Currently i have second set of wheels for my XF as it is terrible in snow. Got them when we had really bad winter and they have been great, different car with them on in the winter.
Last few winters though could count on 1 hand how often we have had even mildly bad snow here in Glasgow, I know ASPC is not a replacement for winter tyres but what is thoughts on this if winters are fairly mild.
i dont really want to have another set of wheels for XE and was thinking of seeing how ASPC copes this winter then possibly just switching to winter tyres all year round if ASPC is naff.
Looking at winter tyres in summer, it seems the performance difference is fairly negligible now, i only do around 8,000 miles per year so slightly greater wear not an issue (and frankly the Pirelli's Jag uses are not longest lasting tyres anyway).
