Transit Custom Sport Winter/ All Season Tyres.

Postby ShedPete » Tue Dec 18, 2018 9:38 pm

Hi all,

Just after some advice.

Recently got my Sport 290 L1H1 which has 235/50x18 Goodyear Eagle F1 tyres fitted, I'm looking at getting some Winter or All Season tyres for a second set of rims, and wondered if anyone has any recommendations.

Thanks.
Pete.

Hi,
Go for full winters if you’re going to get a second set of rims. All seasons would only be worth trying if you had one set of wheels. I use Nokian tyres in Finland and in the UK on my Tourneo and have never been disappointed.

Cheers, James.

I've just got a set of Michelin Agilis crossclimate all season tyres fitted to my limited (16" rims) - all good so far - they have the full winter rating (with little snowy mountain symbol) & supposed to be good for all year round too and with good wear resistance - so far no noticeable difference in noise or fuel consumption.

My friend with a Sport has also just got them fitted to his 18" rims (but they are the SUV version, not sure how much difference that will make)

I've bought a set of Maxxis 215-60-17. So far I like them.

Not very noisy and the grip is good

Michelin Agilis CrossClimate fitted to mine have been superb compared to the Good Years that we’re fitted before ( they weren’t winter tyres though)
