Possible winter wheels for the Monte

Featured Replies

16" Speedlines from an Audi TT - now to choose some tyres

Tyres on currently are 55 profile - winters will be 45 (205/45/16) or 50 profile (195/50/16)

I am tempted to buy some winter tyres for my Furby (especially now I'm working). 205/45 16 is the same as the Mk1 Fabia.

According to tyre tests, the best winter tyres at the moment are Goodyear Ultragrip 8s, but unfortunately you can't buy them in our size. I'm not sure to spend good money on the Goodyear Ultragrip GW3, or go for something cheaper, like Kumhos or Toyos.

go for the best you can afford. The quality of the tyre can mean the difference between a near miss and a boo boo - or worse.

I have Khumo KW 27's on the Octy...Superb tyre

and

Roadstone Winters on the Fabia...Also excellent

Both show little wear from November to March last year and were great in the snow and on ice!!

£94 per corner fitted at local tyre fitter

Cheapest price on eBay was £370 delivered, so only £6 dearer fitted :)
