I had seen the insurance thing on the BBC National news but can't remember if it was snow, winter or both.

The person they spoke to from the Insurance Ombudsman said to phone your company up to tell them as it is technically a modification, but a safer one. If they try to charge you just as for the supervisor, then manager etc. until they don't charge. The Ombudsman bloke said the confusion over charging was all down to the call centre staff not knowing about the tyres and why people are changing them so with any luck they all should know by now!
