    Lots of deals around at the moment offering 25% off four Michelin tyres, so they could work out cheaper.:money:

    Kenway tyres are doing 25% off 4 tyres round our way, might be worth phoning and checking.

    http://www.atseuromaster.co.uk/voucher/Michelin-4-Tyre-Offer-.html is the ATS Euromaster offer.
    http://www.atseuromaster.co.uk/voucher/Michelin-4-Tyre-Offer-.pdf print this voucher, valid till 31st December:D

    Price check with the usual blackcircles etc to make sure it's cheaper of course - tyre prices can vary wildy from place to place.

    Hope this helps. Have read some really good things about snow tyres (I know the double level sipes on Michelin ones that increase the grip the further worn the tyres become mean that the tyres are made to really tight limits - hope it's OK for me to say that here:o)

    Who told you that?

    If there's enough snow, of course they can.

    What you cannot do is damage the road with them.
