I have two sets of 5.7vxr wheels for my monaro, and use the Vredsteins wintertrac from November to February. They are IMO a great tyre when the weather goes nasty and are pretty good up to about 10 degrees. Once you go beyond this they do feel a bit wobbly. I have found they need a higher pressure then summers and sarge 4x4 has advised I go up by 5psi to 41psi which I will try this winter. When the white stuff arrives I can go places 4x4's can't which is fun in a 400bhp car.

Hope you don't mind me asking, but while we're on the subject, can anyone recommend some all season tyres for my monaro?
The new Michelin crossclimates sound fantastic but I don't think they'll be available in 18's till next year.
An all season tyre is a bit of a compromise. Too soft and Woolley in summer and better than a summer, but not as good as a cold weather/winter tyre in winter.The new Michelin crossclimates sound fantastic but I don't think they'll be available in 18's till next year.

£171 For my summer set I ordered 2 Michelin super sports 245/35/19's from Openeo. £151 each
When ordered it said 48 hrs, but took 2 weeks and a number of emails. Apperently they got stuck in Calais and then lorry got hijacked and tyres set on fire. Be that as it may, but I had a delay, which I was not pleased with and had I not contacted would not have been called. When I threatened to cancel order and get refund the tyres turned up the next day.
