OT: Nokians

[wburg18 at hotmail.com (Peter Rochus)]

I bought my winters from a Tire Craft across the street from work(London).  I paid 105 bucks a tire (mounted and filled with nitrogen) for Continental ContiViking 3s (195/55/R15) for my 94 Golf.  I've read lots of good things about them, so I'll see how good they are.
