Isn't Homologation something that happens to milk?

18" alloys for tarmac - luvverly.... Wonder if they did any major bodywork to get them to fit? I think they actually did to get the widest permissable track...? Wonder why they have dead narrow wheels for the snow? I thought you'd want good traction, and spikes for grip. 5.5J wheels sound really narrow... Or am I just bein' a bit 'fick?

I think its homogenisation BTW - I drink too much milk and must have read the labels way too much... I assume you knew the real word, and were just cracking a joke???

even if the manufacturer

Well, duh!

You know hard it is trying to NOT sound patronising on here??? I did assume you knew, of course! BTW are the smilies having a bit of an off-day? Some seem to be not working occaisonally?! :(

Imagine... I'd still have bought an Octy (although if I were buying today, the Fabia would be gaining more consideration!)

..and a 4WD Accent would make 1 whole reason to buy a Hyundai!

You mean a 'cheap' Toyota?

A cheap Toyota?...I'd rather have a late 1980's Corolla GTI twin cam 3 door , if its all the same to you!

The narrower the tyre, the more weight on each wheel (ie. the weight isn't being spread across a wider tyre), therefore, more traction per wheel (it cuts through the snow better)

was gonna say something like that re the snow tyre.
