Hi all
I'm thinking of buying some wheels and winter tyres for my P38 for the coming winter.
I've seen some wheels with 235/70/16 BF Goodrich Mud Terrain tyres and I'm wondering if these are ok or too excessive for mostly using on the roads in winter which are mostly wet with possibly some snow for a few weeks.
I also need to drive on forrestry type tracks and some muddy grass tracks and I find that my Scorpions (on 18" hurricanes) do ok for the most part until I go on the wet grass and then they start sliding all over the place.
So the question I'm trying to answer is whether it's actually worth bothering with a set of winter tyres or just keep some snow socks in the boot in case of difficulties (and just not drive down the grass/mud tracks).
If it is worth getting some winter tyres then should I just go for a set with all-terrain tyres or go the whole hog and go for these ones with the mud-terrain tyres.
Thanks for any advice, haven't gone down this route before so no knowledge about specialist tyres and yes I have done searches but nothing really answers my question.
Cheers
