Winter Testimonial (again) for Hankook iPike W409s

Just mounted my iPikes for the winter today.

I can't praise their ride quality and more importantly, incredible snow traction, enough.

You simply can't go wrong with these Nokian Hakkapeliitta RSI's rip offs; they perform as well.

Yep.

With the iPike's, the ride quality is much better; low profile summer uhp tires tend to transmit every rut, pothole, ridge, etc.
