lol no I just thought someone on here advised that I needed the same speed rating as the summer tyres as indicated on my door shut label There are loads of H rated tyres that I could go for if I knew I could legitimately

Too right - where was that mate?

Do I really have to get V speed-rated tyres, the same as summers? - what does everybody else do? I'm sure my outback's tyre label on the door shut showed a much lower speed-rated tyre for winters

250 is nice though......my JDM auto is reputed to have come out of the factory with that.....would love to know what it is actually running though....one day

It's your choice ultimately mate. We can only offer you some friendly advice. You could find an example that's trouble free forever, or something that rips the heart out of your wallet. I debated the diesel scooby route a while back and decided it just wasn't worth the risk.

Can't put a price on mechanical reliability is the thing mate...regardless of the badge. They just haven't cracked diesel in the way they have petrol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hello fella; just down the road from me [emoji106] I'm going to take mine to gilesgate in Hexham. Heard good things about them. There are a few independents around our way. Think there is one in ouston too. All personal preference really Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yep...got my eyes on some; just waiting for payday to come around and hopefully they will still be there Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Could always pick up a part worn pair on the bay. I'm seriously considering sourcing a hardly used set of rubber from there...bargains to be had Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Booked in for under seal on 29th [emoji106] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

General consensus is that a 2 wheel drive car with winter tyres on will perform better than an AWD car with summer tyres on in winter conditions. It's all personal choice at the end of the day like you say, but I know what I'd prefer to be on, given the choice.

To get from a to b, no. To stop quicker and have more control when driving on ice, snow, slush then I'd suggest yes Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Is there any reason why I couldn't mount run flat winter tyres to my standard oem new age alloys? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mine are fixed with self tappers so will be giving kerbs a wide berth [emoji14] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ta fella haha yeah already on my mind

I hadn't, no - thank you Prices are no better though unfortunately

Cheers@donnylad I'm very happy with how it's looking now [emoji3] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Think I'm going to get one of those ice hockey puck type rubber pads with a channel cut out for future and just jack the front corners at the scissor jack points with my trolley jack using that Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
