winters off - summers on
Should be the end of winter by now - so 19's with Wintracs off and summers on - 275/45x21 Pirelli Scorpion Verde all weathers.

Size of the 21's seem to suit the car - first impressions (as you'd exepct) ride a touch harsher - will see how it goes over the next week or so.
If I am happy then my D4 20's will be in the for sale section as I wont need 19's, 20's and 21's.

@ Russ - yes, latest RRS 21's. Tyres are Scorpoin Verdes rated at 110 W XL, so high enough for the D4 as well.
Al
PS - just done 340mile round trip, Verdes were quite quiet after the Wintracs - a little harsher, but now worse than the 20's I ran last summer, and a little bit of "pulling" on ruts, down to the slightly fatter width. I think I can live with that.
PPS - and yes a 275/45x21 fully inflated will fit underneath for the spare

Changed the wife's Jazz back onto summers this morning. Even if it goes a bit nippy it will be fine.
Not had the Bm on winters this year - only had it since the end of Jan and hasn't been an issue at all. I have bought a set of winters for next though Mark.
