WR? Re: Nokian Group Buy

[Kneale Brownson]

The RSI is a replacement for the Q.  I've driven the last couple winters on
a set of Qs and it's the best all-around traction I've had with an Audi
quattro.  I drive on packed snow/ice or slush several inches deep half the
time in the winter.  The rest is on dry roads.  I have a 120-mile
round-trip commute for about 100 winter days.   I don't know how this
applies to whatever vehicle you're trying to get tires for, however.
