Hi Nicam,
I've not used proper winter tyres before.
I get that they will wear more than all season tyres, but can they be used throughout the year?
Anyone ?
Many thanks, Nik H |

Three Peaks Mountain Snow Flake, I believe.
Basically, pukka snow tyres in Europe although I don't have details of the formal tests.
All the best,

Hi Eric,
I had to learn this myself - but the snowflake symbol does reference the best winter tyres !
The Nokians have the best 'European label' of the list and are also the most expensive.

I can put in 37 litres into the tank 40 miles after the low fuel light comes on. Doesn't seem right?
