Re: Summer or Winter Tyres?

I believe it's very rare to see winter tyres in use the UK?

It was my understanding they are aimed at countries where snow chains are a requirement. They are often used on an alternative set of wheels specially for winter use in countries like Switzerland and Austria etc
