Definitely something in this IMO.It did occur to me that the snow we get in UK is often much wetter than the snow seen in the Alps (or Central Europe)…

Is its possible that there was a lot more ice than on other test days?SUV CC2's.
...I really struggled a few days ago in a lot less snow than I've previously attacked that particular hill. I actually put the snow socks in the van today, which ( apart from skiing ) I've never done before in this country, such is my lack of confidence in them.
I have Michelin Agilis Crossclimates on the front wheels of my van. The van is lowered by that very nice chap Steve at CRS and has spacers. I want to add these same tyres to the back when they need replacing. (Please excuse the state of the van, we were on holiday in it last week and I’ve not had time to clean it).I'm the process of considering a new set of tyres and possibly wheels for my T6 4motion.
Previously on my T5 i had bfg ko2 in 245/65/17 on the Devonports with 20mm spacers. Looked great, the gearing was probably a little too far out for my liking and road performance wasn't great.
I'm ideally looking for something that is better on the road, great in the snow (multiple alpine trips) and doesn't look lost in the arches.
I keep coming back to the agilis crossclimate or cooper discoverers AT3. Agilis i feel will look a little small in the available sizes and the discoverers too large in the 235/65/16.
Anyone have any other options or thoughts?

WIse words, the Agilis Crossclimate seem to perform and look the part,I'd compromise on looks in favour of performance any day.
Got them on my 4Mot, we do Alps in winter, Southern Europe in spring. Can't fault 'emWIse words, the Agilis Crossclimate seem to perform and look the part,
Yeah, but worth it. You'll get a deal for 4... hopefully!It’s just the size I’m looking at are £250-£300 a corner.
I love my CC2's, great for the UK general climate, wet grass mud and a bit of white stuff, but if you are going to do multiple frozen excursions, you really need those Agilis. The question is what will Oli do for you? I've heard rumours he's a good bloke!It’s just the size I’m looking at are £250-£300 a corner.
The CCs look good. Still got my heart set on the Agilis. Thinking of finding some 8" wheels to compliment the 235/60/17RI love my CC2's, great for the UK general climate, wet grass mud and a bit of white stuff, but if you are going to do multiple frozen excursions, you really need those Agilis.

What size is that Oli? Mine are 265/40/20 and I can't find them anywhere for near that Id happily pay that!!Look at the Michelin Cross Climate 2. Fantastic all year round tyre. We are a black circle dealer and fully fitted these are currently sat at £163 each fitted - If not local to us look online and find your nearest dealer.
Thats I have been running for over a year and really pleased with the 235/17 CC2 on Devonports on my T30@BognorMotors. Can you confirm they're good for bog standard OEM Devonports on a T30 please.
