The Nokian Snowproof 1 is designed for drivers who expect unfailing reliability from their winter tire. With a tread optimized for exceptional grip on snow and increased stability, the Snowproof 1 is an asset for winter safety. Its deep grooves and directional sipes work together to provide superior traction and braking on slippery surfaces. The advanced rubber compound stays flexible even at low temperatures, ensuring consistent performance throughout the cold season. This tire is a reliable solution for those who want to maintain control of their vehicle in all winter conditions.
The braking elements integrated into the tread blocks promote better grip during acceleration and braking phases. The central section is structured around a continuous, rigid rib, ensuring high stability and precise steering response. The tread blocks with thick sipes, connected to this central rib, help improve traction and braking efficiency. Multi-shaped snow claws, positioned between the blocks and at the shoulders, provide balanced grip on ice and snow.
The Snowproof 1 maintains a consistent level of grip across a wide temperature range, from mild winters to the harshest conditions. The Alpine Grip rubber compound is developed to meet the demands of cold and challenging winter environments, while ensuring effective performance when temperatures are milder. This design helps maintain safe and stable handling in the face of changing winter weather conditions.
The Nokian Snowproof 1 is fitted with a driving safety indicator, making it easy to monitor wear. The visible markings on the tread show the remaining depth in millimetres and gradually disappear as the tyre wears. To maintain a level of safety suitable for winter driving, a tread depth between 4 and 5 millimetres is recommended. The snowflake pictogram remains visible down to this 4-millimetre threshold. When this symbol is no longer visible, replacing the winter tyres is recommended in order to maintain optimum performance.
Designed to tackle winter conditions, this tyre combines high grip on snow, slush and wet roads with stable, predictable handling. The combination of tread pattern design, specific sipes and the rubber compound contributes to safe, comfortable driving. The tread promotes snow evacuation between the tyre and the road, while the optimised sipes enhance grip under braking and when cornering.
