Winter tyres or chains need to be available from 15th Nov to 31st March in the Fermo province of Marche.
I seem to think Macerata province is longer, so don't get caught out, especially if you have a hire car.
Would be usefull if others members post the dates in their own areas

I'm pretty sure Abruzzo is the same period. Regarding car rental, Hertz are now saying due to legislation changes they are automatically including snow chains between 15Nov to 15Apr and you need to have them removed if you don't require themĀ  - have your own?

I presume Steve, you mean that it is an additional cost to the Hire?
Just had my winter Tyres refitted from last year definitely worth it if you live in the Mountains as we do; we have chains as well just in case it gets really bad but the grip on Ice with winter tyres is noticeably better. santa

Oh yes an additional cost, but I'm guessing you have no choice in as much as they insist you have to have them be they your own or theirs...
