And when you do suffer slippery roads it certainly makes the headlines! :poke:

So I bought a 35is with all the toys to play with. :thumbsup:

I never bothered years ago but after experiencing them, they are a must have!
I’m in London. We have a few weeks of temperatures under 7 degrees and really not worth spending thousands for those few weeks.
That’s why I purchased all season tyres so between November and April I’m not pussy footing around with 500 N.m on damp cold roads, they’ll work in snow and cold frosty mornings that turn into warm spring days :wink:

Hehe as long as you still drive carefully even with the winter/all season tires :)

also winters have not really been winters the past few years, you get 5days -3 and then 5 days 15degrees to be good you would have to switch them out every week hehe :)
