Set of 4 blankets is cheaper than set of premium tyres. On colder day saves tyres and brakes (for not warming tyres before start). Will see, so far used only few times - need some additional effort - car up, blankets on, timing to get to start immediately etc. But - car is predictable from start . EDIT : that cheap tyre blankets I have bought, seems quite good quality for me. https://pl.aliexpress.com/item/354845064.html?gatewayAdapt=glo2pol approx 4-5 times cheaper than branded blankets. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dry when I got up but yeah it was lashing down when I left for my prebooked appointment. To find the old guy hadnt booked it in as the computer was busy when I rang. Still squeezed me in and nothing to report 👌 i got quite a few looks driving there 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've replaced mine twice so far through development of cracks just by sitting there Mine now bends in the other direction (across the width of the tank) to reduce the radius. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
