More days above 7°c tham below?

That temperature is when i understood it was beneficial to be on winter tyres. Its not all about snow and rain.

What are RainSports like in snow? Debating getting some for the front of the Yaris to replace my Proxes

Funking brilliant in my experience! Seen my megane up some hills in the snow a few years ago that people weren't even attempting!

Probably my favourite tyre!

Just bought a set of wheels and winter tyres for the M3, never really bothered previously as if it was really bad I just wouldn't drive, but I think they'll be needed this year with doing more miles too!

flol, another guy who thinks 4x4's are AMAZING in the snow.

I've never understood this, OMG IT GRIPS SO WELL IN SNOW I CAN GO QUICKER THAN EVERYONE ELSE! What until you have to stop, like everyone else?


I've got my spare 182 alloys now I've got Turini's and I'll be putting winter tyres on them!

 

[MartinR]

I would put winter tyres on the turinis

 

[Addicted]

That would then mean some spacktard has to maul over the Turini's and no doubt put the first mark into them, when I had the tyres put on originally he nearly marked them until I told him to do something differently, f**k going through that again until I have to!

At least with the 182 Wheels I don't need to worry about sliding about/kurbing/blablabla

Plus being able to change the look every now and again is nice, certainly cheaper than buying parts!

Wonder of they'd fit... Much for the 4 of them?
