Because I'm not the quartermaster? I was just thinking of LE tires recently, especially those on rural RCMP vehicles and how much more important premium traction is when other emergency services are far away. They should be getting the best winter tires available, cost be damned. I'd sooner see them on Nokian's than some budget winter tires form China. When they have to be out in the worst weather to help those who probably should have stayed home (the perpetually unprepared in both equipment and driving skill) they should have excellent tires.

As for what LE chooses I know you're in Montana, but what do Alaska Statey's run on their buggies? One might rationalize that they might opt for something a bit better.
