tyre

I needed two new fronts on the 2.0 TFSI FR at the first service, which is fair enough. But i've had uneven tyre wear on the rear due to incorrect suspension geometry from the factory. This has left a rumble on the rears. The tyres have worn unevenly. The inside edges are <2mm but the outers...

Hi can someone let me know the tyre size for the standard Cupra 160 wheels and what rating they are pls. Any suggestions as which tyres to buy? regards Fraz

what tyre profile is best for mk3 cupra alloys which im planning to put on my 95 ibiza? theyve got 40 profiles on them at the moment..is this the right profile?

Does anyone know about the tyre pressure monitor and what happens if you fit aftermarket rims? i'm thinking about getting bigger wheels but dont want the dash lit up like an xmas tree

Still got the tyres on from new (Conti Sport Contacts). The back 2 still look like they've got some good miles in them but the front 2 are nearly down to the legal strip. I'm quite liking the sound of Falken 452s after seeing good reviews but my question is this. As they seem to be quite a...

I had a blow out, a few weeks ago (I hit a curb), Called Seat breakdown service who sent out the AA. They towed me to a tyre place and got 2 tyres replaced. My now tyre pressure warning light comes on when ignition is switched on and cannot be reset. I've tried when stationary and on the...

Well Hopefully anyway.... The rear tyres are up for replacement on my Leon, but I'm unsure as to what the correct speed rating is for the car. I currently have two different ratings on there (can't remember what they are off the top of my head - sorry!). Does anyone know the correct...

Just put coilies on my ibiza and now on full lock it's hitting the arch liner, it's not that low about 90mm to the bottom corner of the bumper. as you can see form the pic it's rubbing on the piece that sticks out, hitting where darker in colour to the rest. My question is can i cut the...

I know this has been covered before but all the threads seem to be unresolved. During a weeks holiday in the lake district our altea began to vibrate at 60-65mph, never thought much about it other than tyres need balanced. I've been periodically looking at the tyres as i do with any car and...

Just got new rubber Vredestein ultrac 225 45 zr17 94w. very impressed,, The place that fitted the tyres put 33 psi all round in them. Handeling seemed a bit soft, not as sharp as i was expecting. I got looking and found on the vredestein website using the tyre selector tool, the recomended tyre...

I have an 07 plate Seat Leon with the BTCC bodykit and 18" alloys / tyres. On the first real trip away in it I got a puncture, the tyre pressure warning thingy went off. I got the puncture fixed and reset the button / system. I have had two subsequent alarms go off in nearly 6,000 miles...

Having read many a post on the forum on tyres, i wish to re-invent the wheel. I need to replace my front two tyres on my TDI SE (110) - I have looked around and found Continental Conti-Premium Contact - at Kwikfit £74/each, they sell as: "Targeted at lower, upper medium and luxury vehicle...

I've now done almost 15K miles in my FR TDi on theoriginal PZero Neros. I've had the problem like others on here that the inside edges of the front tyres are worn very heavily and are now below the loegal limit when the centre and outside edge are worn but still legal. Anyway, after several...

Hi all, does anyone know what the tyre size they use in the Leon Mk2 champion ship car? I have a feeling is 235/40/18?

I found a 10mm screw in my rear Dunlop tyre. It was situated about 4 cm's in from the edge before it encountered the first deep tread. As a precaution I deflated the tyre, removed the screw and put the new pirelli spare on in its place (ironically I now have a matched pair of Pzero rosso's...

Right, was all set to stick my new alloys on this week then I read some stuff about 'runout stripes' on tyres - the coloured bands that run around the tread on a new tyre. I understand they indicate which way the tyre is likely to pull, depending on where they are. So, for example, if one...

Hi I need some new tyres for my Altea 2.0TDi Sport. The tyres that are on it now are 205/55/16R. I have searched for these tyres everywhere and there are very few manufacturers that do this size. However, when I search for tyres according to my registration the tyres it brings up are...

ive got 195/45 15 tyres on my motor. it hasn't been lowered or nothing, but the ride feels really harsh on the back end. i.e. i can feel every single bump. do you think if i put 195/50 15 on the back it would feel a bit softer? or maybe even 205/50 15? also, i'm just about to service it. what...

I've got a hold of a set of 17" audi tt competition alloys that i'm going to fit to my fr tdi, what size and profile of tyre should i use? the alloys have an offset of 32, so i don't know if i should use the standard ibiza 17" fitment of 205/40/17 or change up a size? any ideas?

Anyone else have this. And do you know how it works? Im looking to change my wheels, and I know from renaults there is a sensor mounted inside each wheel. Im hoping that it just works using the abs sensors for rotation measuring. Can anyone else clear this up, but Im not sure Im even...
