winter tyres

Postby sgcronin » Fri Dec 04, 2015 6:13 pm

Has anybody fitted winter tyres to their MK2?, I am planning a trip to Switzerland and Austria this winter and to comply with their driving rules I will need to have winter tyres on my car which has wire wheels. Any help will be much appreciated.

Hi Simon,

I looked for you at the NEC but missed you!

I had enough trouble finding a decent set of tyre at a good price, so I'd be surprised at some one making winter tyres for the MkII. It might be worth giving Blockley tyres a call, I had a chat with them at the NEC and they do a reasonable priced tyre for our cars, not sure about winter tyres though!

Best wishes

Brian

Thanks Brian
I will give them a try, I have looked at Vredestien who list 15 inch winter tyres but not sure if you can use them on wire wheels. Hope to see you again at one of the events next year.
