Pete, I have to say I was motivated by your setup to change over ! I'm even getting W rated tires - there have been several times on beautiful sunny winter days where conditions permitted hitting top speed. Performance and optics are no restriction anymore - year round pleasure !



Amen!!

I checked my tires this morning - they are indeed W rated tires from Dunlop (SP Winter Sport 3D). On www.reifendirekt.at you have 2 other choices: the Continental WinterContact TS 810 S and Vredestein Wintrac xtreme. The dunlops are 328 EUR / tire, contis 371 EUR / tire and Vredesteins 241 EUR / tire....
