Nokian zLine A/S SUV Reviews

I just had the zLine A/S SUV installed on my 2017 Kia Sorento EX AWD V6 on Apr 21, 2020. This was my first time ever purchasing tires online and the process was way too easy. The price was unbeatable compared to the big tire stores. The auto repair shop where I chose installation from SimpleTire's website handled everything to a tee. I dropped my car off and they installed the tires in an hour. No paperwork to sign. It was basically in and out of the shop. Now onto the tires. So I have only driven about 400 miles on them so far and they feel really damn good. They feel a lot better than my OEM Kumhos that came with my Sorento. For the record, I never had any issues with the Kumhos either. But these zLines are super grippy. Doing 85mph on the freeway and I can't even hear them. They are smooth as silk to drive on. Driving over bumps or potholes aren't bonejarring at all. These tires just absorb it really well. I finally got to take them out during a pretty good down pour of rain and they cut through the rain like a knife through melted butter. I wasn't too familiar with Nokian tires and did a ton a research before pulling the trigger. I'm so glad that I went with this tire. The installer has them all on 36psi. The installer came out and told me they were one of the easiest tires to mount and balance. I may do a follow up review when I get a couple of thousand miles on them after they're truly broke in. I didn't do a review on treadlife or snow driving. But they should be GTG. But I think I finally found my place to shop for tires in the future. SimpleTire's customer service was excellent to deal with as well.

I only have these installed for 1,500 miles but so far have been very happy with the handling. THey keep the road very well and there is no additional noise. These are my second Nokian tires (I also have winter Hakapettulas that are excellent), and I need to say they give me as much as Michelins and Continentals that I replaced for half of their price.

Superb Tires. I'm biased! I run the ALL WEATHER WX3's on my MB 4Matic; eNtyres on my son's Audi Avant. My daughter's Tribeca was in need of CUV Replacements. The Z-Lines were /are perfect. Their grab & release and quietness are value added!

Excellent tire... Quietest and most responsive tire I've had on my Touareg compared to Goodyear, Dunlop, and Continentals. Love them. Simple Tire is great also! Good prices, fast shipping and great customer service

Put these on a BMW 2013 X5 with 18 inch wheels. They replaced factory Bridgestone run flats. Aside from the fact they are much more affordable, the ride quality of this non run flat tire is superior, and both wet and dry handling are superb. I have put on about 6000 miles since they were mounted, I am expecting based on wear to date, a useful life of around 40,000 miles. I like the fact that they are a UHP tire, so high speed long distance runs are what they are designed for. For your information, these tires were built in Nokian's Russia tire factory.

Recently purchased 2 for my rear wheel drive Mercedes ML. Quiet, grip better and were a great price. Seem like a superior replacement to the tires that were being used.

Excellent tire. Very smooth and gives better mpg. Takes 1000 miles to break in.

Excellent tire, overall. It handles perfectly in dry or wet weather. Snow traction is good, though of course not up to that of a tire with the snowflake symbol. Being UHP, the tires are a bit stiff, so Instead of using 38 psi in the front and 46 psi in the rear (as recommended on my Porsche's door panel), I've lowered the pressure to 36 psi in the front and 44 psi in the rear--this way, the tires are quite comfortable. The only other negative is that there's no tread life warranty, but I do expect these tires to last 40000+ miles.
