Tyres for newby

LOL Yes I know exactly what you mean.

Won't sleep tonight for thinking about those early morning work runs in the snow on the mountain road, but she always got me there.

Thanks for all the replies.

To answer question on usage.
Sensible head says it will be used on wet and possible snowy tarmac in the cold, hilly 'B' roads of northern east England (near durham). And will be a 'must get to work' work horse.

Silly head says I am having so much fun in this old tin box compared to my new rear wheel drive comfort box that farm lanes will come into the mix and possibly even some summer off roading but I don't really expect these tyres to be focused on this.

There seems to be a consensus that moving that's small step from 205/70/15 to 205/75/15 improves things generally?

Other tyre recommendations that have been thrown my way are General Grabber AT. The ones with the S swirl tread pattern and Maxis Buckshot which I know nothing about and finally the Cooper Weather-Masters.

Pleased I asked such a simple question
