you will also need to have a minimum thread depth across the entire surface of 3mm!
As much as this may sound wild for some - I personally appreciate what Swedish government has done for safety regulation enforcement. This is truly great - Way to go !

p.s. you should see some of our goons rolling in snow-piles on summer run-flats ... on highways
edit: then again, you have snow for like what 6-9 months in a year ? ))
Yeah, it's nice that we have rules for stuff like this. Some good old Swedish safety precautions i guess. but then again, we did invent the 3-point seatbelt

I live in the very south of Sweden, not so much this winter!


I can imagine... we actually have idiots here aswell that ignore the winter tire laws and then crash when it gets slippery!

Snow just came in for the first time last week, so meteorologically speaking we have had autumn here since September

But in the northern parts there's a lot of snow!
