Mud and snow tyres (1 Viewer)

[Xabia]

My son is using his Fiat based Dethleffs motorhome to take my grandson to Autograss races. By definition the parking is on usually wet grass which as we all know is always a problem. The question is does anyone having a van fitted with Mud and Snow tyres find that they are an improvement in these conditions.

I fitted Hankook 4 season m&s tyres not noticed any difference on grass. My van is an A Cass with a fairly light front end.
He would probably do better to fit full winter tyres.

What size are they pls? Landsail have just started manufacturing an all season tyre which is producing good results,and with it being just below mid- range the prices are realistic.

I've ridden snow tyres all 2016 and they are brilliant - far better on mud and snow than normal tyres.
I change over to normal summer tyres usually for 8 months, but this years trip was to Scotland so I didn't bother.
I would not risk them for a long fast journey in temperatures above 25'c, but for most of the year in the UK I would say they are preferable. FWIW wear has not been excessive over 10,000 miles.

My Michelin camping tyres are M&S rated in that size.
But imho it make little difference once the tread gets clogged with mud, you would need 4x4 tyres then.
Just pick your parking carefully and face down towards your exit, and use second gear.
Wet grass can catch out land rovers.

Oh, I thought our Moho tyres were from Marks and Spencer....

We have a Fiat Ducato Rollerteam 707 and use it for motocross. Unfortunately as it is front wheel drive we tend to keep our towing eye very handy

Farmers call them muck and s**t tyres.

Hankook ! They got us out of all sorts of quagmires and very deep mud
They were extremely quiet on the road, and wore very well indeed. To the point that after 15k miles on them, when we was about to part ex the van, we took them off and swapped them with the Mich's on Darrell's MH.. He still has them on and like us absolutely swears by them.. Also like us they have never failed to pull him out of some VERY sticky mud ( Our van was 4.1t and Darrell's is 3.850t )
