Would be good to hear from more folk who are thinking of winter tyres. My car arrives in a few weeks and so a decision will need to be made quite quickly after that as to what I am doing. It's a company car so if I run winters, it'll be my own set out of my own pocket, which I don't mind that much. The car will come on the 19s so I think buying a set of 18 inch wheels with 225/45/19 all round will be better, as allows for rotating back to front each year, which should allow me to get an even 3-4 winters from a set, which is the lifetime of the car in my hands.

The size also allows All season options like the Michelin Cross Climate and Bridgestone Weather Control to be considered, alongside winter options.

The reality for me is a I won't really face all that much snow, so an All-season is a better option I think.
