And to put things in perspective, the blizzaks and those tyres are no good compared to "real" snow tires such as Nokian Hakkapelitta or Gislaved Nordfrost.all season tyres are nothing like studless tyres. blizzaks and iceguards etc "come alive" in snow and ice.

245/45-19 all four of them. No studs in them unfortunately. Maybe next year.Did you go for smaller width as well? My impression was that the problem with Blizzaks was not the tyre thread or compound but size (LM-25's in smaller sizes are really good winter tyres for snowy conditions, even when compared to newer Nokian studless models).

David, the car looks much better in the flesh. Looks proper.My much tamer and slower snow vid here:
As explained in the vid, my engine isn't knocking, that was a diesel lorry looking on unapprovingly that pulled in right next to my cameraman.
