    someone must have photoshopped the tyre in the picture…

  • It is actually a genuine Nokia Tyre. Nokia was in the 80’s a multiheaded monster with many different business areas… then they concentrated on the mobile phones and rest is history.

    Nokia sold the tyre manfacturing in 1988 and after that the tyres were called Nokian.
