Nokian Tyres Holds Bracket-Style Pothole Challenge – Tire Review

Which state or province has the worst roads in North America? Nokian Tyres invites drivers to vote, then enter for a chance to win a free set of tires backed by the company’s Pothole Protection program. Between March 13 and April 14, the company is hosting a bracket-style competition between notoriously rugged states and provinces.

After voting on Nokian Tyres’ social media channels, drivers can make their case and submit photographic evidence at NokianTires.com/Potholes. Doing so will enter eligible residents of the United States and Canada to win a set of the Nokian Tyres One tire, which is reinforced with durable Aramid fibers.
Each week, Nokian Tyres will host a round of polls on its social media channels: @NokianTyresNA on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. First-round matchups include:
