Hi looking for a set of winters for my new to me touring. Nothing fancy, ideally a scruffy set of steels with decent useable winter tyres. I'm happy to organise a courier.
Cheers, Johnny

Take them great price and 14's are the way to go, there is no better feeling then driving up a hill in a 30 year old car in the snow on winter boots and laughing at the £80k Range Rover spinning its wheels lol

i remember about 13yr's ago living in a little town just outside mablethorpe which had a great long steepish hill on the main road out.
there's me in the e30, on 15's with snow/winter tyres plodding up the hill on my way to work, while the local show off sat near the bottom spinning his wheels, move a couple of foot then sliding back down.
on my way home (sent home as the boss couldn't get in) there was said RR still stuck at the bottom of the hill.
to add insult to injury it was me who had to tow him out & back home using a mates old massey tractor.
never laughed so much in one day,

It's not the car or the tyres as if you "know" how to drive in snow even you will get away with it, winter tyres and wheels make the job a hell of a lot easier, these 4X4 drivers on low profiles think they can go through everything but can't, I drove to and from Gdansk back in the day in a Ford Orion on standard tyres and errrr made it even though it got down to -25 degrees brother in law did have to sit on the bonnet and it took three attempts to get up the steep hill from the holiday home though.
