A new summer tyre for top-speed driving
Nokian Z is a tyre for top-speed driving that combines excellent wet grip, precise controllability and clean rubber compounds. The design of the tyre has concentrated on safety under extreme situations and environmental friendliness.
The layer beneath the tread compound reduces rolling resistance and heat emission and strengthens the tyre’s structure. The tyre wears evenly and maintains its good properties throughout its useful life.
The acoustically optimised tread pattern and the noise cavities of the main grooves dampen tyre noise, making it pleasant.
With its extremely good wet grip, the rubber compound on the shoulder areas provides more effective grip when braking and cornering and ensures safety in extreme situations.

Great tyre. Requires a little bit more air pressure than the recommended for the car.

Very reliable, both in wet and dry conditions. But after 5000km the noise level is terrible. With this price there are better choices.

High end tyre at a budget price without any compromise.

Noise level is spoiling car and wear pattern is poor. Actually took car to have new wheel bearings fitted as the pulsating drone was so bad, but no problem with car just the tyres. Very disappointed thought I'd found a good all-rounder.
