[QUOTE="fallingoffalot, post: 624024, member: 28771"] I found tacking is quite useful when trying to go against the wind ;) On a more serious note have you tried putting more air in your tyres? I had 195/55R15 all round with load rating of 86, at about 35 psi and it was seriously scary in the wind on a duel carriageway. I pumped them up to about 50 (still under their max of 55) and it was much better. I changed wheels and now have 185C14 van tyres on the back (load rating of something like 102) and 185/65R14 4x4 tyres on the front with a load rating of 92. I've put abut 45 psi in the rear and about 40 in the front - even better in the wind. Oh and lowering seems to help. [/QUOTE]
