            Does it get below 7C for long periods of time?

                  Winter? What's that? All we ever seem to get in eastern England is an extended autumn.

                    Nokians on 16 inch wheels, so you can have a higher profile. Saves the salt ruining the alloys, better over the pot holes that appear every winter, I am putting wear on a cheaper set of tyres, often drive late nights/ early mornings when icy, ride is less hard!

                    Good quality tyres too.

                        I know you were badly caught out by the weather that time Chris, but it's a v rare occurence ! Anyway, I don't want to derail the topic, if owners want to buy winter wheels/tyres good for them.

                        Slightly off topic now - have you got your new car yet ?
