Nokian Hakkapeliitta 8 SUV 265/45R20, Studded

[ngng]

Saw these on sale and couldn't pass up a great deal. I didn't feel like pulling all the studs out so I'm going to run them as is. I've run the studless Hakka 8s on my F350 and loved them. Anybody have experience with these?

I'll report back after I get a chance to drive on them. Grabbed a set of coded TPMS sensors off eBay for $30. We'll see if they actually pair!

I lived in the Placerville area for years...when we actually had lots of snow. In Oregon now..waiting for rain...

Had a chance to drive in some snow and ice and the tires are what I would expect from a Nokian. A little bit of tire noise but nothing unbearable. Studs don't make much noise above 10-15mph. Logged about 500 miles round trip to Tahoe and saw 415 Wh/mi at 45pis. Replaced my OEM sensors with a set of eBay TPMS for cheap and they were immediately picked up.
