MegaSack DRAW - 6pm Christmas Eve - LIVE on our YouTube Channel
Got MOT for the HOnda HRV coming up, it's going to fail on tyres or may scrape a advisory, eitherway it will need new rubber.
As most of you car buffs will know HRV has part time hydraulic 4x4 that only kicks in when needed.
The tyre size is a bit weird apparenlty 205/60R16?
I dont want full blown mad monster truck tyres but I want to get a tidy brand, ive done th ebudget tyres on numeorus cars before and they dont last aslong as branded IMO.

Vredestein Quatrac 3
How often will you take the car offload ?
Do you want all season tyres with a bias for cold weather (ice and snow) ?
EDIT:
Have a look at this [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/anyone-use-winter-car-tyres-all-year-round ]thread[/url]
I have found Conti's on our Audi Quattro to be excellent, all on road but plenty of grip in snow and ice (we love on a steep hill which a private road so not swept)
I've had Quatrac 3s on my Focus for a year and they've been excellent so far. Just as good as full-on winter tyres and can't really tell they're not summer tyres in the summer.
Have a set of Avon Ice Touring tyres on a Octavia 4x4 and last winter during the worst of the snow was able to climb an 18% hill that a discovery three was struggling to get up. In your size on Oponeo they are doing them for £71 a corner delivered.
cheers all, sorry for double post
I have all season Hankook Optimo 4s on my car and we have winter tyres all year round on my wife's car. I do 30k pa she does 6k pa.
When push comes to shove winters are a little better but any sensible person drives with a bit of care in wintry weather.
I would whole heartedly recommend four season tyres, the Hankooks are great in snow, brilliant in the wet and very comfy AND hardwearing in summer.
Pirelli P6 4 Seasons - had them on the Outlander and they were really rather good in anything upto lightish snow (inch or so).
I hate Bridgestones in general.
