I'm looking at getting some 255 50 19 winter tyres which tyres do you rate on here and would 255 55 19 be a better option as ive read about people using these whats the difference I'm after something that will stop me in the snow better than the tyres ive got on hankook RH06 M+S

Hi,
I had 55% aspect ratio tyres, they give you another 5% of the 255 tyres width as side wall height

In theory as more side wall = softer ride but doubt you will feel any difference between the 2 sizes
more side wall = more ground clearance (12mm ish mind) that may not be much, but if there is a lump of ice in front of you on the road it could be all you need to avoid damage to the front valance.

if you go for 55% they may have more appeal if you sell them as fit D3 and D4

I hear the pirelli scorpion verde 20" tyres are an amazing all round tyre (inc snow)

I ran my last TDv8 on Pirelli Ice and Snow tyres in the winter and they were amazing. I had to refit them in July 2009 for a trip south after being forced off the road by a lunatic motor cyclist who would have gone to meet his maker had I not pulled onto the verge at 60mph and hit a concrete culvert that smashed both near side alloys ( fortunately only 5 miles from home) 24 hours before I was setting out for a run to London. We had horrendous rain most of the drive south and the Ice and Snow tyres were brilliant in standing water on the M6 too. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it

Albeit, in 20" form, but I have not been disappointed with these at all

Mikey, those look like they might also make a nice AT tyre for the odd offroad trip too 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
