Evening all, Im after some new tyres, thoughts are towards TOYO T1R's as they seem to get good reviews here. My question tho is about cost, if i were to buy them from camskill where they are really cheap where would i get them fitted and what extra cost would that incur (balancing etc) ...

Hi All, I phoned my local tyre (independent) place today, great peeps used them all the time. My car came with Goodyear F1 Assymetrics on them all round. The fronts have worn down quickly (7months) and require replacement asap. I rang the tyre place and they said they would need to...

Im on the hunt for new tyres as i need 4 rather soon. I currently have toyo T1R's on mine but find they wear quite quickly etc. so what you got ?

Ever since i bought my ibiza last year i have been hearing a scrapping noise. I took it to the garage a few days ago and apparently the wheels, which are standard 15'' steel wheels are scrapping against the arches. There is nothing wrong with the suspension the guy said. I'am getting 17'' on...

Hi guys, i'm looking for a cheap place to get tyres, either on the web or local. i live around wolverhampton can anybody recommend anybody of course i'll be getting some good ones :)

Hi all Around this time last year i had 2 new F1's fitted to front of car. Recently its started spinning even when giving it a bit of right foot so checked them out only to find they're down to the wear markers already :-o. Car only does approx 6k a year and have'nt hammered it around that...

Hi Pretty fed up of going through lots of front tyres, just checked them today as the car has been wheelspinning lots with hardly any effort and the inside of the front tyres are down to threads the rest of the tyre has boat loads of tread left on it, so i really need to get them sorted...

I've done 33k miles on the Michelin Pilot Exaltos on the front of my 08 FR TDI on 18" rims. I don't hang about, but most of my 66 mile daily commute is on dual carriageways and straight roads. What mileage have you got out of a set of fronts on your TDI?

My front to tyres were loosing grip and were also illegal.. went to a local garage to find out the price and it was 100 so not to bad .. however they noticed it was the front left one that was the worst of the inside of the wheel, i thought it would be due to tracking however the guy at the shop...

My dad has a customer who is in the tyre business and is going out that way tomorrow so I'm looking him to see what prices he can get on a few sets of tyres just so I know what to expect when changing mine. Currently I am telling him to have the guy price a set of 1. VREDESTEIN ULTRAC...

As most of you may know, the OEM tyres on an LCR are 225/40/18 which to my knowledge fits 7.5" - 8.5" wheels comfortably but I was wondering, what would be the difference, in any aspect, of fitting a size smaller, width wise, 215/40/18? As far as I know, this tyres size will accomodate a 7" - 8"...

Hi all, please go easy on me I know nothing about cars. A bit of background, 6 months ago I put 4 new tyres on my Seat 1.9 TDI FR 06 and put it through MOT using seat specialists in Cardiff just before the warranty was due to expire. All was well and good no issues. 5000 miles later Just...

For those already running around on winter tyres (obviously not Leon specific obviously but where else can it go) but how do you feel about the tread movement? TBH I'm finding it quite disconcerting when the physics kicks in and the blocks move. Nothing too silly either and its movement and...
