Got my Winter Tyres...............
« on: 08 October 2014, 21:44:18 »
Well I have them, 2 for the front, currently in the boot. I had a chat with my local Indi as my front tyres are low and need replacing, decided to buy a couple of 'cheapish' winter tyres to replace them. It will be interesting to see how they are............ :y :y

As TB would say.... Stupid boy pike!

If you must only fit two. Fit them to the drive wheels.

What is all this talk about winter tyres?.... :P :P :P :P

For generations we we have driven on all-year-round tyres in this country.
Surely 'winter tyres' are no more than a passing fad.

Less than five years ago nobody spoke about changing from summer to winter tyres.

Too much hassle....too expensive.

Why bother?  ;) ;D ;D
