The Nokian WeatherProof is an all-season tyre for passenger cars. It is noted for its good performance in summer conditions and its resistance to skidding in autumn and winter conditions.
The model's high performance has been confirmed in numerous tests. Its winter specifications have been tested in Ivalo (north of the Arctic Circle), while its performance at high speeds has been put to the test on tracks in Germany and Spain.
The Nokian WeatherProof has a directional tread pattern, which ensures excellent dispersal of water and slush, making the model resistant to aquaplaning and slushplaning. The model retains stability on snowy roads. Every element of the Nokian WeatherProof has a special function.
The central part of the tread has an aggressive design to effectively disperse water and slush, giving the driver more control over the car in difficult conditions. The blades bite into the snow, thus improving traction. Wide circumferential grooves disperse water and snow to the sides, minimising the risk of aquaplaning.
The Nokian WeatherProof is made from an innovative rubber compound, which retains its flexibility across a wide range of temperatures, ensuring better grip and protection against rapid wear. The model is also available in versions for SUVs and vans.
Nokian Tyres is a tyre manufacturer with a lot of experience in the sector. The Finish company cemented its place in automotive history as the first company to launch the winter tyre. It is currently renowned for its excellent range of tyres suited to difficult weather conditions. The brand's tyres are most popular in Northern Europe, Central and Eastern Europe, Russia and North America. As well as winter tyres, Nokian Tyres also produces summer and all-season tyres.
