I've been driving to Germany now for over half a century in a variety of cars - first time in 1963 with a VW Beetle, split back-window. I've never bothered about winter tyres but have just been told that they are now a legal requirement, even for foreign registered cars. My GLA has R19 run-flat tyres. I have no idea whether these are all-year-tyres but I doubt it.

When the present tyres need replacing can I get all-year-tyres for my GLA (2015)? I think that the hassle of changing to winter tyres might make me think again about coming over in the winter. I'll check with my dealer when I get back to the UK but would appreciate comments via the forum.

Danke im voraus ... RTB

This might help: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/access...es-test-20162017-top-all-weather-tyres-tested seems that they are still a bit of a compromise though.

Thanks for that helpful link.
I'll also ask at the dealer when I take the car in for its service.

We run ours on Nokian all-weathers all year round. They are winter legal in Germany and no material difference in summer to standard tyres. If anything a bit quieter, unexpectedly!!

That does sound like something to consider then. So even in summer they seem to act fine?
