    Tyre pressure sensor system actually works pretty well

    The Formentor doesn't come with a TPMS for actual readouts of pressure, but instead i guess it uses the ABS or suspension to gauge if the tyre pressure is off. The other day after going through roadwork I found a screw in the tyre, wen't to a tyre shop immediately and brought my little portable...

    Fr' Cryin' Out LOUD. My tire guy tried his best but in the end I had to replace it. And the rest , seeing as they already had 20,000 km on them and I could get 4 for a better deal than 2. Kept the 3 remaining as backups (and some project ideas)

  5. downgrading tire sizes? What will be the diffresences?

    Hi everyone. I have an ibiza 5 dr 2004 100 hp, with 195/55/15 tires. I need to change my tires with new ones. I'm considering changing my tires with 185/60/15. What will be the differences?

  8. Tire size on a 16inch evo rim

    I currently have 205/45/16 but would like to have a less wide tire. I don't like how the wide tire makes the car feel unstable on bad Belgian highways. Breaking in wet will probably also improve with narrower tires. There is also a small price difference per tire in favor of the narrow ones...

  10. Largest tire width allowed?

    As the title suggests I would like to find out what is the largest width size for the Cupra 18 inch wheels? I would like to have more rubber on the ground since with these crappy P-Zero's I am spinning all the time as well as sliding in corners. If it wasn't for the ESP I would be sidewise all...

  14. Tire life on pd130

    I took my alloys off my fr today to paint the calipers red (might not be to some peoples taste) and had a look at what the tyre ware was like after 5250 miles. I was a bit shocked as they almost finished and have got about 1mm left to the guides inbetween the tread. Is this usual or is it...
