Northern Indiana provides
challenging winter conditions due to frigid northwest winds & snowfall
averaging 72 inches a year, but we wanted more & went across the
Atlantic to experience it.
In 2009, members of our test team went to one of the areas frequented
by many of the European vehicle & tire manufacturers for extreme
winter testing. Up near the Arctic Circle in Arvidsjaur & Jokkmokk,
Sweden, short days & long cold nights allowed us to evaluate & compare
a large number of existing & new winter tires in a matter of a few
days. |
