Hi all

Spending my first year living on the side of a hill instead of leeds suburbs... it's nice but I had forgotten the practicalities of getting up/down some of the local steep roads that are ungritted. Plus I'm spending a lot of time on the road to client sites with some interesting conditions.

I'm after 2 pieces of advice:

A recommendation for a good winter/hybrid tyre - something that is ok on light snow, heavy rain, etc (but doesnt have to be a full blown deep snow/alpine tyre)

A Yorkshire (leeds/bradford area) fitter that can supply (at a fair price) to do a nice quality job for four snow tyres for an Audi.

Cheers

+1 for Alba tyres on the Otley Road just before Headingly.

Will match most other prices and good service

Thanks - will try them for price; they have certainly been around for a few years - Alba being the one on the right heading out of Headingley if you are heading toward the uni?
