I have

Nope, and being in Devon by the sea, don't plan to. Very cold periods are rare.

i'm in the cold east but will wait for the days to get a bit colder first, don't want to wear out the winters before winter starts!

All seasons here too now

I would have believed you about the 7 degrees. There was no need to half blind me with that picture of your clocks.

7°C? That's practically a heatwave.

It was 5°C this morning, and I've seen 6°C at least once a week over the summer.

Cold weather tyres being fitted next week.

Top man!

I was buying Nokian Weatherproof - then heard about Michelin CrossClimate which missed the AutoExpress tests.

CrossClimate about £10+ per corner more than Weatherproof - but the ONLY reason why I switch from buying Weatherproof to CrossClimate is because:

CrossClimate = summer tyre with 3 peaks (winter compliant)

Weatherproof = winter tyre with summer functions

Let us know how they cope!!!

Sorry

Must have posted AFTER watching the new Star Wars VII trailers - lol

Never take mine off

My all seasons went on about a month or so ago. When I go to work in the mornings I haven't seen it above 6Deg C in some time. 3 - 3.5 seem to be the magic numbers at moment. 

Nope, and like every other year I won't bother.

My winters will be gong on the DS4 at the end of October

None for the 5

Nope, and like every other year I won't bother.

In that case you (and I) are going to die in an exploding ball of fire in the bottom of a snow filled ravine, having slid off an ungritted ice-covered road due to us not having spent £800 on a spare set of extra wheels and tyres to store in our sheds most of the year.

I've been driving for about 45 years, do about 30,000 miles a year, and I've been killed EVERY year.

Um, no, hang about,,,,,,,,,,,,

Here we go again!!

Look what you've done Wayne!!

LOL

Yep, me too. Or maybe I just adjusted my driving when the weather is poor.

I test fitted the wheels I had intended to use for winter tyres, they don't clear the calipers :( I may just not bother this year.

Had four degrees yesterday morning. Wont bother to change tyres untill it freezes. Then its time dig out the studded tyres, hope for snow and then really test what the 4x4 is good for

Here we go again!!

Look what you've done Wayne!!

LOL

Moi?

It's God s snowflakes, not my snow-making machine!

Lol

Someone SHOULD start a "ALL SEASONS" vs "WINTERS" tyres thread!!!

As all-season game changers: Weatherproof and CrossClimate claims to be (and so far reviewed to be) almost as good as summer and winter tyres!!!

PLUS the Nokian ones are damn CHEAP too!

Dear old Surrey / Kent borders will probably not get nippy enough until November.

Having said that I have probably now damned the locality to a Siberian blast worthy of CS Lewis' winter queen [emoji2]

IT was 3 degrees and thick fog, and dark!  cycling to work at 5.15 yesterday morning in the sticks, but 16 on my way home, I will not change both bike and car till it gets below 5 most days .I need them to get up the 20% hills with sharp bends  to get to and from work, necessity for me 

Middle of Wales, frosts in the morning, car tends to say 2 degrees when I leave in mornings, am I going to bother with winters? No, got weight over back wheels and front, will be fine as long as I don't drive like a ****

These are the tyres I want, but they don't do a 215/55/17 yet :(

 

I know there is a strong argument against Winter/All season tyres, but when I started to drive I managed to go without, ABS, Airbags, Seatbelts (optional) all round disc brakes, modern crumple zones, advance crash detection  etc etc and I didn't happen to die in a huge fireball or even have a minor bumpl. But, given the choice of ABS, Airbags, Great brakes etc, and not having them, I know which I prefer

They don't, they just use the heat that radiates from their smugness in not having to spend money on cold weather tyres to melt the snow and ice around their vehicles!

Basic car control?

Had em on the Clio last year, never needed them so wasted £450, never gonna bother again unless a serious weather patch
