Which reminds me, if TB says his sc5 are good in snow, or better in snow, then that's some progress for Varches point earlier, if I understand it correctly.

And I didn't see your edit.

I'll give you a fortnight of winter tyre weather so far. But that's within the realm of a decent summer tyre. If we're talking auto grip then I'd give you about 9months of winter.

You see my point?

Edit typo.

No, can you run that by me again.  ;) ;) ;D ;D

Edit typo.

Have you tried a decent winter tyre to compare with though? If you haven't, then there isnt any point discussing it. If you truly have and don't feel that there is a difference, then I totally understand where you are coming from.

Sorry, was I accused of not reading posts earlier? Of course I haven't tried them, as there's no need for them in the uk, and I don't need to try them, as I agree with you they will be better...for a fortnight or a similar pointless minimal amount of time.


Sorry D, but there something amiss if your sc3 are spinning up above zero. Pressures maybe? Age?
