Nokian Dealer Told Me There's A Severe Shortage of Snow Tires In U.S. Due To Canada
 

I was at my local Nokian Dealer to get a set of 4 WR GT3 tires for a family member when the service manager told me that there's a severe shortage this year of ALL snow tires in the U.S. as manufacturers have chosen to ship a much greater % of dedicated snow tires to Canada this year.

If you need dedicated snow tires, you had better hurry your ass off.

I'm glad I bought my Hankook iPike W409's when I did (they rock; much better than the Icebears - much more aggressive tread).

Yes, because of global warming we're running out of snow for our igloos, so we're substituting winter tires instead.

Damn hoser. ;)

It is because of a new Canadian law requiring snow tires on all cars this winter? Sounds like a pita law.

Yeah, I bought ten sets of snow tires to replace my igloos roof over the summer.. Damn global warming.

That law was only passed for the province of Quebec.

Because Quebecois kept running into things in the winter.

Quebec is still part of Canada???

Quebec is still part of Canada???

Depends who you ask.....
