Have a look here for prices:

Their prices for winter tyres seem to have shot up at the moment, but will be worth having a look ready for next year, when the prices come down again.

 

My car has 205/50/16's as standard, but I went for the cheaper, skinnier tyre of 195/55/16.

 

The cost for a pair of cheapies was £78, including vat and delivery 8)

 

I did order them at the beginning of December though, hence the cheaper prices.

 

They've performed well so far and I'm happy with them and would definately recommend them :)

my tyres are quite bad with their stock levels, but are cheap, and on occassion do have some decent brands in.

I bought mine in the summer when cheap!

 

 

M+S tyres are the sh!t when it comes to slippy stuff like snow and ice or muddy fields / roads

 

really? upon what do you base that sweeping statement?

 

I've got an m&s tyre on at the moment

used it in mud - muddy field and on the snow, wet etc and nothing short of impressive in terms of grip!

I've used M+S marked tyres over theyears for all sorts of things, from escorts to 4x4s to field cars... and in saying they are the sh!t (this implies they are good) I am saying i've found them really helpful on loose surfaces or snow / ice. much better than all weather or summer tyres
