Hi all Fiesta member,

Just got my Fiesta Zetec 5dr yesterday, it is in Sea Grey color, first impression is the refinement compare to my previous car (10 years old pug). Steering is bit light, but feels very direct. Love the comsumption.

A question, what is the original tyres that comes with your car? Mine is fitted with Continental Premium Contact 2, I remember the Zetec in the show room has the Continental Sport Contact 3 fitted. I notice some of the car on carsales are fitted with cheaper tyres:(

Well, I also found a small crack at the front left headlamp cover:( grrr...

Welcome to the Fez world. Hope you enjoy your drive as much as I do. My ws zetec with 16inch came with hancocks. WTF did I get ripped off, they do grip very well I have tried to find the limit.

Not sure, but if you look at the Sticky of New Fiesta on the front page, the Fiesta Zetec in the photo is equipped with Premium Contact 2.

I will post some picture tonight, if I can get home before it gets too dark

My CL came with premium contact 2's on the 15inch steelies... but mine was one of the first into Australia... They may have changed the specs since then.

Welcome to the forums fella

I have Hancook tyres on mine. I know another member has the Continentals. Tyres are supplied in bulk lots to Ford, so more than likely they have different suppliers who do different runs, seems to be quite common place. I noticed three new Fiesta models at the local Ford dealer a few months back, all had different tyres and they are were Zetec trim!
