For folk who have or had winter tyres fitted to their cars, what are the opinons of swapping them for summer tyres with the current "milder" weather?:scratch: Or is it better to leave this swap until later in March??

...sure as damn it I will swap the tyres over on both MINIs and we will get a truck load of :snow:

Andrew,

...next query, does anyone know what size socket you need for the locking wheel bolt? A 17mm seems slightly too big?

Cheers
