But any I have seen before looked like this:

I assume one is new and old? Which have I got and whats the real world difference?

IMO the old ones are pretty sketchy, but roll quicker. More like a slightly gripper Fred, whilst the new ones are a faster Nic.

I’d use the new ones on the front in all but very muddy conditions, whilst I’d keep that for much drier conditions (on the front at least).
