have finally got my 996 booked in for its annual prodding.
shes been parked for over a month now but am missing driving her now and hadnt remembered mot had ran out.
i know she needs a new pair of boots on the back so hopefully that will be all [fingers crossed]
then can tax and use her again. although theyre saying heavy snow again later today
anyone know how the carrera 2 is in snow????? i would have thought they are reasonable with the engine weight being over
the back axle.
any recommendations for best tyres on back and a rough idea on price????

Big fat summer tyres and rwd equates to being lousy in the snow. I would suggest you match your new rear tyres with whatever brand you currently have fitted to the front.

Agree. I like the Michelin PS2's, however if you only need 2 then I'd match what you have on the front.
