How many have more than one set of wheels/tyres?

[gadgetman]

See poll

[cheezemonkhai]

I have the tyres on the car (winters) plus a couple of summer tyres that will go on with 2 new ones come the summer.

[wilsonian]

Only reason why I have more than one set is because I haven't arranged to sell my OEM 16" vRS wheels yet... :(

[dan_the_v8man]

I've just bought a set of 16" winter wheels and im after another set of summer wheels, possibly stick some track tyres on them

[MEDIX999]

I have a set of four Toyo T1R's on the car for general use and a cheap and nasty set of Nankangs NS2's becuase I was given them...

I have 2 sets,

One set of 16" OEM Octy Elegance alloys with 2 good and 2 illegal tyres, currently in the back garden stacked one on top of the other.

One set of 18" RS6 Replica alloys with el cheapo Capitol brand tyres currently on the car.

No problems getting around in the ice/snow on the cheapo wide low profile tyres, maybe its my driving technique having passed my driving test in 1985 when we had lots of snow every winter.

[swedishskoda]

summer and winter sets, both for my Felly and SWMBO's Octy. All sets with standard steel rims and Nordman rubber (Nokians low budget brand), winter sets studded M+S

Summer and winter alloys and tyres!

[No Waiting]

If you've got a set for winter and another set for summer, do you also therefore have two spares that you also swap?

[PastyBoy]

4x OEM 16" Octavia VRS Spiders with Kuhmo Ecsta KU31's for everyday use

4 x OEM 16" Fabia VRS alloys with now bald or very near bald budget tyres for track use

No :p

Theoretically Swedish road regulations demand this (same type on all four wheels) , but there's an exception for 'temporary use after damage/puncture'. Which also covers the use of those terrible 'toy spares' that were so popular a few yrs ago.

I have one set, the OEM Furby ones, with GY GSD3s and Toyo T1-Rs. I want another pair or set of wheels due to how hopeless these are in snow.

My dad has another set for his Scooby with very warn Pirelli winter tyres. He is wanting to replace them with Vred Quatrac 3s or Nokians. He is running Vred Sportrac 3 on his OEM Gold Speedline 15" wheels.

[jaymd]

I have cut down lately as i was running out of room.

Currently have

Stanard 17" Spiders Mint Vredesteins

Speedlines 17" White Conti's

Pro Race 1.2 17" Gloss Black with Avon's Track summer wheels.

Car has 2 spiders on the front and 2 pro race wheels on the back.

[Babs]

17" Longbeach alloys on car, 15" BBS OEM VR6 wheels in garage

[VWD]

Only those on car -never felt the need for any other than Town & Country on the rear of RWD ancients.

[pip_vrs]

I've sold a few sets so i only have 4 atm. Fabia vrs, 16" steels 17" tt comps and a random set i bought for tires.

I also have about 20 tires in th egarden. i've had about 15 sets on my old polo

[ric04vrs]

i did have 2 sets, for road and track, but sold 3 wheels, and kept one for an alloy spare

[yegnold]

I've got a total of 12 wheels for my fabia, all the standard alloys except 1 spare steel

4 on car, 1 alloy as spare, 6 alloys and 1 steel off the car

Not really sure why I ended up with this many but it's been helpful with punctures and track days.

Considering fitting winter compound tyres to 4 of the alloys that are off the car but as soon as I do that the weather will warm up again

I've got a set of 18's i upgraded to, on the car.

And the 17's that came with the car.

I'm tempted to put some road legal track tyres on the 17's, although winter tyres would probably be a better investment

There is an intersting thread here about insurance and changing your wheels for winter ones. http://snowheads.com/ski-forum/viewtopic.php?t=42714&start=40
