Just to note, the Vredesteins I use are not N-rated but the right load rating for my car.

But has anyone here actively given up changing over to winter tyres for those days and nights below 7 degrees?

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.

No difference in noise between the Continentals and Vredesteins on the turbo.
I have a set of wheels with Vredstein Wintrak Extreme winter tyres for my Cayman, and they are great in the snow. Absolute night and day compared to summer tyres in the snow.
I think several people on here have winter tyres for their 996s. I know Min has the same tyres as me on his Turbo, and had really good results in the snow.
I got replica turbo wheels from Design911 for my Vredestein Wintrac Xtremes. I was mobile the whole 5 weeks of snow in 2010. The car had no problems going up hill even with 5 inches of snow. I use them yearly from November to March and the car grips a lot better on cold or frosty roads. If the ambient temperature is above 10 degrees you will feel the car understeer and the steering becomes quite vague as the tyre blocks move around more.
sorry been away for a few days.

Have a look at this link for the right sizes and recommendations. http://www.porsche.com/usa/accessoriesandservices/porscheservice/documentsanddownloads/
Just to note, the Vredesteins I use are not N-rated but the right load rating for my car. I figured the non-N rated tyres were fine given that I was using them for potentially adverse conditions and would not be driving the car like Porsche intended.
Useful information even living in East Anglia which isn't known for long harsh winters. Don't think we get Siberian winds as much as we used to. Might pay me to look into this.
But has anyone here actively given up changing over to winter tyres for those days and nights below 7 degrees?
