tires installed on my car yesterday. We'll have to compare our experiences after it starts snowing. They handle great in dry conditions.

Nokian WRH

The nokian WRH are very good tires on dry and wet payment. I drove home tonight during a small snow storm and felt the car handled terribly. I had a 2002 impala before the Acura, both with Nokia snow tires, and I am not happy with the Acura's snow manners. I couldn't make it up the hill to my house today. I didn't have a problem in 2 winters in the Impala.
I love the Acura though. I'm wondering if the VSA is the root cause of all my hill clombing trouble.
