What does a demonstration like this prove? A lot of places do not allow studded tires and people tend to have problems on cornering and braking not straight line driving.
Yeah, and a lot of places don't have a proper winter at all... In REAL winter conditions, there's nothing like a good set of studded tires such as these Hakkapeliitta 5's. Non-studded winter tyres are good nowadays aswell, but in conditions in which the every bit of grip is needed (wet slick ice), the studs are just in a different league.
We got 270 inches of snow this year, so I would call that a REAL winter and studded tires are only allowed on public service vehicles. I'd still like to see how the car handles on corners against other tires, and how much VDC impacts its performance.
Fair enough, that surely counts as a real winter then.
Indeed breaking and cornering tests would be more informative for average ppl, but I guess the point of this demonstration was just different in nature... And I bet doing 321 km/h on ice requires good grip even when driving on a straight line :)
Yep, I'd definitely agree you will need good grip, and maybe an adult diaper! Doubt if any studless tires are even rated for that speed! I know the Blizzaks on my Subaru are not! We are at Zip 49931, so most of what we get is Lake Effect.
It's difficult to go 199MPH on dry pavement. Aerodynamic lift and stability become really big issues. On the Bonneville Salt Flats, many cars will lose control and spin out because of a lack of traction. Additionally, I have not heard of snow tires that were rated for this speed.
i don't get this shit, those are hakkas rsi which are friction tires, they are not studdable. so how come they seem to have studs on them in this video? I got exact same ones!
Rsi's are soo good they dont need studs instead they have a stupid amount of sipes which are the small cuts all over the tread of the tire to spread out under preasure to provide more surface area
greatest tires out there kal tire is big on them thats our biggest seller

@pcharles67
I have the studless Hakka Rsi's on my accord- and I'm on zip 49931, post me a message and maybe you could test the Nokian's for yourself

Unless my math is WAY off, 321KPH = 199MPH! That's a little hard to believe, but if they did it, cheers to them.

Given the car in case, what is there that's so hard to believe? :D

They are actually Nokian Hakkapeliitta SUV 5's and not RSI's. Google "new ice driving world record", take 2nd or 3rd link and read. :)
