So, to get the conversation going, anyone got comparative experience
driving in icy snow w/ both Hakkas & Hankook tires?
As usual,
YMMV,
Mr. BZ-every 37 years you gotta do this.

Tom, welcome to age 40!
That short trip just added three years to your life�. :-)

Glad to hear the BZman and pooch Carl arrived safe and sill crazy.
With the wheels, rubber side down and not on a flat deck Tow Truck.
Whoa, that sounded like a great trip!

Hakki CQ snow tires turn the 2wd Vanagon into a snow-plow in the dry stuff.
Sniped so, wear pretty fast on dry hot roads is my only dis.

Enjoy Maine. I waited until I turned 58 before visiting.

On rock, about as far from Rocky Maine as one can get in N.A..
