I live in Suffolk and work at the Port Of Felixstowe, and my Zed is my daily driver.
After some spinning adventures in the winter on RE040's, I decided to get winter rubber, especially as I had a spare set of wheels to put them on it seemed the logical choice.
I had some instances where I couldn't even get off my own drive, but with winter rubber, no problem.
Running Nankang SV-2 in the winter, Falken 452 in the rest of the year.
On a side note (which will please Dan the Tyre Tyrant ), on my last trip to the Ring on the Falkens, I lost grip during after having done two laps with breaks inbetween them.
Now it was either me chucking the Zed in too fast or the grip levels had dropped off (most likely a bit of both ).
So since then, I have contemplated that for Ring Runs, I'll be investing into better rubber and running the smaller Rays rather than the 19"'s.
I know Dan, you have been saying it forever and I have agreed with it, but never really thought about it since I don't really track the car on a regular basis, but even for the odd trip to the Ring, yeah, deffo. Don't want to have a fun day ruined by having to have my Zed picked up by Ring Recovery
