These tires are for, in my case winter only.
I got these tires for my 2-WD truck for the winter, and I couldn't be happier with them. All the grip i need in our northern cold winters in Vermont! I did order them at the time, with studs and had no problems last winter. I'd recommend them to others weather 2 or 4 WD.

Very Aggressive driver, 1999 Honda CRV, Daily driver ~50 miles per day
Been using these for a few months in Fargo, ND.
The tires are excellent in snow and on icy roads. They really bite into the ice and are fantastic for starting and stopping on dry-icy surfaces. I could easily see these saving you from rear-ending someone on an unexpected icy patch or preventing a spin out on the interstate. If it gets slushy or very wet, they retain good performance but still not as grippy on wet roads as an all-season tire.
If it's dry and not icy, they are not great and will let go of the road long before a non-studded snow tire so beware if you like to drive your vehicle at the mechanical limit.
Road noise was much less than I had guessed it would be and shouldn't be the thing that stops you from choosing studded tires.
They seem to be wearing very nicely and after about 2500 miles, the tread still looks like-new and the studs are still sharp and pronounced.
This is a great tire which I would recommend for anyone who lives in areas where very icy conditions are common. If you get a lot of snow but not a lot of ice, maybe try the non-studded variant.
Designed for use on CUVs, SUVs, and light trucks, Nokian's Nordman 7 SUV Studded is a studded winter tire that offers drivers consistent grip on slushy and snowy roads.
Features & Benefits
Winter tread design
Black sidewall
Pinned with studs to enhance traction on ice, slush, and snow covered roads
Three Peak Mountain Snowflake symbol means this tire is certified to perform in severe snow conditions
Winter weather often brings ice, slush, and snow with it, and these elements can make driving difficult. Fortunately, winter tires are designed to remain flexible in lower temperatures so that drivers receive consistent grip, and the Nordman 7 SUV Studded from Nokian does just that for drivers of CUVs, SUVs, and light trucks. A slush edge removes slush and snow from the tire's contact patch to reduce the risk of slushplaning, and the Nordman 7 SUV Studded's rubber compound enhances grip in ice and snow. The Nordman 7 SUV Studded is pinned with studs to enhance traction, and the tire is Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certified thanks to its ability to perform in severe snow conditions.
