I had P3000s on our Toyota for a while. They were okay but "sang" on smooth
road - an odd flying saucer sound.

Sorry. Stupid me.
OK, your tire size is 215-65/16? Hmmmmm....my 02 is a 225-60/16...I
wonder why they changed that....
Anyway, Nokian's web site confirms that that's the size--and that they
do make a WR in that size:
http://tinyurl.com/rgxfr
I have to say, I bought mine for my Lexus because I liked the idea of an
all-season tire that earned the winter snowflake designation. Nokian
knows winter tires.
Apparently, they also know all-season tires, because these things are
stunningly capably in all conditions and stunningly quiet at all times.
I have about 20K miles on mine, and they're wearing very, very well.
And not once have I ever felt unsure about them, even driving to
Cleveland through a snowstorm in late December.
As their blurb says:
"Only four-season family of tires that carries the Severe Service Emblem
exceeding new government snow condition regulations"
I don't think that's just hot air.
(A.W.P. stands for "all weather passenger")
I love my Nokian WR. The 02 Ody is finally ready for new shoes, and
that's going to be my choice.
