I left my F1s on too. A lot softer than PS2s and hence seemed to handle better in the colder climate. I normally swap to winter tyres when it's consistently below 7*C.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Ha, gaaaay.


Mine would have been on for UD but they're not going to be built in time - they'll be on when the gritters go away.

Nearly out mine on the other day, then it snowed.

Otherwise, I can't be arsed and have fallen out of love with my car so will see when I can be bothered changing them over.

The gritters haven't been out in the midlands. No salt on the roads at all.

Mine are going on on Thursday - they're only Monzas though! Getting a couple of Eagle F1's fitted from recommendations on here. Can't wait to see the car back on the right wheels.

Agreed, on the few occasions it has frozen - there's been ice on the roads!
