Also
there is a tire from Finland, I can't remember the name but have seen them
on cars in Colorado and advertised in the back of EC, is H rated but I don't
have any experience with them.

Nokia is the company, Hakkapelliita (sp?) 10 is the model. Most awesomest snow tahr I've used! You will not get stuck in a Q unless you seriously high-center it..... Very agressive, directional tread and not too noisy. Seems to wear a looong time too. VERY popular for winter stages on Pro-Rally cars. An excellent and less expensive second choice is the Gislaved Frost II from Sweden, They *DO* know about snow & ice in Finland and Sweden.....
