snow

Does anyone have any recommendations on winter tyres for the Cupra Ateca? It is our daily driver, and with conditions on Belgian roads what they are in winter, I want the best I can get. Note we are reusing the rims, so no separate wheel set for winter. Aquaplaning is a regular occurrence, and...

Hi all, I'm planning on a drive to a ski resort in France in a few weeks, and will probably need to carry chains. Unfortunately, I've read somewhere that you might not be able to fit them with the 225x45x17 tyres but can't find anything that confirms it. Does anyone know whether this is...

Tried to venture out this morning but found the front grip on my LCR to be very poor. Is this becouse of the fat tyres? any thoughts on this?

Just a question, what is your Leon like in snow and ice? I have noticed that mine seems very twitchy when there is the slightest sign of ice on the road, not to bad in snow... I have been out 3 times over the festive period in ice/freezing conditions, and each time it has not been an...

I'm guessing it's my tyres, everyone else on the road seems to grip so much better than me who seems to struggle to find any grip in this snow. Goodyear Eagle F1 Asyms.

Hi everyone, I've got a bit of a problem with my snow plough front bumper. I left to come home from my girlfriends house today thinking that the roads look clear enough but about half way I heard a loud scrapping noise. I got out to look under the car and first I noticed that my splitter had...

Good Morning all, I've been very lucky to have already received my Christmas present from my parents. I got a Auto Rae Chem Snow Foam Lance attachment for my pressure washer. I have the following questions regarding the usage of it before I go ahead and try to get it right:- 1) Do I...

Ok, so I've been on this forum for over two years now, and have never done a reader's ride before, so bear with me! I joined when I bought my first car, a 52 plate 1.2 Ibiza. Didn't do any modding, except for a new set of RS6 alloys. I owned the Ibiza for just over two years, and then decided...
