I need a good studless tire and these got good reviews. I wanted the Nokian R5 EV but my tire guy is saying those don't come in 23 xlt er size.

I wanted to, but kind of got screwed over by the tire place that said they had them in stock but then ooops it turns out we don't. After I had already ordered the wheels from somewhere else. Could have saved the mounting & balancing fee if I had bought the tires & wheels at one place.

Anyway yes they looked good to me too. It's true there aren't too many options in that diameter unless you go with LT tires. I ended up with the Hankook Winter i*pike (W429A) 265/70R18. They seemed pretty good for the couple of months I had them on. Nice and quiet and didn't notice any drop in efficiency (although that's really hard to tell since it's so weather dependent).

Yes, I put them on last winter. Only put 3500 miles on them and they worked well in Ice and snow conditions.

Please don't tell my 22 Lariat ER that, it's blissfully unaware of any issues with the set I have on.
