Looks like a good product. I didn't look up all-weather ones - too used to the seasonal-roulette concept and generally, products that try to be all things to all needs end up compromising so much that it makes them mediocre overall. But it looks like Nokian gets good reviews like this one at Consumer Reports, plus as a user where you get harsh winters, I'd be inclined to believe you about them. What kind of mileage do you get out of them?

It all depends on the tread depth, if its more than 3/32 different they recommend you replace all the tires. Its rare that you have to replace on tire. I never had to all the years I have been driving. If your tires get slashed they usually do one side. Insurance will sometimes cover all tires if they need to be replaced so it does not damage your differential. Some times they will not cover it.

They have been on my car for 10 years, I don't drive it much anymore, I put about 2000 KM on it a year, my tires are about 50% worn. Just guessing I have not gauged them. I have 46,000 KM on the car.

I will not buy anything but Nokian all weather tires.

Does anyone have a security camera setup or know anything about them?

I think this video is a good tutorial. Best to investigate the tech against your needs first before plunking down any cash.

I use baking soda a lot, but some of them are very good ideas.
