OOOOOOH! Nokian H!

Yummy.

Those are the babies that recently won a big Euro tire test. Not as LRR as the energy savers but won on most other points. Wet traction, aquaplaning resistance, dry traction etc. etc. All that and non toxic oils.

I'm also looking at getting those as my summer tires. I have the WRg2 (51psi max sidewall) and they are great.

Nokian also just came out with a new LRR all season called the eNTYRE. Only in 15+ inches so far though.
