RE: 17" Snow tires

GW the forum sponsor over on Disco3.co.uk (our older sister forum) AJS Tyres have a very good reputation and are free with advice too, try contacting Andy (I think that's who it is) and ask, they do good forum discounts for RRS and the D3 forum, whether or not they will supply to Scotland I don't know but they do recommend other tyre dealers that they do business with, especially one that features a lot in the magazines Micheldever Tyres. I know they are very keen on the Vredestein (spelling??) Winter tyres

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

Cool, I was looking out for the photo, thanks. Got to say that my Michelin Alpine 2 or is it 3 on 19" aren't too bad on snow and limited ice, but your downsizing doesn't detract from overall styling at all.

I'm really happy with the result, but looking forward to putting my 20" back on Smile

18" with Toyo All Terrain Winter Tyres package. They don't look much smaller than the 20" 's !!
Will get them fitted tomorrow and see how it goes !
