Please allow me to show you my pictures of a Norwegian winter, three days before Christmas my home place looked like this at minus 20 degrees Centigrade: http://homepage.mac.com/tangen/vinterbilder.html Sweeden looks about the same. No one drives on anything but snow tyres under such conditions. I live just one hour south of Oslo, and this autumn I changed to winter tyres on October 13, and they probably will stay on until mid-April. The only discussion going on here is whether steel studs should be used or not. Most people seems to manage perfectly well without studs. -- Leif Tangen, Svelvik, Norway 1976 96L V4 1977 99 GLS 1986 900i 1992 900i 2,1 Griffin 1998 900S 1999 9-5 2,0t
