Nokian reinforces its reputation with the Snowproof 2 SUV, a premium winter tire for SUVs. This tire is designed to provide exceptional safety and performance in all winter conditions. It features a unique tread pattern that ensures excellent grip on snow and reduces the risk of aquaplaning. The zigzag sipes and robust rubber blocks enhance traction and handling, while the winter-specific rubber compound guarantees optimal performance even in extreme cold. With the Snowproof 2 SUV, Nokian offers a comfortable and controlled driving experience, making this tire a preferred choice for demanding SUV drivers.
The Nokian Tyres Snowproof 2 is fitted with a Driving Safety Indicator (DSI), making it easy to monitor tyre wear. This indicator shows the remaining tread depth in millimetres, with numbers that gradually disappear as the tyre wears.
To maintain a level of safety suited to winter conditions, a tread depth between 4 and 5 millimetres is recommended. The snowflake pictogram remains visible down to 4 millimetres. When this symbol is no longer visible, replacing the tyres with new winter tyres is recommended to maintain optimum safety.
To offer a high level of comfort and safety, the tread is structured into two distinct zones. The Dual Zone Safety concept combines a Grip Zone dedicated to grip in winter conditions and a Handling Zone designed to ensure vehicle control and stability.
The Hydroflow Grooves grooves actively contribute to safety by limiting the risk of aquaplaning. They promote the rapid evacuation of water and slush between the tyre and the road, ensuring more consistent contact with the road.
The Alpine Grip 2.0 compound is designed to tackle harsh winter conditions and low temperatures, while maintaining effective performance when the weather becomes milder. Its formulation ensures a reliable response to temperature variations, thanks to flexibility and grip maintained across a wide temperature range.
Its high silica content improves grip on wet roads, while optimised rolling resistance contributes to better energy efficiency and a reduction in pollutant emissions.
SilentDrive™ technology is developed to improve acoustic comfort while taking environmental challenges into account. It is based on integrating a layer of acoustic foam applied to the inner wall of the tyre.
This foam absorbs resonances generated in the air cavity, which significantly reduces the noise level perceived inside the vehicle and provides a quieter drive. SilentDrive™ technology is available on certain sizes dedicated to SUV tyres.
The Alpine Sense Grip concept forms the common foundation of Snowproof tyres. It combines strong grip performance with stable and predictable road handling, suited to all situations encountered in winter. This approach is based on the interaction between a specific tread pattern design, optimised sipes and a dedicated rubber compound, to ensure driving that is both safe and comfortable.
The tread pattern promotes efficient evacuation of snow and slush between the tyre and the road surface, while the 3D sipes contribute to high grip under braking and when cornering, enhancing vehicle control on winter roads.
The Nokian Tyres Snowproof 2 SUV features sidewalls incorporating aramid fibres, designed to improve the tyre’s robustness in demanding driving conditions. This technology uses a particularly strong synthetic material, able to better withstand impacts and limit cuts that could damage the tyre.
This enhanced protection helps reduce the risk of accidental damage, which is often costly, while preserving the tyre’s integrity on difficult roads.

Very good tyres in deep snow, even when wet, and on ice.
I recommend it with confidence!
Great, everything is perfect.
Good purchase, quiet while driving, good grip as well.
Very good tyres.
So far, everything is perfect. Not yet tested in the rain or on snow. They are quiet and supple… they don’t collapse in corners.
Perfect.
Excellent tyre, I’m using it on roads and motorways. On dry roads it has excellent grip, and also in the wet. I haven’t tried it on snowy surfaces.
Very good, very eye-catching
Excellent tyre, low noise when driving faster on the motorway, around 160 km/h; the only drawback is the steering response, especially when cornering.
