So with scotland and yorkshire having snow i can understand them having winters on already....

But east Midlands its still dancing from single figures to low teens....

Never averaging around the 7degrees alot...

Im holding off just yet.... as im waiting for mrs new rubber to arrive

Swapping over this weekend, was going to do it last weekend, but, somewhat ironically, it was too cold to be working on cars!

Yep they're on

Nah, I survived last winter with standard tyres, it'll be reet

No winter tyres for me yet. Believe it or not, there's really not a lot of snow on the main roads in my neighbourhood, its the ice that's the killer. As a care worker in the early mornings tackling wee streets & cul de sacs that see little sun or traffick can be interesting in the handling department. The gentlest slope in icy conditions can just grind you to a standstill without the proper winter tyres. Next couple of months should see me changing on to my winter boots.

Winter tyres went on last week. Not so much for snow, but for better grip and brake performance in the wet.
35 mile commute to and from work, and notoriously wet highways since "silent asphalt" was introduced.

Mine are still say on my tyre tree waiting...

Just waiting for my mrs tyres to arrive from europe before i can see about getting them fitted to rims....

A fun afternoon somewhere in store.....

14c here at the moment, tropical for here, so no winter boots for some time.

For those of us who are retired, it seems to be less of a problem.....my working day starts at 10 am and ends at 3 pm ! And, if it’s too much trouble, then I will order from t’internet !

Still in the shed at the moment.

Was going to swap them yesterday but the forecast for the week is ok for the Lakes.

Mebbeh next weekend.

The winter wheels/Ultragrips will be going onto the Panda next week, the 500C is sat on them at the moment while the alloys have been away for powdercoating (collected yesterday, look great, dark anthracite)

12c/13c up here at the moment, practically T shirt weather for this neck of the woods, no wind to speak of either & my winter wheels & tyres remain in my garage.

Just bought Summer tyres for my Mito so it'll probably snow now.

I've got the 18" wheels on mine, with summer tyres on I had no issues in the snow earlier this year (last year, depending on when you read this). That A on the DNA system is pretty handy

nope just trying to boost the use of ff classifieds people forget its there and keep using other sites instead

That's handy to know.

I've just fitted a set of all year General tyres to the 100HP. All I need now is new track rods so I can get the tracking sorted.
