The Tuulilasi test has some interesting comparisons in it, such as a 205/55R16 vs a 225/45R17, both sizes in a Nokian R2. The extra 20mm of section width does translate into better ice traction.
And their overall ranking of winter tire performance is a lot different than that from Test World (who does the testing for Tekniikan Maailma, NAF, Aftonbladet, etc):
1. Continental ContiViking Contact 6
1. Nokian HKPL R2
3. Nokian HKPL R2 225/45/17
3. Michelin X-ice Xi3
5. Goodyear Ultra Grip Ice 2
6. Vredestein Nordtrac 2
7. Pirelli Ice Control Winter
Nebroch, what is the Finnish phrase for "slush planing test" ?
