Re: let the winter come
Overall, you have only michelin, pirelli and conti in these sizes. I chose the contis because there were the cheaper and the T810S is highly rated.
I think Nokian is available in 18". Gnil on this board has them I think.
Check www.reifendirekt.ch
Good luck...In any case, for me it's not only for snow, but for cold. I found that the michelin pilot have no grip in subzero temperatures.

Re: let the winter come
I have to face snow and cold. Today for example i got up and it was -2 so i think that in a couples of weeks we will be well below zero.
I've given a look to that website but i cannot find anything on my tyre size. For the front is ok but i cannot find anything for the rear....295/30...
Do i need to consider a spacer for the rear or do i need to change also rims?

Re: let the winter come
Like Jeannot said I do have the Nokian in 295/3....? on 18'' rims.
I did find that if I accelerate hard on dry tarmac they get worm fast!!
My car is at the garage today to change a few thinks on warranty, but I did not tell them to put the winter tyres on... did hesitate though.
I don't want to kill them with too much driving on dry roads...and hopefully we will get to some nicer temperatures again.
Jeannot.. I will also order y tyres from that online site, I already told the garage about it, they are not too happy, but....

Route de chavannes in Vidy/Lausanne. But there are plenty in Switzerland
When I braught my wife's X5 there last time they put one of the back wheel ( 285) in the front and the 245 at the back
Not very serious..... I would not trust them with my P.
The one in Malley a little bit more.... but did not plan to go there. You are happy with them it seems.
Just got back from the garage, collected my car, had to change the front braking pads after 21000 km
will see it when the bill comes
