Folks, my summer tyres are down to 2.5mm and I was considering, bearing in mind the time of year, whether to fit all season/winter tyres rather than a new set of summer tyres.
I live in the south (Woking) where we get very little snow but I do some travel in Normandy (Northern France) where...
Recently moved into the countryside and need to change the front 2 tyres.
Which group of tyres is best for country lanes? Can get muddy with cars cutting into the verges when it's a tight squeeze with 2 cars passing each other.
Most of my driving is on these type of roads plus single laned A...
Does anyone know where I can get all season tyres in either
255 45 17
Or
245 45 17
All I can find so far is Goodyear eagle LS
I looked up umpteen of the black circles / camskill etc but no joy.
Many thanks.
Guys,
Ive sold my CLK, but the trade in didn't include my 'winter wheels', so they are now to be found at Mecredes C209 16" Alloy wheels (4) with Winter/All Season tyres | eBay
For sale the original 16” staggered alloys from my 2003 Mercedes CLK 270 CDi.
As they are 2003 they have that...

Hi folks,
I've just taken the plunge for a W212 E350 CDi BluEfficiency Avantgarde from an MB main dealer. I'm made up with the deal and am confident the car will prove to be a goodun.
I've come from just shy of 6 years and 100k miles in a VW Passat 3.2 V6 4-Motion SEL estate. A rare Q-car...

Well it was a sunny day and so I did it all again using AG products and I also put my summer wheels on :)
PS. No machines were used, just elbow grease!

I know the winter tyre on one axle debate has begun and the consensus seems to be, no, that's silly.
But is the same reasoning applicable to all season tyres and summer tyres? I can't afford a set of winters and summers, and as my rears are past their best I was thinking of doing all season...
Hello,
I was wondering if (when my current summer tyres are dead) if I should try a set of all season tyres. I can't justify Winter tyres as the cost is prohibitive for just a few days of snow (I live where its mainly flat). Looking at Mytyres it seems that all season tyres are not that...
My first post and first MB!
The car has 225/45 17s at the front and 245/40 17s at the rear. The latter are worn out and we live in Cumbria. Is there an all season tyre that others have used that fits? Can I fit 225/40s all round on the standard rims? Is there a summer tyre with better grip...
I could have made it home ?
Instead of letting the car crawl embarrassingly and thankfully into a thawed out space, shrugging my shoulders and waving at the people looking out their windows and walking the rest of the way home !
I hope it thaws out so I can put her on my drive !

Managed to clobber a female Pheasant with a death wish on sunday. It was either that or swerve into a local classic Beemer 5 series coming the other way up a tight country lane.
