New tyres (and just in time looking at the snow)

[Tawny]

I've got Tawny a nice new set of five Uniroyal RE2's to replace the pick'n'mix she had on when I bought her. :grin:

OSF: Falken Ziex ZE912
OSR: Firestone Firehawk TZ200
NSF: Mohawk M112
NSR: Wanli S-1080
Spare: Cooper Zeon XTC (with big splits in the inner sidewall)

The nearside two had especially bad reviews.
I haven't a clue where I'd go if I'd had to brake hard with that lot...

Good effort - nothing quite like having four completely different tyres for playing "ditch roulette"! :lol:

 

[Tawny]

But wouldn't playing ditch roulette with two Chinese ditchfinders be cheating? :wink:

 

[Tawny]

Well, the tyres work. :grin:
I had to go in to work today; Tawny could get out of the car park and up the hill, my colleague got out of the car park... but after much wheel spinning ended up at the bottom of the hill.
We had to dig him a couple of channels to drive up. :roll:

This time last year I had this

so didn't worry too much when it snowed.

Today was the first time that I have driven the Puma in the snow, have to say very impressed with how it coped. We live down an unadopted road, but neither that, or the supermarket carpark, or the petrol station fased the little green monster at all.

Cheers
