I ordered some snow socks this afternoon. I didnt want to experience the same problems as last year. Snow/winter tyres at £145 each werent an option and I didnt fancy snow chains on alloys. So I will give the snow socks a go and just keep them in the boot and see if they help? If not it looks like a cheep 4wd or change to an RX next year
Socks Or Chains?

I found it useful to fit them by passing them around the front or back of the tyre rather tha over the top of the wheel where there isnt much clearance. If I knew that I was going to be pulling up on a road covered in snow, I just kept my speed down on the cleared roads, no harsh accelerating, braking or turning. avoiding the hastle of taking them off only to put them back on.
