Is anyone on here running their T25 on winter tyres ?? I've tried several places and got told you can't get winter tyres that size for a van ??

I've got some Uniroyal SnowMax 2 185 80x14C
Admittedly still in the shed and no sign of needing them at the moment...
Got them from oponeo.co.uk and fitted locally.

Have you tried some places not stocked entirely by people who cannot be bothered...?

Yep, mine are made by Kumho, 185R14C fitted to a spare set of steelies that some kind person on this forum gave me :)

Mine were second hand, and fitted/ balanced by my local tyre place.

If you get them from Black Circles, you can go to a local garage and have them fitted.

Oponeo are also worth looking at. Again mail-order the tyres and get a local garage to fit - if you have a trusted garage then get the tyres delivered directly to them.

What do you reckon for mileage? Not asking about how many thou miles but good, average or crap?
