I've got Pirellis for winter tyres. Think they're called SnowControl or something like that.

To be honest, whatever winter tyres you get, they're going to be about a million times better in the snow than summer ones, regardless of how well you can drive in snow. They're unbelievably good.

Ahh cheers guys !probably need a wee spacer on the front to clear my tt brakes ya think? Or does anyone run there standard monzas with big brakes?

[Dom_]

Pretty sure Monza's fit over big brakes but would need someone to confirm for sure

If your running 312mm on the front the standard 16" Monzas will fit as you need a 16" minimum but if your running 323mm then you will need 17" minimum! Hope this helps

[drennan]

Yep that helped 16" monzas with the 312mm tt fronts

Not a problem boss
