No contest. Winter tyres, even cheap ones are night and day different.

I've ran them last two years and live on a mad hill. Last year I bought Avon ice touring st and they are brilliant. Tested on the Rochdale road in big snow. Laughed at it.

Prior to that had Goodyear winters and they were pricy but also really good.

The car is AwD but it's totally different on slush and snow with winter tyres.

110nm for wheels mate.

You could find a cheap set of omanyts or any 5x112 you like.

Run winters from November to March. Makes your summer tyres last ages too. Winters are good for 3-4 years easy. Makes financial sense too especially if you buy from camskill using their finance facility. No upfront heavy cost, small monthly payment of a few pounds that just ticks away unnoticed.
