disaster.. its beeen 2 days its snowing continous and it nearly reached 50 cm in most places-except main roads- ..

in the morning, cleaned the clit (miggy must rest as its my precious )  cleaned some part of the street.. after a 40 minutes trip reached the job .. 11 am

two thirds of people doesnt bother to come job (or they cant) 

lunch time we went to rescue friends diesel megane ,as he had to leave the car in the middle of nowhere last night..

althought the road was flat -and we cleaned around it- the car couldnt move despite 2nd and 3rd gear trials..

and I must mention it had bridgestone LM30 snow tires :-?

so [smiley=thumbdown.gif] [smiley=thumbdown.gif] [smiley=thumbdown.gif] for bridgestone lm30

as for goodyear ultragrip 7+ my clit made no problem and bring me everywhere faultlessly

except the moment I decided to excavate half a meter snow with clit .. reversed into park area as fast as I could and the car climb up on a snow bed and the tires lost the touch

I called some people dig under the car and bring the clit down to earth   by that time as the gearbox was pushed my 3-4 gear were not in place.. I hardly used 1st :-?

Interesting cem 

Your certainly the person to speak to on winter tyres, quick google found a good price, although no stock

I always found Goodyears excellent, my Goodyear Eagle Ventura still had tread left after 45k, just inside edge had gone 

Think i'll make a note of these tyres, considering a set for the tunnie fleet, if we get another winter like last year, an investment in winter tyres might be needed  :-/

I also used venturas, they were quite grippy..  they can go everywhere in snow although they were summer tires..the only problem was stopping distance (on snow/ice) ..

ultragrip 7+ is really a first class snow tire.. never had a bad surprise with it..  the the other snow tire models of goodyear nowhere near it  (except UG500 which is not in production)

There is another way.....

                                                   ....buy some skis 

Sorry Cem, I am sorry you are stuck, hope it will clear up soon, which it should thanks to global warming.

I only think of sun when I think of Turkey. I didn't think it could snow that much!  :-/

Today sun showing its head and it started to melt but when it goes down will freeze again and will cause many accidents :-/
