Nokians are coming through different dealers, not available at tirerack.

I put MXM4's on my Subaru. Quiet, comfortable, long-wearing tires, but less performance-oriented than the others you're considering. FWIW, I believ the Primacy MXM4 is the OE tire for the Acura RDX.

I considered the WRG2 a few years ago after being blown away by the Nokian winter tires I put on my wife's Audi. The reviews I read, mostly European, were consistently positive. I do recall one negative being relatively short tread life. In the end I elected to pass because of availability concerns. The closest dealer was over an hour away, and the tires weren't stocked, so emergency replacements would always be a few days away.
