Hey there,
Tried looking through my owners hand book and online but cant seem to find much information. Does anyone know if or what the minimum tyre speed rating is for tyres on the cupra ?
The tyres the car came with where rated Z which is good for 190mph I beleive. Do I need to get the same again if/when I need new tyres or can i go slightly lower say W rating which is good for 170 mph ? Also would all tyres need to have the same speed rating or is it okay to have say Z's on the fronts and Ws on the back?
Only reason im asking as tyre tread on one of my wheels is starting to wear a bit and thought Id get prepared and start looking for replacements sooner rather than later.
Any information would be much appreciated.
Thanks
