tyres

Hi guys, Just thought i'd run this past you all, I have just started hearing a low rumble between 20-30 mph that speeds up with car speed almost gone by 50-60 , sounds like a loose or flat tyre is the only way I can explain it, no movement through steering wheel. Took the car to local...

I'm looking to replace the two 225/40/18's on the front of my FR170 Tdi. I'm not driving it 'balls out' all the time, and I would only class my driving style in this car to be gentle with the odd 'spirited' 5 mins. The car does a quite a few miles up and down the motorway (for work use) and I...

I'm sure 'what tyres should I buy' has been done to death- it has on most forums! Anyway, My Leon's front tyres are some pikey crap at the moment, and thankfully the fronts are due for replacement. So, as a starting point, rather than asking what I should buy, what would the car have come...

I just got my k1 back from its first service (11500 miles) and one of the advisories was that the front tyres are both worn on the inside down to 3.5mm, i am currently running on the standard cupra bridgestone 18 inch tyres, what tyres are good to get? how much do they cost? and where is the...

Finally got my 16in alloys to replace my summer 18's, just wondering is it better to go for full winters in our climate or all weather.

Just had my front wheel off painting the so common rusty wheel hubs and noticed my frony tyres are about shot. The cae has done 12800 miles of which 7000 is by me and my wife. Was abit shocked they had gone so quick as 80% of our driving is round town, only gets pushed hard when i get chance...

I'm picking up a set of Seat Sport OZ Super T's over the weekend (Cupra R wheels) which I intend to use purely as track wheels. Question is, which tyres do I go for purely for track use? With a 205/45/16 tyre, I've read that the Toyo R888s aren't a wise move as they're only available in...

I bet you guys are reading this thinking :wtf: but its just a thought... Dont kill me people!!:redface: Im going to get Michelin PS2s for the front 2 wheels of my car, and due to current financial restrictions,i was considering budget tyres for the back 2 wheels which are more than half...

A up fellow Seat owners, Anyone know anywhere that is quite resonable on the price of tyres. I am after 4 new tryes for my Cupra R as they are all getting quite low, not from being a co*k, general ware n tare. Thanks Martin

Hi, I was cleaning out the boot of my Ibiza and realised that the spare tyres size if 175. I am sure the sales brochure stated it was a full size, which I would have assumed would be 215, am I missing something here? Cheers

Hello all. It is MOT time and I am a bit stuck!! My 2 rear tyres need changing but it will be a big service( Belts/filters/fluids) so am a bit skint. Are there any budget tyres anyone would recommend for a cuppra tdi ??? currently use pirelli P nero's but they are ? £100 each. Will budgets...

Right, so it's 4 new tyres time. After looking at the options, and previous threads, i contacted "blackcricles". I asked their advice and a very helpful (and clued up) young fella ran me through all the most popular options (toyo, p-zero etc etc) and helped me make a choice. He told me to steer...

I need 2 front tyres for my leon fr tdi pretty soon and i need some opinions on which ones to buy. Im running pirelli p-zero tyres atm, these are good but expensive, i want something abit cheaper. Can anyone recommend any?

Is it worth the price difference.... also what brand do people recommend?

Aup I knew the front tyres were getting pretty low when i got back from the ring in may but i thought they would do for a few months before i needed to change them, anyway havent really bothered checking them since, silly me, and on the way to work this morning i felt the recogniseable...

Coming from a scooby with Goodyear Eagle F1's I was used to stunning traction wet or dry. However, yesterday in my LCR the roads were pretty wet and round a few roundabouts, where I was taking it quite easy as I'm still getting used to the car and just being careful, I had some very noticeable...

What tyres do you run on your car? any personal opinions which ones are the best?

Hi all, very impressed with SCN - you've helped me sort my sticking boot lock already! I'm looking to trade in my almost new tyres (recently bought 51 plate cupra) for higher performance tyres (thinking Falken 452's?) but not sure where I can get this done, anyone know? I live in SW...

Hi guys, I have a slight issue. Since i bought my car i've probably done about 1500 miles (ish) since i bought it with about 6mm tread on the back tyres when i picked it up (found the hand over sheet) I have now been told by my local garage that i have 3, 2, 2mm on the backs..... I've had a...

Looking into these but am lacking in knowledge on sizes and fitments TBH. Initially looking at Toyo R888 mediums, now these don't come in 225-40-18 but do come in 235-40-18's. Yokohama Paradas come in 225-40-8 but the AVS sport come in 235-40-18 Has anyone fitted these to their OEM LCR...
