I had the C2 studdable snow tire without studs Melissa and really liked
them. Great rain/winter/offroad driving tire, good wear.The only thing
"inconvenient" about them is that they are directional, making tire rotation
a little tedious over the long haul
on a Syncro. The difference in stability between them and the Michelins I
had before was incomparable. Very laterally stable
I suspect both for the shorter side ration (65) and belts of the "C" rating.

I think you'll like your choice. Just can't go wrong with Nokian Hakka's.
