Nokian Tire Hakkapeliitta 9 SUV Studded
From the world’s northernmost tire manufacturer (a claim that’s no joke when you’re talking about snow tires) comes the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 9 SUV Studded winter tire.
Nokian Hakkapeliitta 9 SUV Studded Features
A true winter warrior, the Nokian Hakkapeliitta 9 SUV Studded is here to win back your winter commute—even when you’re faced with blizzard-level driving conditions.
When the mercury drops below 45 degrees and you need fearless grip for your light truck or SUV, look to the Hakkapeliitta 9 SUV Studded winter tire. It might be hard to spell, but it makes winter driving easy.
Building on the innovative stud design used on previous iterations of the Hakkapeliitta, this winter tire utilizes two different stud types to provide grip on straightaways and curves.
Thanks to these multi-directional studs, the Hakkapeliitta SUV 9 helps you stay in control even when the roads are more like an ice rink than streets. And because they’re built with Nokians’ Eco Stud Cushion, you may feel like you’re as stable as a tank but it won’t feel like you’re driving in a tank.
(As an added benefit, this environmentally friendly stud design reduces road impact, causing less damage to your neighborhood streets.)
Other performance features of the Hakkapeliitta 9 SUV Studded include:
- Aramid fiber-reinforced sidewalls create additional durability, resisting tears and punctures.
- Flexibility in sub-zero temperatures provided by its canola oil-enhanced rubber compound.
- Interlocking sipes, large shoulder blocks and solid center rib provide unrelenting control on dry roads.
- For added braking power on deep snow, it’s built with a snow grip boosting sawtooth pattern on the tread blocks.
- 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake Rated, it exceeds the industry’s standards for use in severe snow and winter weather.

These Hakkapelliiitaaaa tires are extremely effective on snow and ice. The route to my home includes a mile long 14% incline and so far this winter my drive has been stress free. I have on occasion had to pass other drivers who where spinning their wheels trying to go up. If you drive on snow and ice especially on mountainous roads, you must get these tires. With only 3000 miles on these tires, I don't yet have an idea about tread life but I have noticed that some studs are wearing.
