That said there are people like Vredestein and Nokian who do great winter tyres at a price between a ditch finder special and Michelin, who tend to be the most pricey... I have had good experiences with Nokian WRG2 and the newer WRA3 and they suit the range of conditions needed for UK use....

Last winter I did a lot more than 1% driving on snow and ice, and I only commute through Oxfordshire!
