Thank you. I was looking at Nokian too. Plus Continental VikingContact7s. Really, I was looking at any and trying to figure out if they made sense for someone in a suburban area. I think I'm going to give it a try for the first time.

Yes, the deal I can receive on them is pretty good so that is what I'm leaning towards. But my local tire shop is leaps and bounds ahead of Costco and I was toying with the idea of buying some other brand and having them install it instead.
