My new winter project - Wheels!
Afternoon all despite my issues with the stereo I did enjoy a trip to a Ferrari garage in Wandsworth today to get some winter tyres and a trip to Haslemere for a set of 3 series wheels to wear my new rubber.
Not sure i'll ever actually use the winter tyres but i've always been curious and last year was, to be frank, mental!

I plan to get my spare set of alloys shod with winter tyres as it does get a little tricky when the white stuff starts falling being a daily drive and all.

Hmmm, maybe this would be a good use for the wheels I took off when I upgraded to 18's... My 5 series was hopeless in the snow, and I doubt my 3 series would be any better.
Are they expensive compared to standard tyres?
