Anyone tried Nankang? Might get a cheapy set for the missus car, as by all accounts the C-Max is woeful in the snow.

Used them on a car for 4 days and had them changed <cough ditchfinders cough>. That was summer tyres, their winters may be better
Don't know about Nankang Winters but their summer tyres did dreadfully in a comparison test with some branded ones, as did all the other budget tyres.
I guess it depends on how much value you put on safety......
Quite a lot, but equally don't want to spend a ton of cash as I've got Quattro on my car which we use more in winter.
The car has quite big tyres so are quite pricey to get tyres for (205/50/R17).
I'd look on ebay to see if anyone is flogging off steel wheels cheaply, if not mytyres do full sets of steels and winters.

going to make this a sticky for the winter and will un stick it when summer comes back again
New sig coming soon
Depends how you drive - Nankang's were the best cheap tyres I've ever had. wear out quick and other brands out perform them but you get what you pay for.
I've gone to a set of steel wheels with Pirelli snow controls front and back. had fronts only last year and spend a fair bit of time catching the back end stepping out. (Yoko Paradas on the back)
Read a few bits about tyres being useless in snow when the tread drops below 4mm, makes sense I guess.
