I was turned off the WRG4 by all of the reports on Reddit and YouTube of them wearing out fast/cracking, even though they were apparently great. I read the performance drops off a cliff once you reach a certain percentage of threadwear(which comes fast due to how soft they are). The general concensous when I researched tires recently is that people loved them, but they wore down faster than the other all-weathers(which already wear faster).

They are also a fairly low rated all weather by consumer reports, because they do poorly in non-winter tests compared to other all-weathers. Other all-weathers like the cross climate 2 and Weatherready were much better all-rounders, with the crossclimate 2 topping the charts. It would probably make more sense to just a winter tire at that point if you are looking at the Nokian WRG4 unless you have money to spend on tires to keep them at their peak performance.

For example, the WRG4 received a 2/5(Fair) for wet braking when new. The crossclimate 2 received a 4/5(Very Good).
