It's snowing here tonight, so winters will go on the X5 later this week and will get the 911 swapped over next week.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

15 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • PistonHeads: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well it's due to get cold down south so swapped over the summer rims to winter - anyone else on here doing that? Massive difference in grip already on this mornings commute - at about 7 degrees - should be even more marked when the weather turns colder...

POST 4Original post

I changed the Boxster and the A6 Quattro over at the weekend. Bring on the snow - both cars are great fun to drive in it, especially the Boxster with the roof down!

POST 5Original post

I changed onto the winters on my CS on the weekend also.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Good to see I'm not the only crazy one. Having said that - unbelievable how good they have been in the last two days in near zero temp - the grip you get from the tyres is almost on par with good summer tyres on a 20 degree day - its absolutely stonking. Love them.

POST 7Original post

Mine went on on Monday too. Also applied Gummi Pflege to everything before it freezes shut! S

POST 9 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Summer Rims Winter Rims Have to say really enjoying the car on the Winters - excellent grip in these conditions - makes the car a proper year round proposition...

POST 10Original post

Put the winters on the wife's car last weekend, just before the road outside our house turned into an ice rink. Will be putting them on my 4S either today, if I can be arsed to drag the trolley jack out, or during the week. Those who haven't driven on winters will never know how good they are ( and usually slag off those who fit them).

POST 11Original post

-5°C when I left the house this morning, so the summer tyres (PS2s) felt very stiff and unsettled. Came back on the winters (Sottozeros) this afternoon, noticing both that the usual applies - steering slightly heavier and less 'feelsome' and more road noise, but that ride felt considerably more supple. Definitely time to change over. Although weather forecast is for 10°C by the weekend, so I guess we can't win…

POST 12Original post

A 911 or boxster/cayman on steels would look awesome. Can you get them?

POST 13Original post

I wish I could get winters on my GT3. The only problem ill need another set of GT3 rims, as C2 996 front alloys won't fit over the front callipers.

POST 15Original post

Mine will go on this weekend... From 18s to a set of 17s with vredestein wintrac extremes on. They were superb last year and got me out of my hilly estate where 4x4s on summer rubber were stuck. They do feel utterly different. Even as a non driving god I find tyres make a huge difference to a car, and it seems the 911 is particularly sensitive to tyre choice for the feel you then get...
