Nokian Tyres Nordman 7

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Winter weather traction
• Enhanced controllability
• High driving comfort levels

OVERVIEW

The Nokian Tyres Nordman 7 is a touring, winter tire manufactured for passenger vehicles and SUVs.

The tire promotes excellent winter traction. The tire combines the detailed directional tread pattern and the winter weather traction to increase the cold temperature dry, wet and winter weather performance. The tread design, with the detailed siping pattern enhances the number of biting edges gripping the ice- and snow-covered road surface during the tire's performance. The compound maintains the rubber flexibility in colder temperatures with the durable rubber materials. The tread is pinned for studs, which can be added to further increase the grip on the road surface. The zigzag and detailed groove pattern avoids hydroplaning by dispersing water and slush from below the footprint. In this manner, the tire promotes a secure winter weather performing ability.

The tread's directional pattern increases the controllability. The unique continuous center rib maintains the surface contact throughout the tire's performance, significantly boosting the steering responsiveness and the driving stability. This enhances the steering accuracy and response time to the driver's commands, while the structure is secured against the driving pressure affecting the model during the drive. The directional pattern's high-density siping detail shortens the braking distance. These sipes create friction between the tire and the road surface at the moment of braking, decreasing the braking distance and promoting a secure performing capability.

The Nordman 7 boosts the driving comfort levels. The tread's close and constant surface contact allows the model to absorb the shock of driving while the tires are in motion. This minimizes the road vibrations felt in the vehicle's cabin during the drive. As a result, road disturbances cannot dampen the passenger's driving enjoyment, guaranteeing a comfortable and enjoyable driving experience.

Nokian's studdable winter tires require special studs. For this reason, Nokian winter tires can only be studded at their factory. Therefore, tire shops will not be able to install studs into Nokian tires in the US.

Manufacturers recommend changing tires every 10 years. As long as tires are properly stored before they are sold, the year of their manufacture will not shorten their service life.
