    The silent majority on compulsory winter tyres has emerged. Best counter from @davethelimey: where do people in flats store them?

        @bazzacollins @davethelimey I believe that in some Nordic countries you can pay to store winter tires at commercial garages.

        @bazzacollins Nothing worse than people overly smug about their £800 set of winter tyres for their BMW etc. #banwintertyres

        @bazzacollins Also, garages here in Germany have storage space for your winter/summer tyres, for a fee of course. @davethelimey
