Up here in the North East, comes winter time, you have to put all that grease on the bottom of your car, inside the doors etc...
You'd be lucky driving 4 winters without having major rust sports on your car and huge calcium deposits in your carpets. Hell sometimes it only takes 1 winter. Its insane.
Im planning to move West in 2-3 years anyway.

Well last year I out fitted my 2001 Diablo with Winter P tires and had a blast. Was able to drive it everyday no matter what the weather. So this year, I got a set for my LP670-4 SV.
With it's AWD it is perfect. Last year my Diablo 6.0 with AWD OUT DROVE my GMC Denali.
I intend to drive it every day I breath.
After all the SV is the First Lambo I have had that comes with it's own built in front SNOW PLOW!! LOL

Now I enjoy my SV however the idea of putting snow tires on her would never cross my mind.
Truly very cool Roy; be safe out there and enjoy every moment in time

BTW what size rear tire did you come up with and did you install these on the second set of wheels that you acquired?

Roy I think that you present the face of exotic car usage that many dream of and yet even if given the opportunity would not pursue.

Amazing thing is COST...transfered to USA DOllars, was less than $1600.00 for all four. Yes, I did have them installed on the extra set of LP670-4 wheels I just aquired...I think that is a sign that I INTEND to keep this one of a kind machine for quite a few years in the future...

They are the exact same size as the stock OEM Corssa tires. They are produced by P-zero as well. They were not available in the USA, go figure< so I had to order them via a friend out of Germany. (There they actualy use their cars LOL) The tire IS AN option order code for the NON USA market under "Winter package". Both for the LP560-4, LP550-2 as well as the LP640.

I am very happy for you and am doing my best to adopt some of your "use the gals" qualities; they do live better being driven.
With regards to the tire fitment and the associated cost; thank you. I agree that the price is very reasonable.
Have a great time
