Subject:      running Nokian Hakkapeliitta CS Tires all year??
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

I'd say only run 'em in the winter. I ran my Hakkapeliita CS tires last
winter, they were great. Never bothered to take them off, and now they're
really chewed up badly (I run about 50% gravel/dirt roads here, so your
mileage may vary). Went down to the Las Vegas Pic a Part two weekends ago
and found a nice set of extra rims, so now I'll be able to switch the next
set I get. The Yokohamas I run on the wife's van are so bad on ice and snow
she had to call AAA on time to give her a push!
