No doubt the Swedish driving conditions were an influence, and I agree... fat tires in the snow are very counterproductive, no matter how many wheels are being driven. :)

But that move to smaller tires on the 164E's really made no sense at all. Those puppies had to be getting awfully close to designed load limits, particularly on the back of an "E" with four up and some luggage.
