With the things I read, I would go with 4 super softs + 2 (studded) snow tyres.
SS1 on 4x SS, SS2 on crossed SS and studs

Tanak does sound confident and happy with the car, saying it feels strong and good on the tests. However Loeb has said similar in the last and the speed hasn't been there on the tarmac so we will see.
so im not the only one seeing it...i havent seen him so happy since, well...i cant even recall
since the first test with Hyundai or around that time in every interview to estonian media or some other footage the guy just cant hide his smile. If its that the environment is in Hyundai much better, or the car is actually better than he thought, or it finally has hit him that he is a WRC champ, i dont know. He seems to be getting on very well with Adamo though.
We will be much smarter Sunday afternoon.
Even more interesting, extract from an interview (translated in French):
Neuville: There are a few changes on the car like the central exhaust
Interviewer: No, the cars had their exhausts on the right in shakedown
Neuville: No no. On which cars?
Interviewer: On all tree
Neuville: No, that would suprise me. Normally they are in the middle I think. I 've seen it.
Interviewer: You will see
Neuville: Maybe just on 1 car than?
Suprising that he doesn't even know :p :p
They used the central exhaust setup and nothing else during both sets of tests with a month between them.
Therefor homologation issues is imo the only option out of those listed that makes sense.
