Any thoughts/experience good or bad on Goodyear Vector 4season tyres anyone?
Thanks in advance.

Mine were great, fine in normal conditions, brilliant in the snow, and lasted for over 40k miles. Slight tendency to squeal on tight roundabouts.

Their replacements - CrossClimates - are also fine. They are quieter (especially on roundabouts!), and OK on mud, but they've not yet been tested in the snow.

Those are fitted as standard by Fiat to the Cross models - so should be good!

Vector 4 Seasons Gen 2 better for fuel economy and wet braking. Quiet too. With my Panda TA 4x4 Goodyear Ultragrip 9 were best winter tyres I could get. Lot better in summer than I imagined.

Agreed - the 4 Seasons are very good tyres - just changed a pair after about 38000 miles, when they'd started to follow the lorry grooves in the slow lane - not quite whitelining but similar.

Thanks for the replies, about ready to change the original Duragrips, and Kwik fit have the 4seasons on special offer at £48 plus 10% off if you buy two or more, that's works out at about £43 each, cheaper than budget tyres!!

Get them bought quick then. Could prove useful in 2 months time.

Bridgestone weather control are cheeper at around 83 fitted which is what I'll probably get when the rear wear down a bit more currently just over 3mm

That's a great price for a quality tyre.

Had a look there myself that's just for the tyre fitting the valve balancing and disposal of your old tyre's are extra on top of the price for the tyre's shown

Nope, just this minute ordered 4 tyres, wheel balancing, valves, tyre disposal + free wheel alignment check had to enter a supplied code to obtain 10% discount total price paid on card was £179.
Wil be fitted on Thursday.
