tried mine on the icy roads tonight.....first real experience and I was very impressed.
While I realise she will still slide, she went up braes that all the other cars were stuck on with ease :)

Got my new tyres on Coopers Discoverers) & it really feels much better, even though the Bridgestone Duelers had some decent grip left - kept them anyway.

We've still got patchy frozen snow & there was another inch of the white stuff this morning, so I'm glad I went ahead with the new tyres & with getting Jimny.

Lol, I've ordered some stickers, wind deflectors & sunvisor tape - I never bother with pimping cars normally & I'm going to paint the steelies black...WTF?
