Hey guys!

 

The last two winters I've had my Mini stay in a garage because I haven't been able to find a set of snow tires. 

Do you know any website or store that I could contact for the purchase of a pair of snow tires. With "nails/spikes"

 

Thanks a lot

Are you uk based? Because i believe studded tyres are illegal to use on british roads?

Feels like I missed some info that might be needed. 

I am living in sweden but I am willing to pay the shipping cost for a set of winter tires. I will return with more info about the car

Oh fair enough. My apologies. Im not sure how easy it'll be to find studded tyres in 12". Ive just had a quick look and the smallest i can find is 13"

You can still get studded 10" tyres & 12" tyres, you need to find someone who supplys the rally boys that compete on the Rallye Monte Historique.

Demo Tweeks sell 10" and 12" grasstrack tyres and they almost have the same pattern as snowtyres:

And if you really need studs, you can always buy these:
