nokian tire review gets a :yay:
we got a pretty good amount of snow so I decided to go test out the new Nokian Hek. 2s that I had purchased....holy hell, it is like there isnt even snow on the ground. If any of you that need snow tires dont have them, these are the sweeet...:rant:
cliff: I had a blast with my new tires in the snow they are sweet.

Yeah I purchased my Hakka 2s December 2003. And I was the same way 
I might get to use them tonight if we get some snow today.
I actually did some snow racing with the Hakka 2s in January and February Fun!

And the Blizzaks are not that bad. People have to realize that you need OEM pressures or a bit higher for snow tires. Alot of people put air in them in November/December and it gets much colder and air pressures drop.
