tyre

Hi guys I need to get some new tyres for front of my car, 2.0Tdi Sport 225/45/17. Looking at Goodyear F1 Assymetric. I just wanted to check if I need to go with the 'high load' 94Y or if standard 91Y are OK? I ask because when inflated to manufacturers spec of 32psi look very 'squashed'...

OK, so sorry for running ANOTHER tyre thread, Ive read hundreds and still cant decide, so its over to the good folk of SCN to make a decision for me, whichever tyre wins the poll, I will buy. WHICH TYRE WOULD YOU BUY OUT OF THESE?? :shrug: I know people will suggest this tyre and that...

Ive just had my face lift ibiza fr 17" alloys refurbed and ive bought new tyres to go on them.Im now worried about wether they might get marked when i get someone to fit them.Is there special companies who specilize in low profile tyre fitment ,or am i worrying about nothing?I had a bmw wheel...

I took out my spare tyre the other day when i was giving my car a thorough clean. Damn thats a heavy lump of rubber and alloy to be driving around with. has anyone removed there's full time and just risked driving with one of those puncture repair kits that inflate the tyre for you if you...

hey all, am running standard ibiza cupra wheels on my car. the little info sticker on the petrol flap says that i should be running 2.2 bar front and rear, as i rarely have more than 2 people in the car and little extra weight. thing is though the front tyres look like theyre a bit flat...

Does anyone run 16" 7.5J et35 alloys on their Ibiza? I'm wondering what size rubber fits this size rim and if 15mm spacers can still be run? I'm lowered around 30-40mm... Cheers.

can anybody tell me how to switch off or reset the tyre pressure warning light (56 2.0 tdi stylance)

I have an ALTEA 2.0 TDI SPORT (140bhp) DSG. (05) It is due for two front tyres as the tracking is out and needs sorting as they have worn down on the inside edge, n/s more so than the o/s Does anyone know the speed rating for this model the tyres currently fitted are kumho 225 45 17 these are...

I know there are many threads on Tyre Pressures, but none seem to answer this question. I have Altea Stylance 2.0TDI (140PS), with factory upgrade from 16" to 17" Wheels (225/45 17"). Sticker in Fuel Flap says 2.2bar front and 2.0bar back for light load, but I assume this is for the standard...

hi all, new member here. prompted to join after fruitless contact with Seat Uk about tyre rumble. car 08 Leon FR 170 TDI, mileage 18,000. now being advised that tyre rotation with the Bridgestones fitted is recommended, pity i was not told this when i bought the car, or advised in the...

probably a repeat but need to get this solved pretty quick. Need to get two new front tyres for my tdi Fr as the p-zero are pretty much gone now, and going on a long trip in a couple of days so would like to sort it out before then! after bit of research i have think i have narrowed the...

Has anybody had and resolved a problem with rear tyre wear on there Mk 1 leon cupra? I noticed it originally, the rear tyres were worn down to the metal beads only on the inside of both of the rear tyres only, i thought it was down to driving on soft tyres, the outside threads looked almost new...

Well after having my car for like 4 months the Tyre pressure warning light came on. Checked the back tyre and it was down to 26psi. Thought cool neat feature. Got half way down motorway to work and off it went again. Thought oh geez hope this isnt going wrong. Checked my tyre pressures again to...

Hi, My LCR passed MOT today so very happy but on the advisory it was not that my front tyres were close to legal limit. I have only had them 7 months and covered around 5000 miles is this normal expectancy for tyres? I currently have Falken FK452's fitted. Thanks

Servicing my MK1 2.0l yesterday, and noticed that the drivers side wheel has been rubbing on the anti roll bar. Both wheel and bar have gone shiny! This must happen only on full right lock. I also noticed that the left wheel had been catching on the engine tray, but thought that this could just...

We off to the alps tomorrow - our first really long journey in our Altea. So I thought I'd check the tyre pressures and set them to "fully loaded, 80mph". Manual says there is a sticker inside the fuel cap - but there isn't! Anyone know the correct pressures for 225x45/17 tyres? Or...

I checked my tyre pressures for the first time today (7 months in :redface:) Found the guide on the fuel cap and was rather surprised to see that the pressures at the back were lower than at the front :confused: This is the only car I've owned (and I'm on something like Car no.30) where...

Hi I have just got a Mk 5 Ibiza 1.6 Sport 5 door with 17 inch alloy wheels. I am impressed with it so far as it seems easier to drive than my previous model which was the Mk4 edition and the engine appears to be lively. I was wondering what people recommended for the tyre pressures? On the...

Afternoon all. I had my car MOT'd on Saturday and both rear tyres had to be replaced as the inner edges were worn to the core:censored: They couldn't check the tracking as it was at my mates dealership so it's only programmed for theior models apparently. Any way I done about 15000 mile...

:help:We have a 2008 Ibiza 1.9Tdi Sportrider and it is my wife's commuting cart. She has had it from new and it is now coming up to 10k miles. Problem? The front nearside tyre ( Dunlop Sports OEM ) has worn on the inside 1/4 to a point that it is nearly illegal.:cry: I have read that these...
