Thanks for that Jack.

If my bus is ready, I may get 4 Nokian 14" CS tires installed in
Everett WA en route to BBTB. Had considered those BFG's but read that
they weren't that great on ice/snow. (or at least not as great as one
would assume based upon how they look. They are quite gnarly) Useful
to get your impressions.

Neil.
