Are there any tyres out there which will provide a happy medium for all seasons, without having to change the rubbers?
Obviously, as many of us have recently experienced the standard Bridgestones low profiles are cr*p in the snow/icy conditions.
And yes, I'm a lazy bugger and would prefer one set of rubbers on my baby without having to change them.
Any suggestions....for the ultimate all-in-one rubbers?

Yes there is you can get a balanced tyre between the two, there called all weather tyres

I'm told they're a bit "Jack of all trades master of none", and particularly not so hot in actual snow, but they seem to be suitable for particular locations where snow isn't a significant issue.
Or so I'm told. :smiley:

If your lazy :laugh: can't you just store your summer / winter tyres at home or a local tyre garage and get them switched over when it suits? I'm sure you can do this.

I could do this, but as-per my original post, are there any good all-in-one rubbers out there that don't affect too much performance/stability etc during any season.
After experiencing the snowy/icy winter with the original tyres, I intend to purchase winter tyres next year (despite my claims of being 'lazy'), but thought this topic might be beneficial to those who can't or do not intend to...as previous topics have usually been based around which winter tyres are best.....

The 'stones are crap in all weather :grin:

Before I have the lynch mob banging on my pretty red toosh, I am going to see how my new Michelins perform in warmer conditions. I am still going to buy summer tyres, but I'd like to test the waters a bit. Why not.
Hope 'the bloody things' (Rolfe's words) are not too noisy in the cold weather conditions they are designed for. :rolleyes:
PS: It's a pain posting with a Blackberry.
I agree 100% with Doc. The Bridgestones are pooh all year round.
