Winter tyres, when to remove

nik patel · 03-17-2014, 11:24 AM

Hi

Just wondering for those who have them on, when are you putting your summer tyres on? April?

I'm even thinking the time would be good now? esp with the recent good sunny weather

My summers have been back on for a few weeks now.To be honest I didn't really need to put them on,but did as a precaution when the temps dipped.
Enjoying the new wheels and rubber now and they only take a few minutes to changeover if need be.

Changed mine back on Sunday. I imagine snow is round the corner.

Alrite, Alrite it's getting old now!

We all know you didn't buy winters, well done!

Ha!

Such a strange winter in the UK.

Would be suprised to have anything to worry about now. Temperatures have been warm recently and hardly had any proper frosty mornings.

Yawn

Jase 320d · 03-17-2014, 04:58 PM

It has been the mildest winter i can remember for a long time.

First winter i've not even had the long johns on! Usually have them on for months.

And at the start is was apparently going to be the coldest winter on record

Can someone please explain to me how it's "wasting money"..? Running winters actually saves me money in the long run..
