 Poster: A snowHead
|
I have 2 cars one a 4x4 which I always fit winter tyres to and use it if I need to go on a long trip... My other car I don't change the tyres but I have a set of chains for it in the boot....
Now after last years cold winter and the start to this years winter I'm thinking of fitting winter rubber to this as well... For the size I need the ones I would normaly buy for my 4x4 are £200 (now way i'm spending that) each... there are however some on mytyres at £160 for a full set.... are these going to be worth my while getting or do I need to fork out for my second choice £400......
Kumho KW17
205/50 R17 93V RF asymmetric
only £ 36.20
or
Marangoni Meteo HP
205/50 R17 93V XL
only £ 96.10
I have used winter tyres for years just never the ones that cheap......

Meant to say, check your profile. Volvo recommend going from 60 to 65 sidewall for winter tyres. Worth checking in case you can get 55's for cheaper

Had emergency Kumho KW17's on for a while (totally different size & car). They were fine. If really £36 each, go for it (think mytyres are going to sting you because of your address BTW)

Now starting my third winter on my Kumho ZEN KW tyres, grip reasonable in the dry, good in the wet, excellent on snow (just got them on in time for this latest lot) and wearing well. They may not be the best winter tyres around but they are plenty good enough for me. (have 215/65 x 15 on a people carrier).
