Nokia Hakkapeliitta 1's

Anyone know where i can get these tires? i called discount tire and tires plus here in MN and they told me they can only get the nokia hakka Q's? and at 130$ a tire thats a bit spendy. They didn't have the Nokia Hakkapeliitta 1's and didn't even know what they were. These seems to be the best tires winter tires in comparison to the blizzaks. Any suggestions?

I thought it was 'nokian', as 'nokia' is a cellphone manufacturer.

The Nokian Hakkapeliitta 1 is a studded tire - not everywhere lets you use those.

I have blizzaks on my winter beater and swear by them. They're fantabulous! In addition, they don't require studs so they handle on dry roads when the ice clears.

BAH! Winter tires are for the weak and feeble minded! All I need are four frozen all-season pucks and I'm good to go.

In all seriousness, any winter tire will be immeasureably better than all-seasons, so I wouldn't worry too much about one brand or another.
