I got a set of the Hakka’s last year, after sliding down my sister’s driveway in the Boulder foothills. I had TerrainContacts and very nearly went off the edge! Since then, I’ve been very impressed with the Hakka’s going over the mountain passes out here, Loveland Pass (they closed it behind us during a rather awful blizzard last year) and Rabbit Ears Pass.
I have the r3’s. I really like the tire, but now that I live in Steamboat Springs, I’m thinking I want something studded.
Hi all, I’ve had the Conti TereainContact ATs for a week now... it rained hard over the week and I experienced something concerning in hard rain. The front end of the car felt loose, at the edge of hydroplaning. I wasn’t going fast just around town driving 45mph.
Any of you got the same experience? With the old tires I replaced I never felt that. Thanks
Driving back from Big Sky last year when all roads south but I-15 were closed, I drove through Monida Pass 10 minutes before they closed it. I have driven in blizzards and snow all my life, but that sh*t was crazy. Semi's blown over, zero visibility, ice and drifting snow on the road. I actually got blown sideways from one lane to another because of the ice and 80+ mph cross winds. (all that was on the mountain snowflake rated KO2s and that was the last straw)
Doing a bunch of driving this season, first off to Steamboat Springs. Looks like you all have had a good October snowfall.
(There is too much high speed, dry driving during the winter in Utah for me to get studded tires. The R3's will have to do.)
I will say we were one of the few vehicles that didn’t slide off the road going over Loveland Pass...
