[Rhyso]

If its only to get you out of a pickle then try these

Tried them on the Aldi this morning and they do a great job on the snow 

You spending again? 

Actually bought them about a month ago

All the info you need

Got me out of where I live which is currently covered in 12 inches of snow.  You do slip a little bit but there was no drama when pulling off.  No TC light (left it on as a test) no wheelspin etc 

As a get you out of trouble device they are great IMO.  I'll most likely get a proper set of winter tyres next year but as a stop gap these are ideal as you can wash them, fold them up and leave them in the boot

Are you sure they aren't just a pair of your old tights there Rhyso

No they're my mum's actually 

I looked at getting winter tyres but after spending out on the car I had little left in the funds for a 2nd set of wheels and tyres 

Only read good things about the Nokian's but then they are a Swedish / Norwegian / Finnish company?? So you'd hope that they'd be able to design a winter tyre

Don't blame you.  I had to leave the car in just off the main road in front of my street as I couldn't get up the hill (hadn't fitted the snow socks at the time) and I ended up sliding back down..........

Them and the idiots who think they are invincible in their 4x4's so sit 2 inches off your bumper

They are made in Finland Thyso only put a pair on the front due to funds but I'll get two more for next year on the Golf the front is the most important anyway. They make a hell of a diffference on the grip in this white stuff

I bought a cheap set of chains a few months back for £30 off Ebay, may never use them but they are in the boot for emergencies.
