Been looking at mytyres they are doing steel wheels and winter tyres quite cheap

I use my Avus's as I have RSTT's for the rest of the year and only then when it snows bad...

I have another set of Avus's that need a refurb that I was planning to use as 'winter' wheels but I don't do the mileage inthe S3 now so prob won't bother... the FK452's I have on the RSTT's are good enough in the winter, just crap in the snow

As with Tufty, I used to use my Avus's. But have to admit last couple of years I haven't bothered and just leave the OZ's on. I tend to use the Cordy if the weather is really bad anyway. Might invest in a set of 15 inch winter tyres for that as I've got some spare rims.

My Avus's with Yoko mud and snow tyres... not really winter ones but they are the nuts in the actual snow....

In the same boat but with a 8P I bought some 15" A4 steel wheels and put some proper winter tyres on them ready before the prices shoot up

i just keep same wheels on give the wheels a good clean i mean good clean!!!

wheels off clean with wheel cleaner then 4 coats of poor boys wheel sealent leave for 2 hours each coat then clean off and wheels will last fine all winter.

even polished lip etc saves buying new set of wheels for the sake of a days cleaning on wheels and a pot of wheel sealent which is £10
