Hi guys,
I live in Scotland and drive a TD5 110. I didnt have it last winter but lived next to a chap with a very aggressive set of offroad tyres, albeit on an L200, who made a tidy living towing people about the place, especially those arrogant types who thought a foot to the floor in their X5 would give them a hope in hell's chance.
So now its my chance to be the saviour of scottish motorists, but need some advice on snow tyres. I have read through the forum 'debates' on the subject, but for a relative new comer, what tyres do people rate the most? I understand thinner is better for best pressure over a smaller area, and how the more nobbly the tyre, the more rolling resistance, noise levels etc.
It would also be good to get tyres with rims, so I can change them myself.
Any advice or links to sites would be great.
Thanks guys
Adam
