Vickie I bought Vredestein snowtrac extremes XL from Tyremen.com about £130 per tyre they are brilliant been all over eastate roads untreated and never got stuck, I cant emphasise enough how good these are.

Snow Tyres (winter tyres) offer better grip and repel water/snow off a lot quicker than a normal tyre as they have better tyre tread patterns.
