Unless your driveshaft has snapped which I doubt then it will be the CV joint, about £40 quid from a MotorFactors.

The CV joint is at the end of the shaft and is considerably weaker than the shaft itself. It is far more likely that this has failed. You know know as soon as you disassemble it.

New tyres would mean that you don't break traction as easily, yes.
