Talking Anyone else getting their Winter tyres ready?

Afternoon!

Anyone else getting ready for Winter? According to the weather frogs, Autumn has began and that means that Winter ain't far now... We have a Winter tyre law here, saying that you MUST fit Winter tyres if driving on snow/ice and other conditions. If you don't, you'll get points (but no prizes) and a nasty fine...

So, I've been getting my rims and tyres ready and thought I'd ask here: anyone else doing so? Anyone else here drive Winter tyres - even though the standard "English Winter" is rather warm and wet compared to a German Winter - except the last couple of years (last X-Mas I was probably the only moving vehicle in South-East England around Harwich ).

Just thought I'd also show what I'll be using this year (again):




Yep, white walls!

So, what will you be driving this Winter?
