In this comparison, we are comparing a tyre from a manufacturer from Finland (
Nokian) against a tyre from a manufacturer from Taiwan (
Maxxis). Generally,
Maxxis allround tyres are slightly better rated (65%) than
Nokian (63%). The first tyre test of Nokian WeatherProof was done in 2015, compared to 2019 when was the Maxxis Premitra AS AP3 first tested. Important for this comparison is also the
Autobild 2020 205/55 R16 test, where both the
WeatherProof and the
Premitra AS AP3 were tested. See more mutual tests below. If you wonder where the tyres in question are made, the
WeatherProof is made in Finland and
Premitra AS AP3 is made in China.
