No tyres are good in ice/snow, except ones with chains on, and no issues in wet either, but i never pushed the car if it was wet, something iv'e been cautious with the lex also

Shy boys don't get sweeties.
I had Nankangs on my IS for a while fine in the dry but as Bandits says be (very) careful in the wet. What about Kuhmo's I have had them before & they are decent for the money, as are Falkens. Is there much difference in price from the Nankangs to the khumos/Falkens. Dont mean to be a moan but tyres are not something you want to skimp on, get the best you can afford mate.

I know what your saying matey and don't really want anything cheap and nasty but that's where i'm at at the moment especailly with chrimbo on the way, I can get 2 Nankangs for around £35 each were as the Falkens are £65 each, I hate buying tyres as it's something i've never really had to worry about as I can usually get really good part worns from my mate who has a tyre place but he can't get hold of my size so i'm stumped. Think i'm gonna have to sting my mum for a few quid and get something decent.

Oh well bit the bullet and ordered 2 new Falken FK452's just waiting on a phone call to say they've come in, just hope the last longer than the 2 they're replacing:Sulk:
