Ive just put my winter wheels back on ( "14" steelies with Vredstein tyres ) and the tyre noise is so different to the summer tyres( "15" alloys with Avon tyres ) the winter tyres are sooooo noisy and the steering input is a little slow and delayed ( but still really grippy )...just not as responsive as the summer avon`s......but id rather have better grip in the cold/snow/slush conditions any day... Best way to cancel the noise out is to turn the stereo up.!!!

What a tool... :bananapopcorn:

So in other words what you are saying is that run-flats are pants as they cant adopt BMW`s geo positions.? would it resolve the inner tyre wear if the tyres were NON run-flats.? so letting the tyre wall compress.? to allow for the geo positions.? :bananapopcorn:

Sounds like a massey ferguson....... :bananapopcorn:

Mine auto dip to the right position when I put it in reverse Flash git.. Its a good idea though is it just lexus or do other car manufactures cars wing mirrors do it

thats funny,mutant wild hampter.!

Stunning motor in the flesh ( sat in one up wentworth G.C ) just NOT in the wrap though..

OK, you choose Thats fighting talk.!

OMG.!!!! The car was mullerd.!! good job the crash safety shell was all in tact.!

Oooopss me bad...sorry. dont shoot me.!

That motor lives in garston....see it most days going out on my delivery...

Yes mate sad pic indeed... Did anyone watch.."Dispatches"" Street kids "program on monday night.? That was a sad program to watch,some of the kids where homless because of abuse @home,and didnt get on with there parents or mums new boyfriend....i think most of them where about 15/16... One girl up in edinburgh left home @ 12 because her mum was always drinking and on drugs and was really violent with the girl....now the kid is 16 and has been abused by men and is addicted to heroin because she got caught with the wrong crowd on the streets... Sad indeed...makes you appreciate things a bit more when you see things like that..

The tyres were the quatrac 2mate..and found them fairly good in the snow when driving braking etc....very noisy though but think most winter or all season tyres are like that anyway... I think the thing that helped me in the snow the most was the fact the tyres where very skinny in width so helped cut through the snow better....( 175/65/14 )

Whats the matter with that tyre..??? A bit of gaffer tape it would be good as new.!!

I when i brought my car last year i had steel "14" rims on my car with "Vredstein all season tyres" fitted to the car,during the winter we had last year the tyres performed really well in the cold and snowy conditions...( just very noisy though ) so this year i brought some OEM "15" alloys with summer tyres on them purley for the summer months.....so i will swap back to my steel wheels soon for the cold winter months My question is are " all season tyres" just as good as "winter tyres" ..?

Ants===Can of hairspray and a lighter....nuff said.!

I would say its to do with "unsprung weight" also the cars run virtually no movement in the springs on F1 cars so the tyres sidewall takes care of the flex over kerbs and bumps/compressed surfaces..?

Ill be there at 12pm and will have a couple of friends coming with me...cant wait,should be a great day in the life of WIM....

You might have to tell people to park around the corner in the gravel area/carpark.?The people that are coming to see them...........not the supercars themselves.

bsifjb erirbgilqr he vher vh qevr vnm dmq cjk....!!!! Dont say.....NO....to Panda.....Silly but i love it.!.
