very Very pleased with this tire. Quiet, firm yet sublet ride. Night and day over last set we had.
Love these Nokian tires - WOW.
So, I ended up doing lots of research for tires on my Wife's 2009 Saab 9-7x SUV. While a dated vehicle (it is a rebadged Chevy Trailblazer from that year BUT properly done with full frame, V8 engine, trailering package, 3.73 post-track, etc.) - it is a perfect sized vehicle and very comfortable for us. The problem - I did not want to spend $1K+ on tires as vehicle has 183k on it but in great shape...wanted safety for winter but quiet for rest of year.
A bad set of tires can haunt you for years. Purchased this set, made sure we had a proper alignment done and checked ball joints, etc, and had them mounted and balanced last week. Finally had chance to drive them this weekend. WOW - firm yet a subtle ride, perfectly quiet!! - I was floored as I thought they'd be at least audible due to the aggressive tread. No noise. No vibration when on highway. I am very pleased by this tire.
FYI - the set we received was made in Finland.
