(The severe service designation) I know of the Nokian WRG3, is there any good competition to these tires from other makes?
I went to UrbanX in the NE (not far off McKnight and 40th) and they told me that Continental has a good set of all seasons (My car is running All season Nokians from the previous owner). Kal Tire apparently is the only retailer in Canada which can sell Nokians and are not the best bang for buck due to lack of competition. "Great tires, but not good value tires" per guy I spoke with. He mentioned a few others and directly compared it to one other brand, but the Continentals stuck out to me as he said it was slightly better in winter whereas the other was slightly comfier in summer. You can probably give them a call and they can quote you over the phone. No pressure sales, lots of good info. Good guys to ask questions.
