Not bothering with winter tyres, you don't need them as long as you treat the conditions your driving in with respect!
That's a rubbish attempt at trolling.

Very True
I respect the changeable aspect of winter driving, therefore I chose to fit winter tyres.
Firstly I hit a patch of black ice after a 12mile drive on clear and gritted roads
Secondly it snowed whilst i was at work and I had to drive back home at 10-15mph.
I know not everyone is sold on the idea of fitting winter tyres, but if you've not tried something maybe you can't offer a considered opinion.
Do they really make that much difference?
I'd have thought snow chains in the boot would have been a better idea but if winter tyres are so good, i hold my hands up and should really give them a go.
I was thinking last night if your gonna prepare for winter do they make winter brakes? Pads&disks n stuff then should u change ur tracking for winter?
If you have a remap should you consider or should the companies offer summer/winter maps?
Just a thought I'm sure other stuff could be changed

I used snow chains (with summer tyres) before I got winter tyres for my FR. They work well for getting you home if you're stuck on snow covered roads. The ride quality (if that's even the right word for it) is truly awful, kinda like driving a tractor I imagine. They work in deep snow (several inches) as long as it's not so deep as to become heaped up in front of your car.Do they really make that much difference?
