I guess the next question is how long before having similar tyres in terms of performance to stock becomes part of the mot? Rhubarb and custard let fly with their secret weapon.

If you choose winter tyre according to the new labeling system you´re bound to get into trouble. The tyre pushers in Norway have created their own label system for winter tires to help consumers in making the right choice.

The label system is fine for summer tires, but completed f**ked up for winter tires manufactured for real winter conditions.


I did wonder how this would affect Winter Tyres - surely they look awful according to the new labelling system?

But Sven, why do people in Norway care what idiocy the EU forces the rest of the EU to swallow? Real trucks don't have spark plugs
